How would I GET landmarks, like new job/ married/ moved, etc. from the facebook (or any other 3rd party) API??
I'm trying to make a timeline of 'big' moments using facebook, specifically on iOS
I found an answer here stackoverflow.com/questions/12400522/… that lets you use FQL instead of the graph API to send requests and then returns more exact information.
Facebook's FQL reference is here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/technical-guides/fql/

I am scratching my head from a few days to get this thing done but i am not able to do it. developer.facebook says FQL is not available anymore and graph API do not provide any such thing.
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.2/user/likes
You need the "user_likes" permission, check out the docs for example code.
This will only return the Facebook Pages you like, it is NOT possible to get a list of all external links you like afaik.
I would like to use the facebook /{user-id}/feed to read facebook posts for a specific user. Before I go down the long road of setting up the Graph API, just wanted to get some quick questions answered.
How far back in time does the /{user-id}/feed go to return data?
Can I filter for specific words?
The Graph API returns all posts for a user since they joined. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.1/user/feed/
Keyword filtering was available using FQL, which is now depreciated. There's no way to do this using the Graph API.
I wanted to know the count of the no. of people that have shared/posted a link of my website on Facebook. I came across link_stat that I think will do what I need. The only problem is that FQL is slowly being discouraged and I fear that the code I write today may get deprecated someday.
Is there anyway to accomplish what I'm trying to do purely using the Graph API? Or maybe Facebook Insights?
I have an app that I have associated to my website and have put it's APP_ID on every page of the website.
If there is such a way, perhaps someone could post a sample link using the Graph Explorer.
Im trying to use the Facebook graph api on rails to find for a specific post who shared it. Looking through the documentation and the api data it doesn't seem that this information is available for a specific post. I am able to get the likes and comments information, however not the shares.
Would anyone know whether the current Facebook Api gives that information? Thanks
Using Graph API, do a request to graph.facebook.com/POST_ID?fields=sharedposts.
Iterate through the resulting array to get the sharers' identity.
Example in Python here.
In their recent changes, Facebook now links your likes and interests with community and fan pages. How can I retrieve this information using the old rest API and Facebooker. I tried things like this to get the music preferences :
facebook_session.user.music
but I get a blank string instead of the relevant connections. Is it mandatory to use the new Graph API in order to make this work?
I believe this data can only be accessed via the Graph API.
