Facebook Graph API: Creating app test-user friends that are not app users

I want to test Facebook App Invite for friends that are not app users.

I need to create friends for a Facebook app test user but I don't want those friends to already be app users.

Currently App Invite shows me all my friends which happen to be app test users.

Thanks!

Solution

  • Several ways to do that:

    • Simply don’t set the option “Authorize Test Users for This App?” when creating them via app dashboard; or

    • create them via API – when doing that, you can specify if they should have the app already “installed” or not as well; or

    • log in as them on Facebook, and remove the app from their settings.
