Question

I am able to connect to facebook using the C# SDK via my console application but the Facebook Access Key expires every couple of hours and I have to be logged in to my facebook account for it to work at all.

I am using the following code to enumerate photo albums :

var usertoken = FBImageChecker.Properties.Settings.Default.FBUserAccessKey;
var fbclient = new FacebookClient(usertoken);
dynamic albums = fbclient.Get("me/albums");

Am I correct in thinking I should be using oAuth now? if so, does anyone have an example which could work in my case?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Answer 1

finally managed to get this working using oauth, unfortunately facebooks documentation is not exactly clear and although there are many examples online as pointed out by @ramhound a lot of them apply to older authentication models so it was a case of trial and error.
