How to access individual facebook feed through feedID after creation

I use facebook Graph API to create a feed for facebook from my own web site. It is successfully created and returned with an ID of the feed.

My question is, is it possible to create a link to this individual feed in facebook so that user from my web site can directly click and open that feed?

I know for twitter and foursquare this is possible, as I have done it.

Thank you, George

  • I'm not sure if there's a "graph way" of doing it, but you can construct such a url given the user id/username and the post id (which you have):

    http://www.facebook.com/USERNAME_OR_ID/posts/POST_ID

    that url should take the user to the post.

    Edit

    I take it back, here's the "graph way" of doing it, using the FQL stream table:

    SELECT post_id, permalink
FROM stream
WHERE post_id = "USERID_POSTID"

    I'm not sure why the post_id is made of the user id + '_' + post id, but that's how it looks like. You can see the user posts like so:

    SELECT post_id, permalink
FROM stream
WHERE source_id = me()

    (try it)
