FQL queries returning nothing #11

Closed hdahme closed 12 years ago

Hey there,

Most FQL queries from fbconsole seem to not return anything, whereas the queries work from the facebook FQL documentation pages at http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/stream/

ie, fbconsole.fql("SELECT post_id, actor_id, target_id, message FROM stream WHERE filter_key = 'others' AND source_id = me()")

returns [], whereas the same query when done via Facebook itself returns all the posts others have made on my wall.

I believe you need to request the 'read_stream' extended permission as it says at the top of that documentation page. You can do this in fbconsole by setting fbconsole.AUTH_SCOPE=['read_stream'] before calling fbconsole.authenticate()
