An introduction to Facebook's Graph API which is the primary way to programmatically integrate with Facebook - publishing Open Graph stories, reading data about the current user - their details, likes and interests and friends. Read the full Getting Started guide at https://developers.facebook.com/docs/getting-started/graphapi/ We cover: - the difference between Objects (also known as Edges) and Connections - Using the Graph API Explorer we see how to build up deep graph queries which dive several layers deep into the Graph - How we need to request additional permissions to access more data about the user, or to have permission to publish on behalf of the user.

  17. The King is naked. The GraphQL in fact is nothing, all syntax you have to implement in resolve method by yourself ! There is no syntax, there is no API. If you implement resolve to return always the same thing. Resolve IS NOT automatic, it NOT recognizes the data schema, and NOT return data according to the query sent from client, YOU HAVE TO IMPLEMENT EVERYTHING IN RESOLVE ! So what is GraphQL? is nothing and in fact make only mess because force type system in JavaScript. JavaScript + Types will be C++. Maybe this is what they want, destroy JavaScript.

    How can a user respond to Facebook events in android app using Facebook api?
    I'm displaying all nearby Facebook events in my android app using Graph api but i don't know how to respond to an event, I mean how can a user actually click on the going/interested button such that his/her respond would save into Facebook database.
    Please help me out, i got stuck at this point :(
    Thanks in advance!
  20. One thing the Graph API makes clear is that the developers at Facebook have no clue how to make an API. Almost none of their examples actually work after the examples are published. They keep breaking their own examples. And if that doesn't trip you up, the API documentation seems to have been run backwards and forwards through every translator and every language. Its just nonsense.
