How to find username given uid in Facebook?


I'd appreciate if someone could help me out with the fql request.

I tried

SELECT username FROM standard_user_info WHERE uid = "100001466426542"

which resulted in

{
  "error": {
    "message": "(#15) This method must be called with an app access_token.", 
    "type": "OAuthException", 
    "code": 15
  }
}

Solution

  • Try using graph API.You will get a JSON response.

    http://graph.facebook.com/USERID

    For FQL,

    SELECT username FROM profile WHERE id = USERID
