I have a Facebook application which was working a year before (version 1.0 of the API). Now I am trying to make it work again but it seems the FQL query is not getting any data.
For instance I have this simple query:
try{
$mailbox_email_num = $facebook->api(
array(
'method'=>'fql.query',
'query'=>"SELECT total_count,unread_count FROM mailbox_folder WHERE viewer_id = xxxxx"
)
);
} catch (FacebookApiException $e){
print_r ($e);
}
It works well through the online FQL editor and also before the updates of the API.
Now, I get an error code 606 -- "Wrong number of arguments passed into the function"(http://www.fb-developers.info/tech/fb_dev/faq/general/gen_10.html) while I am running the application.
Does anyone know why and how it can be solved?
Do I need to mention somewhere the version of the API that I want to use?
There are many errors that Facebook placed under the 606 code. This particular one is most likely
{
"error": {
"message": "(#606) You can only fetch messages for one user",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 606
}
}
You are probably using an id in the viewer_id column for which you don't have access for.

I'm trying to make an API call with the folowing URL
act_XXXXXXXX/insights?fields=ad_id,clicks,unique_clicks,impressions,reach,spend,date_start,date_stop,actions,action_values,unique_actions,account_id&level=ad&breakdowns=platform_position&time_range={"since":"2019-09-07","until":"2019-09-07"}
and the response is :
{
"error": {
"message": "(#100) Current combination of data breakdown columns (action_type, platform_position) is invalid ",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 100,
"fbtrace_id": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"
}
}
the reason is in "breakdown" value = "platform_position"
but the problem is that I need exactly that breakdown :(
when I do an API call and change "breakdown" in URL to something else, for example to "publisher_platform":
act_XXXXXXX/insights?fields=ad_id,clicks,unique_clicks,impressions,reach,spend,date_start,date_stop,actions,action_values,unique_actions,account_id&level=ad&breakdowns=publisher_platform&time_range={"since":"2019-09-07","until":"2019-09-07"}
it is OK and responds with data.
I don't know why it happens because I'm not specifying any "action_type" breakdown but it tells that I am :(
What I've tried:
I tried to remove all the parameters from that URL one by one but it still returns an error
The main questions are: why the API call for "breakdown" value = "platform_position" fails and how to make it work.
Thanks.
PS: you can use FB API testing tool to test requests to FB api.
I'm using API version v8.0
You will need both publisher and position:
breakdowns=publisher_platform,platform_position
I have two apps on facebook. In one, I can make API calls. In the other, I can not.
I checked the configuration and the settings are the same.
Can you help me?
Example: https://graph.facebook.com/860599774051206/?access_token=APP_ID|APP_SECRET
https://graph.facebook.com/860599774051206/notifications?template=#[860599774051206]test&access_token=APP_ID|APP_SECRET&method=post
the error is:
{ "error": { "message": "Unsupported post request. Object with ID
'860599774051206' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing
permissions, or does not support this operation. Please read the Graph
API documentation at developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api",
"type": "GraphMethodException", "code": 100, "fbtrace_id":
"BRW7BqFeEER" } }
RESOLVED:
Any app can change the user_id
In an app the user_id is 962084030569446, in the other 860599774051206
Thakns for all.
I faced this issue when I was trying to post a response to an user from a page. I used the graph API me/accounts and got the list of pages. From there I retrieved the access_token of the page from which I'm going to post the response. I got the same error mentioned in the question.
The issue for me is the user account to which I was supposed to respond is locked due to security. This is the error I got from facebook when I tried to login
You can't use Facebook at the moment
This is the error I got for the post api call
{
"error": {
"message": "Unsupported post request. Object with ID 'xxx' does not exist, cannot be loaded due to missing permissions, or does not support this operation. Please read the Graph API documentation at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api",
"type": "GraphMethodException",
"code": 100,
"error_subcode": 33,
"fbtrace_id": "yyy"
}
}
Once the account security is resolved, the issue is resolved.
While unrelated to the OP problem I thought I would contribute, I got this error when posting to the Offline Events endpoint https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/<business_id>/events. I had posted from a node.js app successfully, then when porting the approach to a .Net implementation in our Linnworks order management system, got this error.
Turned out, I had mis-typed the access_token parameter that goes in the form data, i.e.
