Question

Trying to test the new Open Graph Beta to post a new action.

I’m following the official tutorial

It says to publish an action you would use this POST

    For example, sending a POST to:

https://graph.facebook.com/me/YOUR_NAMESPACE:cook
       ?recipe=OBJECT_URL&access_token=ACCESS_TOKEN

But in the JS call. There is no access token

FB.api('/me/YOUR_NAMESPACE:cook' + 
                    '?recipe=http://example.com/cookie.html','post',
                     function(response) {
                           ..........
                }

I get an error when i try to publish my own action. I have authenticated the publish_actions permission with the app

• “OAuthException” – “An unexpected error has occurred. Please retry your request later.”

Answer 1

It might be possible you are not posting to the correct object.
As in example ‘cook’ is action and ‘recipe’ is object..So the ‘OBJECT_URL’ must be of type ‘recipe’ as far as tutorial is concerned.

Since timeline is not launched therefore when you create your own object facebook provides you a sample url of that type which can be used to test the posting of your app.
