Question

I created an app today, as i’ve done several times before. But when i wanted to add the app to a a page i couldn’t find the link “view this apps profile page”, which I normally use to add the app to my pages.

Anyone know how to add apps to a page, with the new “auth dialog” thing ?? I can’t find a link to the apps profile page.

You can do it in several ways:

• Using Add Page Tab Dialog as described in documentation:
  • With JavaScript not even leaving page where this get called FB.ui({method: 'pagetab'});
  • By redirecting to https://facebook.com/dialog/pagetab?app_id=APP_ID&redirect_url=URL
• Via link http://facebook.com/add.php?api_key=APP_KEY&pages=1&page=PAGE_ID
• From Application Profile page (you can easily get to it via http://www.facebook.com/apps/application.php?id=APP_ID or via shorthand http://facebook.com/APP_ID or by clicking on Application Name in the left bottom corned of every page while visiting Application Canvas)
  (note that newly created apps don’t have an Application Profile page – as discussed on the Developer Blog )
• Using the API directly with a manage_pages access token – details in the Page documentation.
