Facebook Graph API to get what someone likes


Is it possible to get what someone likes using the Graph API?

I mean, I do can get my likes with /me?fields=likes

But I can't get other's likes with /{OTHER_ID}?fields=likes

Even if the OTHER_ID likes page are set public.

I was trying to use jquery ajax with the user ID, but the ajax requests from facebook are all encrypted since they use https.

Thanks.

  • But I can't get other's likes with /{OTHER_ID}?fields=likes

    Even if the OTHER_ID likes page are set public.

    That doesn't matter - you need user_likes permission from the user who's likes you want to query; the privacy setting does not matter.

    That would not be allowed anyway. Your app is only allowed to use what the API explicitly provides access to.
