Make simple cURL request like that

$url = 'https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id="id"&client_secret="its  seceret ;)"&grant_type=fb_exchange_token&fb_exchange_token=$atoken';

$ch = curl_init();
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $url);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_USERAGENT, "I-am-browser");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_HEADER, 0);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 10);
$response = curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);


var_dump(json_decode($response, true));
