How to get users access token using facepy for facebook application

Question

I am using fandjango and facepy for building facebook application.

So, this is how my code looks.

from fandjango.decorators import facebook_authorization_required
from facepy import GraphAPI

@facebook_authorization_required(permissions=["publish_actions"])
def ViewPage (request):
    user_access_token = request.facebook.user.oauth_token
    ....
    profile_id = request.facebook.user.facebook_id
    graph = GraphAPI(access_token)
    og_path = "%d/feed" %profile_id
    ..
    graph.post( path = og_path, og_msg = message )
    .. 

When I opened the page, it showed OAuthError. I search around this website and some mentioned that there would be mistake in access_token. When I tried to print the access token on the dev-page, it showed me Oauth Token Object.. i.e., its not "access token" (expected "string" object).

So, where am I doing wrong? and how should I fix the error.

@facebook_authorization_required(permissions=["publish_actions"])
def ViewPage (request):
    user_access_token = request.facebook.user.oauth_token.token
    ....

    graph = GraphAPI(access_token)

request.facebook.user.oauth_token is object type...

request.facebook.user.oauth_token.token will give you the access token
