The Facebook API user_interests permission will soon be deprecated. How can I get user interests without calling this permission?
You can't. The endpoint is removed from version v2.3 on. There is no work-around.

I'm creating an app that's using facebook login to get instagram follower insights. Currently I've followed and and successfully made the soloution written here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/instagram-api/getting-started/
But here's the problem. Facebook won't approve the "manage_pages" permission for my app. Without manage_pages I have no idea how to get the instagram account id.
I've tried for a couple of weeks now, and facebook won't give any explanation other than "This permission is not required for your app's intended function, or it doesn't appear to enhance the user experience" and then referencing this https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions
I currently have a facebook support ticket regarding the issue but they haven't replied for almost 2 weeks. And I'm getting a little desperate.
Using below URL for version 3.0 and 3.2 to get the instagram accounts - It works with "manage_permissions" but without it the response is empty.
me/accounts?fields=name,id,access_token,instagram_business_account{id}
Facebook has finally replied to my support ticket and accepted my app review! The approach and guide I was using above was correct.
I have similar problem to get Instagram Id without extra manage_pages permission. I see no point to ask users for manage page permissions (just read it - its includes ads/create/delete etc permissions, crazy) just to get their Instagram accounts id connected to the page. I've found pages_read_engagement permission will provide this data! So, read only permission fixed my problem. Try it! Its better than manage_pages I guess.
I'm trying to update my app to use the new group permissions, specifically publish_to_groups. The oauth process works fine but when I go to post I'm getting...
"(#200) Requires either publish_actions permission, or manage_pages and publish_pages as an admin with sufficient administrative permission"
I'm testing through Graph Explorer so it's not anything specific to my code. The error mentions publish_actions but that has been deprecated for v3 and isn't available to add when I get my token. Looking at the publishing docs https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v3.0/group/feed#publish that is still showing publish_actions as well.
Has anyone come across this yet?
As of April 2018, the Group Edge has been deprecated.

I am trying to subscribe other's Facebook user's page to my application. Application has permissions like pages_messaging, public_profile, etc. Basically this is a messenger. But it complains and keep saying that I need a "manage_pages" permission. Why? I can't find docs in FB api regarding it. Thanks
Hi you should apply for manage pages permission in your app.To create a subscription you should have the manage_pages permission.

I am trying to build a an app that gets user's Facebook checkins. Is it still possible to get checkin data from Facebook API. I did some research and learned it might not be possible anymore.
You can use the following endpoint: /me/tagged_places. You will need the user_tagged_places permission.
Check out the documentation here.
Please help, I'm not familiar with facebook API.
I have a facebook app with a token and secret.
My users are happily authenticated via python-social-auth.
I've installed django-facebook.
I want to create a group (or a fanpage) and make my content automatically reposted to facebook on model.save()
How do I implement this?
Take a look at the Art&Logic blog with their Tutorial: Posting to Facebook from a Django App. I think that's exactly what you're looking for.
They use facebook-sdk instead of django-facebook, though.
