I have an app that uses the Graph API to read a feed from the Facebook group:
https://www.facebook.com/groups/1396648167216137/
Neither my app nor the Graph API Explorer on the Facebook developers home pages return any posts later than the 16th October 2013 yet later posts are clearly visible on the group page.
Any suggestions as to how to get the latest posts greatly appreciated.
Kind regards,
Rob
Just to follow this up. Turns out the 16th was purely coincidental, no posts or comments had been made except for comments on a particular post. What I was actually running into was the comment paging. Solved by adding &comments.limit=100 to the end of the URL. Answer obtained here
Kind Regards,
Rob

I am using FB graph API to fetch people's posts on community pages, such as this
I used the graph API explorer with url
However, if I try the /tagged url with a non community page such as this, I can retrieve people's posts on the page.
Do anyone know why /tagged only work in non community page?
Thank you!
Not really sure what do you mean with "Community pages" but this is a problem of permissions. Quoting the docs:
/{page-id}/tagged shows the posts to this page. It will also show some
posts in which the page has been tagged. It will only show tagged
posts where the person who made the post have installed the same app.
Link to the docs: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/page/feed
So probably you do not have permissions to see post for that particular page.
I hope it helps.
Is there a way to know if a user is using my Facebook app in this moment? I tried to browse the Facebook Api Docs but is not very documented.
Thank you.
I suggest to track with last photo uploaded, last like, last comment, last post in time line etc. Which seems available in Facebook API.
Not that easy but acceptable.
I have a blog on Wordpress with installed "Simple Facebook comments" plugin. It working couple of years but some time ago i found out that for some posts Facebook API showing me "N" comments but display none.
I tried to add comment to this kind of post and comments counter showing "N+1" but i was able to see only one most recent comment. I was trying to receive all of existing comment via Open Graph API (example: http://graph.facebook.com/comments?id=http://blog.spafinder.ca/breaking-free-toxic-relationship/) but it returning only one comment after that i was requested comments number for the same post (REST API: http://api.facebook.com/restserver.php?method=links.getStats&format=json&urls=http://blog.spafinder.ca/breaking-free-toxic-relationship/ , GRAPH API: http://graph.facebook.com/?ids=http://blog.spafinder.ca/breaking-free-toxic-relationship/) and it told me that i have 2 comments.
I tried to clear OpenGraph cache, request comment number with another resources and it wasn't help.
Do you have any idea why it happening? I would be a very grateful if somebody will told me the possible way to solve that problem.
Thanks.
Based on the url you posted, that plugin seems to be using the Facebook Rest Server API which has been deprecated as noted below...
We announced the Graph API at f8 2010. Since that event, we have been working hard to ensure that the most important functionality that developers were using with the REST API is available via the Graph API. For the past several months we have been slowly launching new features in the Graph API to bring it up to parity with the REST API
This article is 3 years old so I wouldn't be surprised to find out that there are bugs in the existing deprecated API since they have dropped support for it. That said, be sure to read the documentation of the plugin you're using, they might have updated the plugin.
Also, if you wish to do this job manually, rather than depending on a third-party, be sure to read the documentation regarding this endpoint because permissions and default filters can affect the output...

I am using facebook graph api to post a status to Facebook via my app.
The problem is I can't see the status post in NewsFeed, but in the
Wall of the user.
I just used me/feed accordingly to GraphAPI documentation.
When I searched this issue, I saw quite similar thing http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/302089206530370.
This one is quite similar one too .Facebook graph post on feed is not visible in newsfeed, but that api is deprecated a long time ago and not the same API that I am using.
This one is exactly the same like my issue. http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/353691264693202 but sadly, facebook doesn't provide info in detail. can't find the duplicate issue.
I asked for scope=user_photos,read_stream,publish_stream,offline_access,user_status,friends_status grant access for my app.
Is there anything that I missing out?
Edited: I confirmed my setting of whether I have set to hide my app post in my newsfeed too. But I didn't set it.
I think that is the facebook bug. already found the similar one reported http://developers.facebook.com/bugs/372776119424090?browse=search_4fc3354fb769c0726100997
For the time being, I can only wait for Facebook to fix that bug.
Thanks.
Got a issue with Facebook Graph API. I want to read page notifications via Graph API. But Facebook documentation only states about user's notification.
Following only returns a user's notification (the user who provided the access token for this.)
http://graph.facebook.com/me/notifications
I did following techniques. But no luck.
01. But i tried with different urls with access token provided by the page. (with my stupid guess work by replacing page-id for me)
http://graph.facebook.com/page-id/notifications
02. Checked with Insights API. But Insights doesn't provide a straight forward solutions. This is more like stats. But all i just need a list of latest user/fan/post actions in the page.
https://graph.facebook.com/page-id/insights/field
Some background about my App (hope no issues with this as other API's working),
Platform .Net 4.0
Library I am using is C# Facebook SDK
Facebook documentation doesn't help much. I have spent a few day on this to find a solution for this. Just wondering if any of you guys came across this issue and solved. I hope i didn't put a duplicate question here, as i did search for few days on Stackoverflow too.
Thanks.
There isn't a page notification API. I don't believe there is any way to directly query this data.
You can get notifications of changes to a Facebook page using the Real-Time API. https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/realtime/
Facebook now allows you to read Page unread notifications by querying the edge: {page-id}/notifications.
See https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.7/page/notifications
From the FB Page docs for the notifications edge...
Notifications for this Page. Deprecated April 30, 2019.
Looks like the only way to track Page notifications at the moment is via the realtime Webhooks for a page, which isn't the same as reading the notifications from FB but it appears to be where we're at...until FB changes their mind again. ;)
