Is it possible to search for Facebook Live Videos through the Graph API?
The Facebook Live Video API is all about publishing video, which is not what I want. I have looked through the search API and there does not seem to be any obvious way to search for videos through it.
What I would really like to do is find a list of live videos in a given area.
Unfortunately, no. Not at this time.
You can get videos for individual users if they authorize your app, but that's it.
I have successfully used the Graph API via javascript SDK to view my live_videos using a user token with scope: email, public_profile provided they were created with a privacy setting to PUBLIC (using FMLE). If I create a stream with Wirecast, it starts as ONLY_ME and is not accessible via the API. HTH

I am trying to extract my posts, via Graph API from facebook. I used some basic code snippets but they don't work. I can not get my feed even in the Graph Explorer. It always says that I don;t have the permission and I have to submit my App for review and provide a video tutorial on how I use the extracted posts.
But I want to extract just my posts, I don't care for anybody elses. Do I seriously need FB App review to do that?
This is what I get with my token from my app:
user/posts requires additional contract signing:
Use /me/posts with your own App, with your User Token and authorize with the user_posts permission. This works without any approval from Facebook - for your account and your App only, of course. I just tested if it still works in the Graph API Explorer and it did: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/108138225915615/?method=GET&path=me%2Fposts&version=v5.0
I need a list of videos uploaded via share dialogue by the user using my app. I can't see any app-specific data added to the video in graph API, however, uploaded videos on Facebook does have the tag of my app when they get added to the feed. I want to track videos uploaded by the user using my app's share dialogue. Can anyone point me in the right direction to achieve this?
This is not a supported feature by the Facebook API. So there is no way to get this done without help from the Facebook team.
Since FQL is deprecated from 2.1 onwards.Is there any way to get all the posts that a page is tagged in using Graph API.
tried {page_id}/tagged but it shows only the page's posts not the posts that a page was tagged.
I want to query the posts using graph API by a user on their own wall that tags the page.is there any way to do that?
isn't this a functionality of the Public Feed API which Accessing it is restricted to a limited set of media publishers and usage requires prior approval by Facebook. Applications to the API are not open at this time.
I am using facebook-cordova -> "Simple Facebook" -> Facebook SDK -> Graph API from an android app and an IOS app.
The functions I use in facebook-cordova to do the actual postings are named .feed() and .share(). They seems to be interchangeable on android i.e. result in the same graph api call in the other end.
What I need is to add images to a posting, preferrably by url.
(I have already managed to do postings without images, using app key and access token etc),
When glancing the facebook SDK for android, it seems there is no obvious way to add images to a status message.
On the other hand, it is possible, right?
The usual way to do this is to post a photo:
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.1/user/photos
Of course the same rules apply to the message parameter, no prefilling is allowed, the value must be 100% user generated.
How to do this with Cordova should be explained here: Phonegap/Cordova Upload photo to graph.facebook - requires upload file
Remember that every photo in your profile is in an album: https://www.facebook.com//photos_albums
Afaik you can upload photos to every album except for the profile pictures.
I am trying to build an application with ColdFusion.
I've been reading documentation and trying things out for days and for the life of my I can't seem to figure out how to display my own data to users from Google's APIs using OAuth2.
For example, I want to be able to display some of my stats to users with the Google Analytics API. How many unique hits, page views my site gets and from what countries. The data is private, however, so there isn't a way to do so. Or YouTube just changed their API so video tags can no longer be seen unless logged in. I want to be able to show my video tags so they can search for related things on my own site, but I can't pull them because I'm unsure of how to do this.
I know how to display and manipulate public data, but when it comes to private data, I'm at a complete loss. OAuth2 is kicking my butt!
Is there anybody that can please, please help me with OAuth2 so that I can allow my users to see my private Google data without there being any kind of log in process for them? Examples using ColdFusion would be so much appreciated.
The answer is more or less what I said at How to retrieve my own private playlist through YouTube API?
You'd want to use the OAuth 2 for Installed Applications flow, and generate new access tokens via your refresh token when your old access token expires. I'm not familiar with any libraries for doing OAuth 2 in Cold Fusion, though.
