Q: 

Uploading Photos without album-id using facebook-graph-api

When I use the facebook Graph API to upload a photo it seems as if I have to specify which photo album to upload to. When using the old graph api, if I didn't specify an album, an album specify to my application would be created on the user's behalf and the photo would upload to there. (ie. 'Super App Photos').

Can I get this same behavior (a new album for my app being created without specifying an album_id) with the Graph API? Or, alternatively can I use the rest-apit to upload a photo after authenticating through the graph-api's oauth2.0 flow?

A: 

Graph API has the same behavior. They create the album named after the app.

You are correct. the trick is to post to graph.facebook.com/[profileid]/photos. Not sure how I missed it the first time around.
