Is it possible to tag a user/page through Facebook open graph API?


I found this post on Stack Overflow as well as some other links on the web but they all seem outdated and seem to indicate that Facebook has not yet exposed this through the Open Graph API and I couldn't find anything to the contrary on the web. I am trying to find a way to post an image to a users wall and be able to tag multiple users in the post title or caption?

Is there still no way to do this through the API or somehow achieve the same result?


Solution

  • Tagging user/page in photo caption

    This is not possible through the Graph API, and as far as I know the old @[user_id:0:link_text] is currently unavailable. Sadly I'm going to say that it is not possible at the time of writing this post.

    I'll update this post with relevant info if I come across any.

    The documentation for how to accomplish what you are looking for is located under the headline "tags" if you follow the link below:
