Jordan Miller Posted October 20, 2020 Share Posted October 20, 2020 Hey guys, Facebook sent me this alert, and I'm not sure what to make of it. Do I need to do anything? I use FB integration on my forum for users to sign in. Quote Changes to token requirements will break your applications function Action required: You need to generate a client or app token to access user pictures starting October 23, 2020 @ 10AM PDT. As part of Graph API v8.0, we've made changes to our token requirements. These changes will impact your app, BreatheHeavy.com/exhale A client or app token will now be required for querying all picture endpoints, including user pictures through public_profile. Queries without a token will return a generic silhouette as the user picture. If you still need access to user profile pictures, you need to generate a client or app token before these changes take effect on October 23, 2020 @ 10AM PDT. If you no longer need access to these picture endpoints, no action is required. View the full announcement here. You can also find a complete list of changes in the v8.0 changelog and blog post. All the changes are located here: https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2020/10/14/required-migration-token-based-access-user-picture-oEmbed-endpoints/ Thoughts? Is there anything I have to do? I don't quite understand 😆 Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So does that mean on October 23rd, people won't be able to login / register via Facebook anymore? And is there a date when this fix will get released? 39 minutes ago, edudemacedo@gmail.com said: Facebook loggin is no longer working in my forum.

No, it means profile picture imports and Facebook oembeds won't work correctly after that date absent a change on our end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfarber Posted October 22, 2020 Share Posted October 22, 2020 October 23rd is tomorrow so it's difficult to say, but we do have a branch in development to address the changes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
