I did research on this issue, however, nothing worked for me.
I am using Facebook Realtime subscription and graph API to track my facebook page (using page token).
When a user posts a photo/video I am getting following data pushed by fb to my server:
{"field"=>"feed",
"value"=>
{"item"=>"photo",
"verb"=>"add",
"photo_id"=>302522856593533,
"post_id"=>"824413870916335_302522856593533",
"sender_id"=>100005074631221}}
When I use post_id (824413870916335_302522856593533) to make call to graph API for fetching details of the post, I am encountering following error:
*** Koala::Facebook::ClientError Exception: type: GraphMethodException, code: 100, message: Unsupported get request.
Please read the Graph API documentation at
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api [HTTP 400]
However, if user posts without photo/video, I am able to get post details successfully. In case, admin posts photo/video, I am able to get details of that post too.
I am sure about the correctness of page token and code. I think, there must be something related to settings.
I have multiple pages to fetch. Tested with both of these methods Koala wiki provides
#graph = Koala::Facebook::GraphAPI.new # pre 1.2beta
#graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new # 1.2beta and beyond
Some pages have ids and some have not in their uris so in a page like this:
https://www.facebook.com/pages/Istanbul-Kuafor/241559912664906
fc.get_object("Istanbul-Kuafor")
gives me the error message you mentioned so I use
fc.get_object("241559912664906")
if page doesn't have an id(some pages don't, somehow), I use the page name and it works this time.

In an answer to this 2014 post
Unable to retrieve members of a google group, getting Invalid Input
you read: "There is no API to manage consumer googlegroups.com groups programatically".
Is this still the situation in 2018?
I tried to follow the suggestion in answer 3 of the post How to get the list of members in a Google group in Google app script (Admin SDK)? but I get the following error message:
ReferenceError: "AdminDirectory" is not defined. (line 9, file "Code")
where line 9 (and following) is (are):
page = AdminDirectory.Members.list(groupKey,
{
domainName: 'googlegroups.#com',
maxResults: 500,
pageToken: pageToken,
});
Searching to understand the error I found the reference page for Members: list. Using the "Try this API" form in that page I get the error reported in the first post I mentioned.
If it is NOT true that "There is no API to manage consumer googlegroups.com groups programatically", is there a guide to copy the list of the members of a group I own in a google-sheet sheet? (I mean to copy via a function, non by hand exporting and reimporting the CSV)
Many thanks, Roberto Scotti
It's 2021 and I still can't find any evidence there's an API for #googlegroups.com groups, sadly.
I have a Rails web app that allows the user to manage Ads from Facebook. This is done through the Koala API as followed:
graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new(access_token)
result = graph.get_object(ad_group.facebook_adgroup_id, {:fields => "effective_status,configured_status,ad_review_feedback"}, api_version: ENV["ADS_API_VERSION"])
This method stopped working, and it is giving me this error:
Koala::Facebook::ClientError: type: OAuthException, code: 278, message: (#278) Reading advertisements requires an access token with the extended permission ads_read [HTTP 403]
Any advice please ?
you need to have access token. You can get it with gem 'fb_graph2'
Also you need to create a facebook app and get from that your id and secret_key
auth = FbGraph2::Auth.new(ENV["FACEBOOK_APP_ID"], ENV["FACEBOOK_APP_SECRET"])
graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new(auth.access_token!)
This is my code
Koala.config.api_version = 'v2.3'
#oauth = Koala::Facebook::OAuth.new 'app_id', 'app_secret'
#graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new #oauth.get_app_access_token
#events = #graph.get_object('141991029192409/events')
which works fine. If I try to fetch the events from another site like
#events = #graph.get_object('161335993890217/events')
I get this error
GraphMethodException, code: 100, message: Unsupported get request.
Please read the Graph API documentation at
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api [HTTP 400]
That page is likely restricted in some way (alcohol related content, age, location) – and that means you need to use a user access token instead of the app access token. (Or a page access token, if you have admin control over that page.)
With a user access token, Facebook uses the information about that user to determine whether or not they are allowed to see the page. An app access token could be used by “anyone”, and therefor can not be used to access such restricted pages.
I have the following snippet to post to a user's feed on Facebook:
require 'httparty'
token = "..."
message = "..."
url = URI.escape("https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed?access_token=#{token}")
response = HTTParty.post(url, body: { message: message })
This posts to the wall, but no message is included. Any ideas what's wrong?
Edit:
I tried changing out the message for a caption or description and both failed as well.
Solution is to change HTTParty from using body to query for posting form data:
require 'httparty'
token = "..."
message = "..."
url = URI.escape("https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed?access_token=#{token}")
response = HTTParty.post(url, query: { message: message })
Based on the link cited above, it appears message functionality has been completely removed from the feed connection since July 12.
This is a problem for my current app as it is specifically a public opinion site. Asking users to express their opinions authentically is an important part of our design and we'd like to give them the option to post that to their feeds on Facebook as well.
Per the Facebook terms of use IV.2, "You must not pre-fill any of the fields associated with the following products, unless the user manually generated the content earlier in the workflow." The new change appears to change the terms of service: in my use, I am specifically asking the user to generate the content earlier in the workflow, but I still can't use it to pre-fill the feed dialog.
Anyone have any ideas or insight?
I'm trying to use Tornado's library for federated login to authenticate users and get access to their calendar, contacts, and mail. However, when I get the "mydomain.dyndns.info is asking for some information from your Google Account" message, the only bullet point listed is "Email Address". Subsequently, when I check the returned user object after I approve the request, the user object doesn't have an 'access_token' property.
Here's the code:
def get(self):
scope_list = ['https://mail.google.com/','http://www.google.com/m8/feeds/','http://www.google.com/calendar/feeds/']
...
self.authorize_redirect(scope_list, callback_uri=self._switch_command('auth_callback'), ax_attrs=["name","email"])
def _on_auth(self, user):
print 'in on auth'
if user:
self.set_the_user(user['email'])
session.set_data('usertoken_' + user['email'], user['access_token'])
self.redirect('/')
The uri that this spits out is:
https://www.google.com/accounts/o8/ud
?openid.ns=http%3A%2F%2Fspecs.openid.net%2Fauth%2F2.0

Ideas: 1. maybe this has something to do with the fact I'm running on a local machine behind a dyndns forwarder? 2. Tornado's documentation says "No application registration is necessary to use Google for authentication or to access Google resources on behalf of a user" -- but maybe that's not true anymore?
If anyone has thoughts, I'd really appreciate it -- this is driving me a little batty!
Figured it out. You have to set the application properties google_consumer_key and google_consumer_secret.
application = tornado.web.Application(urlhandlers, cookie_secret=cookie_secret, google_consumer_key=google_consumer_key, google_consumer_secret=google_consumer_secret)
