Facebook Graph API Integration into my API

Question

I am developing an API that will be used solely for a mobile app, the mobile app allows users to log in via facebook and grant the app permission to access the users facebook friends list and post on their wall.

However I have some confusion as to where I integrate into the API and where the app developers integrate. I assume the login with facebook part is done by the app developers, who then pass the facebook access token into the API for it to store/retrieve friend list and make posts on the users wall.

Am I correct in assuming this? And if so can I test my part the implementation by retrieving friends list without having the app developers do their part first?

Thanks

Answer 1

First you have to register your app with your facebook id in developer.facebook.com then you will get the app id which you have to put into facebook login that generate access token for the process

Answer 2

To make any call to the Facebook API you need an app ID. after receiving it, you can make calls to the API from your controller using the Facebook php SDK
