Read Facebook Wall From Console App - c#-3.0

Question

Is it possible to read Facebook's wall posts from a console app using facebooksdk on codeplex?
I need to read the posts on Microsoft's facebook wall.
Thank you

Answer 1

Easiest path: https://graph.facebook.com/microsoft/feed?access_token={appID}|{appSecret}. Additionally, if you have a user's access token there, it'll work as well. Since this data is public, we only need to know what app is accessing it, so either kind of token will work.

Answer 2

I'm not familiar with the facebooksdk on codeplex, but I assume it can help you generate access tokens. Once you have an access token, simply curl https://graph.facebook.com/microsoft/feed?access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN to get the wall of the page.

Answer 3

You can directly hit up https://graph.facebook.com/microsoft/posts to read their wall posts
Check out the graph API explorer https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer
to play around with what is exposed in the facebook api

Answer 4

If you're just accessing this one fan page, you have the options of using Facebook PowerShell Module, this is
