Get all public albums of a Facebook user profile - iOS Facebook SDK

Is there a way to get all public albums of a user profile in Facebook? For example if I use my app *access_token* in a URL like this:

https://graph.facebook.com/USER_ID/albums?access_token=MY_APP_ACCESS_TOKEN

I get this error:

{
"error": 
{
  "message": "A user access token is required to request this resource.",
  "type": "OAuthException",
  "code": 102
}
}

Why? Is it the right syntax?

After solving that, How can I do it in Objective-C? Thank you in advance

Solution

  • Even if you want to get the public albums of a user, you need to ask the user to grant the correct permission and login with your application. user_photos is required to see the current user's photos, and friends_photos is required to see the user's friends' photos.
