Here are answers to some common questions about the Facebook API Browser. For details on the exposure of users' event lists, which appears to now have been fixed, see a previous post.

Access tokens types
Anonymous
July 22 2010, 11:35:24 UTC 10 years ago
First of all, fantastic job!
I'm currently also developing a web portal integrated with facebook but I wonder why I'm not able to get posts' comments in a group with my access_token - of course I obtain the code to my application and exchange it to get my access_token and login-... I can get the posts, users' info, etc. but not the posts' comments. I've tried to debug a couple of times with your access_token, and it works! Moreover, the access tokens are slightly different (yours is longer :-)) I've searched in FB forums and nothing. I'm thinking it's an application permissions problem.
May I ask you the format of auth URLs that you use to get this type of tokens? I mean: https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/authorize? client_id=...&redirect_uri=...&scope=..., or https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?.... Or should I configure my FB application to ask for special permissions?
Thanks a lot!!!

I checked 2 of my friends, both of which dont know each other and are living in different countries. When I checked out one of their profile stuff here, it says only User 100001040613184 can see it besides them.

cool stuff. I did such a solution on serverside for me. but I cant retrive
"updated_time" - how do you get that?
For example the request https://graph.facebook.com/636599595 only returns this fields:
{
"id": "636599595",
"name": "David Lindner",
"first_name": "David",
"last_name": "Lindner",
"link": "http://www.facebook.com/people/David-Lindner/636599595",
"gender": "m\u00e4nnlich",
"locale": "de_DE"
}
there is no updated_time ...
thx

It's really cool that your FB Browser doesn't require a login to Facebook, that is why I'm curious how do you get an access_token for a first page load?
I know that token can be grabbed from the example links available on FB/developers page for a logged-in user, but it's so monkey job! Your idea seems more elegant and pretty
Can you drop some lines explaining this magic? :)
Thank you

I managed to build and app in perl that access Facebook and I'm doing searches trough Facebook Grap API
Curiously in my case when I perform a search it only returns results in spanish, but I found in your case if I perfom a search it returns posts in any language.
Do you have any idea of what of that?
I'm starting to become mad because Facebook have a few information and anywhere nobodoy knows nothing.

But this - http://apps.facebook.com/peperukablog/ - or this - http://www.peperuka.com/sdk-php/ - will show only one comment (after connecting with facebook and having valid token)
What's the secret with the token ? Why do you get more data than me ???

This page http://www.facebook.com/PeperukaBlog is showing 1 comment only for this article "Scalpez-moi ce sein avec photoshop !".
But using your Zesty - http://zesty.ca/facebook/#/peperukablog/feed - same article has 2 comments. It seems the token you are scraping from FB api page is having super rights since it is able to fetch private data !!
So ??
