facebook api test submit for review

Question

I have an app that is using publish_actions in order to post images from within the game to our app's facebook page.

I am using the iOS social framework (SLRequest and SLServiceTypeFacebook) to get permissions and to actually post the image.

All this works and is verified when I use a test facebook account.

However, I am trying to submit this for review to facebook so I can enable it for the rest of my users. but I am unable to submit because it thinks I am not making the actual API call.

It looks like you haven't made any API requests to publish content with the publish_actions permission in the last 30 days. You need to test this permission in your app with any account listed in Roles before you can submit for review. It looks like you haven't tested this permission because no API request has been made against publish_actions in the last 30 days.

I have tested and confirmed that I can successfully use the publish_actions API to post from the app to the app's facebook page. How can I get facebook to allow me to actually submit this permission for review?

Answer 1

Are you making a direct API call to any of the APIs that need publish_actions permission? There are some instances where you do not need this permission, namely, if you are using a share dialog. An example of an API that needs publish_actions permission is a POST request to /{user-id}/feed. Also if you are making a post as a page, you might need publish_pages permission instead. e.g. Making a call to {page-id}/feed Depending on your use case, try and make a POST request to any endpoint that makes use of these permissions. That should help get rid of the error.
