So it seems that Facebook has deprecated the public JSON and XML feeds for profiles (https://www.facebook.com/feeds/page.php?format=json&id=[id]).

I have a client's website that was grabbing a simple facebook feed for display on the homepage. They own the facebook page they want to feed from.

I understand I'm supposed to use the Graph API. But it doesn't seem possible without authentication. Is there any way to pull this data without generating a temporary token each time? Asking the user for facebook access every time they open this separate website seems like a really bad user experience.

This seems to be a recent deprecation on the part of facebook (Did Facebook recently disable accessing public page feeds via uri?). Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

For display public informations without authentifcation in Json, create a app to facebook graph.

You just need :

  • Facebookappid
  • Facebookappsecret
  • Facebookpageid

And use this url :

https://graph.facebook.com/Facebookpageid/feed?access_token=Facebookappid|Facebookappsecret

and Tada, you can see the public feed in Json.

Hope help someone.

Thanks @WizKid, that helped! More specifically it looks like I needed to find a permanent page access token. This page had my answer: facebook: permanent Page Access Token?
