Facebook recently locked down or turned off access to a number of API fields and endpoints: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/changelog/breaking-changes/#4-4-2018

notably, they've largely disabled the events API, including /me/events, which we use to get events and then their RSVPs. originally it kept working even after they announced that they'd disabled it, but it stopped working today. that API call now returns no data. lots of details in https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/185630995395938/ .

https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/1851233821842209/ says we need to go through app review again, but they've paused reviews right now.

#807 is the related issue for handling that we no longer get users' web sites.

i can't tell if there's a new or different permission for this. we already have manage_pages (Enables your app to retrieve Page Access Tokens for the Pages and Apps that the person administrates) and user_events (Provides read-only access to the Events a person is hosting or has RSVP'd to), and when i try to start a new review, i don't see any other permissions i can request that seem appropriate. maybe it's just broken for now until they re-open reviews, and then i'd re-request those existing permissions. whee.

FB announced today at F8 that they're reopening app review. phew. ...except they also announced graph api v3.0 and lots more changes, including possibly that we can no longer get comments...but maybe we still can? not sure. the docs are confusing.

the graph api v3.0 changelog says:

When read with a User access token, the /comments edge returns empty data

... but the graph api v3.0 docs themselves for the /comments edge say:

The same permissions required to view the parent object are required to view comments on that object.

...and the Post object docs say:

For Posts on a User:

  • That User's access token with the user_posts permission, or
  • That User's access token, if that User used the app to create the Post, or
  • The app's access token, if that User has previously granted the app the user_posts permission, or
  • The access token for a friend of that User, with the user_friends permission, if that User has already granted the app both the user_posts and the user_friends permission.

guess i'll have to try and see what happens, as usual.
