Post on Facebook Group wall as an App (not as User)


Using the facebook API, is it possible to post on a closed group wall (specifically a group - not a fan page or anything similar), and have the wall post be created by / identified by the App and not associated with any user? I am an admin of the closed group on facebook.

I have a running service that monitors an email inbox. I would like to automatically create a wall post on the facebook closed group whenever an email is received. I don't want to tie this action to any facebook users since the email that is received isn't necessarily tied to any facebook users.


Solution

  • It seems this isn't possible for the time being since facebook provide an appropriate permission. There is a manage_pages permission but not a manage_groups permissoin
