    I solved this after skimming through SO Q&A’s and here is the solution for anyone who has encountered the same problem.

    Apparently we were using a deprecated permission url string:

    var parameters = new Dictionary<string, object>();
parameters.Add("permission", "email,more_permissions,blah,blah");

    And should have been using this:

    var parameters = new Dictionary<string, object>();
parameters.Add("scope", "email,more_permissions,blah,blah");
