Question

I am trying to loading a facebook feed from my webpage using:

https://graph.facebook.com/177610425663218/feed

For this I got an access token from the Graph Explorer. The problem is that the token keeps running out:

Error validating access token: Session has expired at unix time ...

I know I could create a OAuth login to get a new token but I would like to show the feed on a webpage. I don’t want to OAuth all visitors of the page. How do I get an constant access token for my site feed?

Answer 1

You can easily get an access token. Just create an app and login using app_id and app_secret:

$response = file_get_contents('https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?type=client_cred&client_id=some_app_id&client_secret=the_appsecret');
$token = str_replace('access_token=', '', $response);

Works for me.
