I feel like every second question i ask here is relating to Facebook Connect - that says a lot about their API. Anyway, that's politics, i digress..
I'm trying to pull back user details from the Graph API for use in my application (which is an FBML external website - JavaScript SDK for authentication).
I have requested the following permissions from the user: (using the regular dialog)
- publish_stream
This works, and allows me to post to the user's wall, and grab their email from the Graph API.
But when i do a HTTP GET Request to the following URL:
https://graph.facebook.com/uid?access_token=oat (where uid = the user id of the user i'm attempting to grab details for, and oat = the OAuth token i have).
All that comes back in the JSON is the User ID (which i already have, since im putting it in the URL), and the email.
Why can i not get things like first name, last name, locale, etc?
Am i using the wrong URL? Is my OAuth token wrong?
I'm getting the OAuth token from here:
https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?type=client_cred&client_id=myappid&client_secret=myappsecret
UPDATE:
It looks like the issue is my OAuth token.
Because when i go to the docs: http://developers.facebook.com/docs/api
And use the sample OAuth Token for the user im trying to retrieve, it gets all the details.
Anyone know what is wrong with my OAuth token call?
