How can I get all photos in one post using Graph API?


  {
    "id": "11882030_4952296803730", 
    "from": {
      "name": "xxx", 
      "id": "11882030"
    }, 
    "message": "test", 
    "picture": "https://fbcdn-photos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/408410_4952294483672_298434229_s.jpg",

    "icon": "https://fbstatic-a.akamaihd.net/rsrc.php/v2/yx/r/og8V99JVf8G.gif", 
    "actions": [
      {
        "name": "Comment", 
        "link": "https://www.facebook.com/11882030/posts/4952296803730"
      }, 
      {
        "name": "Like", 
        "link": "https://www.facebook.com/11882030/posts/4952296803730"
      }
    ], 
    "privacy": {
      "description": "Friends", 
      "value": "ALL_FRIENDS", 
      "friends": "", 
      "networks": "", 
      "allow": "", 
      "deny": ""
    }, 
    "place": {
      "id": "471607792876974", 
      "name": "TTT", 
      "location": {
        "street": "", 
        "zip": "", 
        "latitude": x, 
        "longitude": x
      }
    }, 
    "type": "photo", 
    "status_type": "mobile_status_update", 
    "object_id": "4952294483672",
    "application": {
      "name": "Facebook for iPhone", 
      "namespace": "fbiphone", 
      "id": "6628568379"
    }, 
    "created_time": "2013-01-17T01:29:59+0000", 
    "updated_time": "2013-01-17T01:29:59+0000", 
    "comments": {
      "count": 0
    }
  }

As above, I posted a status with two photos. I can get the first photo's thumb URL in picture and the relevant link & count information in link.

But how can I get each photo's specific URL?


Solution

  • FQL often provides more information than Graph API. You have to use the attachment parameter of the stream FQL table to get all the attached photos.

    SELECT attachment FROM stream 
     WHERE source_id = me() 
       AND post_id="11882030_4952296803730"
    

    Result:

    {
      "data": [
        {
          "attachment": {
            "media": [
              {
                "href": "https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=471082296...", 
                "alt": "", 
                "type": "photo", 
                "src": "https://fbcdn-photos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-ash3/5826...", 
                "photo": {

                }
              }
