Facebook Graph API

Question

Can I use the Facebook Graph API without the creation of my Facebook Application? As I understand it, for each operation I need to use the OAuth key. And I can only get user OAuth key if they authorize my Facebook application. Am I right? I need to get user feed, and post to it.

Answer 1

No, You can't do that as Facebook Graph API needs access token which u can get only by authorising your logged-in user by your (Created) App in Facebook.

Answer 2

You can use this tool to dynamically generate an access_token for testing: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/

Also, check out RapidAPI here. I've specifically linked you to the FacebookGraphAPI block. Here you can instantaneously connect to numerous Facebook endpoints. The platform will generate a code snippet that you can directly insert into your code.

Answer 3

I think there is FBML (facebooks mark up language) which you can embed on your site which can handle some basic tasks like commenting or liking.

Answer 4

Facebook Graph Api needs your APP ID which you can only get from your Facebook application. So i think its not possible to post data on facebook without having Application ID.

Answer 5

Depends on what you want to do, for most tasks you have to have an app id... but If you want to get the amount of shares for a certain page, for example, you can do it with no app ID.
