Can someone tell me why this works: SELECT name FROM user WHERE uid IN

  • 0

Can someone tell me why this works:

SELECT name FROM user WHERE uid IN (SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1=me()) AND strpos(lower(name),"jo") >=0

however this does not:

"SELECT url, id, type, site FROM object_url WHERE strpos(lower(url), 'sephora') >= 0"

When I put it in http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/rest/fql.query/

I get this response:

Your statement is not indexable. The WHERE clause must contain an indexable column. Such columns are marked with * in the tables linked from http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql

however “url” in indeed indexable.

any thoughts? I’ve already scoured stackoverflow but no answers found.

    Site isn’t indexable, it’s only selectable. It doesn’t have an * next to it here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/object_url/

    you need to use url or id as the indexable column, so basically one of those needs to be in your where clause.
