Facebook long lived Page Access Token

Question

I am administrator of facebook page which DOES NOT have a classic facebook account assigned. So I am not able to create any facebook application as you can see in Picture 1. How can I obtain long lived (never expiring) page access token, which I need to use Graph API? I need to post messages to the facebook page from my server.

Thanks for advice

You do need a User account that is admin of the Facebook Page in order to get a Page Token. Without a User account, it is not possible.

Here´s what you need to do:

• Authorize the User account in the App - which means, get a User Access Token
• Extend the User Token
• Get an Extended Page Token with /me/accounts or /[page-id]?fields=access_token
