Get Facebook App Access Token in django

I'm trying to get my facebook app access token en my django project. This is my function code:

import json
import urllib2
import requests

def fb_update_app_token():
    app_id = MY_APP_ID
    secret = MY_APP_SECRET
    grant = '{0}/{1}'.format(app_id, secret)

    url = u'https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?' \
        u'client_id={0}&client_secret={1}&grant_type={2}'.format(
            app_id,
            secret,
            grant,
        )
    print url
    response = urllib2.Request(url)

    print "RESPONSE"
    print response
    token = json.loads(urllib2.urlopen(response).read())

    print "TOKEN"
    print token

    return token

But my console output is:

https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id=app_id&client_secret=sectret&grant_type=app_id/secret
RESPONSE
<urllib2.Request instance at 0x104bcdb48>
[30/Jul/2015 17:05:31] "POST /dashboard/ajax-update-access-token/ HTTP/1.1" 500 14003

And the grap api response is HTTP Error 400: Bad Request.

Can somebody tell me what is wrong with it? Thankyou so much.

If you want to connect your application with Facebook or any other social media you just don't care about tokens. Middleware does:
