Facebook Graph API return only one page of Inbox?

I tried accessing the facebook inbox using the graph API's https://graph.facebook.com/me/inbox?limit=0&access_token=<extended_access_token> This returns few recent messages of the inbox without access to previous messages. There is no paging for inbox. Also, I couldn't find any documentation related to this. Any help would be appreciated.

Is the API designed to be this way?

Solution

  • Try using the until parameter for pagination of your inbox.

    /me/threads?until=2011-05-01

    The new inbox is now called threads rather than inbox. See https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/thread/ (yes in the Graph API Explorer it is plural rather than what the documentation shows as singular)
