How can I get list of users who check in my page(location). Check in counts can get by graph api but didn't get the users details.
I need to get feeds from public Facebook groups via Facebook Graph API. The documentation says, that I need "Any valid access token if the group is public" to get the news feed from public groups.
I am trying to call this request with valid access token:
https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/?method=GET&path=vyvojari%2Ffeed&version=v2.8
but I only get few old posts instead of the list of actual posts.
Am I missing something?
Scenario: logged with my Facebook account and using a browser, I'm able to see some photos and albums of some users which aren't friends of mine (with a privacy setting of public or similar) and quite all their past profile photos.
For example the URL
https://www.facebook.com/<userid>/photos_all shows those photos.
I want to replicate behaviour with Graph API but GETting
https://graph.facebook.com/<userid>/photos?access_token=...
Gives me an empty data array.
Same scenario using tagged or albums instead of photos
I've tried to use site scraping but FB website uses AJAX to populate gridview of photos, so It's very difficult.
On Graph API Explorer I've requested and use an access token with all permissions and also a debug access token but I'm still unable to get other users' photos.
It's possibile to get photos of users which aren't in friend list with Facebook Graph API? Am I missing something?
For privacy reasons, it´s not possible to get the photos of OTHER users with the API. Even for the authorized user, you need the user_photos permission.
Scraping is not allowed btw: https://www.facebook.com/apps/site_scraping_tos_terms.php
I'm trying to make a facebook graph api call to get a public(i.e. OPEN) group's feed.
When I go to the group's site there's quite a large feed, but when I issue the API call, I get an empty array.
I tried using an access_token parameter received from the group's adminitrator, but I still got nothing.
Do I have to request some specific permissions to receive the feed?
Note that on some pages I can get all data without extra permissions - e.g. the cocacola page:
https://graph.facebook.com/cocacola/feed?#{ACCESS_TOKEN}
My end goal is to have a list of all recent feed activity for the group on a third-party page.
Page access tokens are diffirent from user access tokens. So if you had an administrator access token, you have to get a list of pages that admin owns. Then in that list you can find page specific acces tokens. After gathering page access_token you can make the API call. But also you have to get Page access permissions.
1) GET admin's pages array with access_tokens
https://graph.facebook.com/[ADMIN-FB-ID]/accounts?access_token=[ADMIN-ACC-TOK]
2) Then get the page access token from returning array
3) Finally you can call page's feed api.
Hope it helps,
When I fetch tagged photos for a user I only get a certain set even after requesting the friend_photos_videos/user_photos/user_photos_videos tags and basically any other permissions list.
However doing a sample call from the fb oauth overview site gives me the entire list of tagged photos for myself with their generated access token...how is this possible?
Just wondering if anyone else has the same issue.
