Using facebook oauth 2.0 - How do I fetch the access token
- by Chris Sunderland
Hi all!
I am new to oauth and I'm trying to use facebook connect with my web-application.
I have succeded in getting a verification token but my problem is "fetching" the access token. How do I fetch it? Facebook documentation tells me to fetch the access token with this URL:
https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?'
+ 'client_id=XXXXXXXXXXXX& redirect_uri=http://www.mysite.com/fbconn/index.html&display=touch&'
+ 'client_secret=axxxxxcxxxxxxxxxxx&code=' + code;
When I use this I see the access token on a blank page, but I want to fetch it with javascript (AJAX) /PHP or something. Is this possible? I thought the access token would be appended to my redirect uri like the verfication code but I never get redirected to my page. What am I doing wrong?
Grateful for help/comments
