First time i'm trying FacePager, i think i have followed all the steps in the video but i keep getting an error 400 as per attached screenshot. What have i done wrong ? Thanks a lot facepagercapture

strohne commented 6 years ago

welcome to the Facepager experience :) pls expand the error node to the right to see the error. i guess it is not you fault but bad coincidence. someone else drove Facepager to the limits of the API rate of Facebook, which affects the queries of all other users. if you repeat it now, do you still get an error?

DominiqueJonkers commented 6 years ago

Hi ; not sure what you mean with « expand the error node to see the error” I’ve tried again and here’s the result

strohne commented 6 years ago

The screenshots are missing - if you answer by e-mail GitHub ignores the screenshots.

I meant: click the plus icon in the detail view to the right.

DominiqueJonkers commented 6 years ago

Oops sorry. I'm new at this. Here you go. I didn't see any "plus icon" ; HTH facepagercapture

Ok, the error says something like: your request is malformed.

I guess your node is not a post. You can get comments for posts only. Pls set resource to <Object Id> and remove any parameters, then fetch data. After expanding the node you should see the type of object in the details view.

does not appear in the list of resources, does it? Actually, i'm trying to download all the posts and comments of this page https://www.facebook.com/groups/260121744347724/ SHould i first set resource to Page ? then what ?

This ist not in the auto suggestions but pls see the getting started section of the help.

Workflow:

  1. Add IDs of the pages as nodes
  2. Fetch profile information
  3. Fetch posts
  4. Fetch comments

Please get familiar with the Facepager help and with the Facebook Graph API. You need a basic understanding of how this API works (what type of object, fields and edges are available).

Will do. I thought the video i saw yesterday would suffice but apparently not.

Thanks for your time,

Dominique
