How read public posts on the wall of a public group?


I am trying to read the public wall posts of: http://www.facebook.com/TheWalkingDeadAMC

It is possible to do this manually in a browser that is not logged into Facebook by simply visiting the above address.

Using the Graph API, the following link seems most logical (and seems to be recommended by other users).

Reading the JSON result of the above link unexpectedly provides a list of 24 user comments on an unknown entity. I was expecting to see posts by the TheWalkingDeadAMC user on their own wall. Such as:

  • 2012-02-15: We just died and went to walker-killing heaven! Gerber Gear is giving away an Apocalypse Survival Kit.
  • 2012-02-15: The Walking Dead mid-season premiere episode now on Android, iPhone and iPad.
  • 2012-02-14: I'd have to be brain-dead not to want you as my Valentine! Happy Valentine's Day. Send Walker inspired someecards https://www.someecards.com/the-walking-dead-cards

Since this seems like such a simple operation, I must be overlooking something obvious. Any suggestions?

This question is similar to those of:

but I did not find any answers that worked, and I do not have enough reputation to add comments to these existing questions.


Solution

  • Use /posts instead of /feed.

    See the documentation on Pages.
