VKontakte Javascript SDK user email

I'm integrating VKontakte (VK.com)login to a site because most of the client base there is russian and our usernames consist of email address'. I can get the user information via the Javascript SDK but it only contains 

domain
first_name
href
id
last_name
nickname

I have actually gotten the app to ask for email permissions but it still won't get passed back to the site in the response. Can I even retrieve the email? The API documentation about it is very vaque.

Solution

  • I've been working with VK API more than for 3 years and I can say with with absolute certainty that VK do`t allow any app to get such user information as email, mobile phone etc. There is no way to get this data
