Question

Hi I just define my custom action on facebook using open graph. After creating the action when i want to submit the action it creates the error.

 Publish Actions
You must publish at least one action to your Timeline using this action type. Review the documentation. 

And give me the link to this page where I can see only the urls of graph api. If I am doing some thing wrong?

Can any body please tell me how to get rid off this error? How can I publish action on my timeline so that I can submit my action for approval?

Regards

Answer 1

You should test the action first on your site/app. Facebook will check your timeline and then only Facebook approves it.

[EDIT]

Submitting is for allowing public to use those. But admin/developers can use publish actions on Facebook. To publish these actions on timeline, you can use graph api explorer or using php or js or etc

[EDIT]

Actions are defined through the App Dashboard. Once an application has
defined the types of actions that it publishes, the application can
invoke the Graph API to publish action instances to Open Graph — this
connects the current user with an appropriate object instance via the
action.

POST /me/{namespace}:{action-type-name}

The following call establishes
a Cook connection between the current user and a Pumpkin Pie (an
instance of the Recipe object type):

https://graph.facebook.com/me/recipebox:cook?  
 recipe=http://www.example.com/pumpkinpie.html&access_token=YOUR_ACCESS_TOKEN

Here is another example using the Javascript SDK:

 FB.api('/me/recipebox:cook', 'post',    { recipe :
 'http://www.example.com/pumpkinpie.html' });

FYI: Post Actions on Timeline
