First, I want to note that I do not want to request the offline_access extended permission. It’s there for a reason but this isn’t it.

I am creating an html5 app using the Facebook Javascript API. The user is on a single page for a long time playing the game. I get an access token at the beginning of the flow with FB.getLoginStatus but this token expires at some point and so I am then unable to query Facebook for the user.

I have tried calling FB.getLoginStatus again when the first token fails but this does not appear to be giving me a new access token.

Is the only way to reload the page? Kind of sucks because the user’s state is disrupted.

    FB.getLoginStatus will reauthenticate a user to your application and will give you a new access token to work with. You should be able to get the new token from response.authResponse.accessToken.

    Are you receiving any particular error after the first token fails?