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection formFields = new System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection();
formFields.Add("accessToken", accessToken);
formFields.Add("upload_tag", "store_data");
formFields.Add("data", data);
Should have been:
System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection formFields = new System.Collections.Specialized.NameValueCollection();
formFields.Add("access_token", accessToken);
formFields.Add("upload_tag", "store_data");
formFields.Add("data", data);
Getting the access_token field wrong in this way caused this 'Object with ID does not exist' which is a bit of a red herring. I guess that, once the access_token value was not provided, no objects could be enumerated in our account because the request didn't authenticate in order to provide permissions, and so the object was 'not found'
(you do not have to use NameValueCollection, this is just a by-product of me using the multipart post implementation suggested here Upload files with HTTPWebrequest (multipart/form-data))
In my case - I had to use the app-id to get the list of pages using me/accounts.
Once I identify the page that I want to post the message to, I have to use the page-id to feed page-id/feed.
This solved the issue.
For example:
$response = $fb->get('/me/accounts', (string)$selBehRow1["fb_app_access_token"]);
foreach ($response->getDecodedBody() as $allPages)
{
foreach ($allPages as $page )
{
if (isset($page['id']) && $page['id'] == $selBehRow1['fb_page_id'])
{ // Suppose you save it as this variable
$appAccessToken = (string) $page['access_token'];
break;
}
}
}
$response = $fb->post(
//this is wrong: '/'.$selBehRow1["fb_app_id"].'/feed',
'/'.$selBehRow1["fb_page_id"].'/feed',
array(
"message" => "$msg",
"link" => "$link",
//"picture" => "http://www.example.net/images/example.png",
"name" => "$name",
"caption" => "$caption",
"description" => "$description"
),
$appAccessToken
);
}
i think post_id is wrong you can check it once
https://graph.facebook.com/860599774051206_4548643168486465/?access_token=APP_ID|APP_SECRET
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v3.3/object/comments
use this api for replies to the post
Method: POST
https://graph.facebook.com/860599774051206_4548643168486465/comments?access_token=APP_ID|APP_SECRET
body:
{
"message": "Thanks"
}
You need to use GET request instead POST. Look at the documentation
In my case I needed to Complete Setup
I've a very strange problem with Facebook Query Language!
Since 2-3 weeks ago my FQL Graph Api queries stopped working for no reason on FB Developer! They are PERFECTLY worked earlier!
Even as simple one as this:
fql?q={"eid":"SELECT eid FROM event WHERE creator=me()"}
"error": { "message": "(#601) Parser error: unexpected '{' at position 0.", "type": "OAuthException", "code": 601
{ and } no longer supported from now on?? Is there any solution?
Thanks in advance!
You can test the query here if you want:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer
Looks like they are stricter now about correctly URL-encoded data.
If you URL-encode your query to %7B%22eid%22%3A%22SELECT+eid+FROM+event+WHERE+creator%3Dme%28%29%22%7D, it works: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer?method=GET&path=fql%3Fq%3D%257B%2522eid%2522%253A%2522SELECT%2Beid%2BFROM%2Bevent%2BWHERE%2Bcreator%253Dme%2528%2529%2522%257D
For some of my fanpages, it gives OAuth error , once you try to get data using /PAGE_ID/insights/page_fans/lifetime Facebook API.
What excatly happened was, I used PAGE_ID/insights/page_fans/lifetime?until=2013-05-04. It pulling through data. But if I use PAGE_ID/insights/page_fans/lifetime?until=2013-05-03 , that means same query a day before the first query, it gives
{
"error": {
"message": "An unknown error has occurred.",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 1
}
}
Does any have proper explanation for this?
you cannot use date range in /insights/page_fans/lifetime
query it without any parameters
you can combine
/insights/page_fans/lifetime
/insights/page_fan_removes
/insights/page_fan_adds
to get a daily reading
Is anyone else experiencing problems with Graph API requests that use UNIX time stamps this morning? For example, last night the following query worked, but it does not work this morning- perhaps it has something to do with the recent server issues reported by Facebook last night?
Query entered into Facebook Graph API Explorer:
/[pageid]/posts&since=1311062400&until=1313740800?fields=id&limit=10000
Error message:
{
"error": {
"message": "Unknown path components: /posts&since=1311062400&until=1313740800",
"type": "OAuthException",
"code": 2500
}
}
Your query is incorrect
/posts&since=1311062400&until=1313740800

That should be ?
/posts?since=1311062400&until=1313740800
