I need to find my friends list using Graph API who are using the particular application like wordpress in Facebook.

How to achieve this?

I don't think there is a way to see if someone is using a different application. You can do this test for YOUR application that the user is currently using, but in the same way that you can not see the users who "liked" a specific page (unless you are the administrator), you can not determine if a user is using an arbitrary application.

  • Is it possible to identify using the application id? – Vignesh Babu Aug 20 '12 at 13:51
  • As I said in my answer - you can only do this if it is YOUR application - not if it is someone else's. For example, you can not see if your friend uses the 9gag application - only the administrators of the 9gag application can see that data. – Lix Aug 20 '12 at 13:59
  • Hi, thanks for your help is there any way to overcome this limitation using fql other than graph api... – Vignesh Babu Aug 20 '12 at 14:59
  • I'm afraid not - this is an issue of privacy. The limitation is there to protect the users. The graph API and fql will behave in the same way... – Lix Aug 20 '12 at 15:01

    Here is a post dealing with finding friends also using the same application - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3752119/facebook-graph-api-friends-using-application – Lix Aug 20 '12 at 15:08
  • Thanks Lix :) Is there any way to achieve the same using Graph API instead of FQL – Vignesh Babu Aug 20 '12 at 15:10
  • I do not think so.... But you can simply execute an FQL query through the graph API... What SDK are you using? – Lix Aug 20 '12 at 15:12
  • iOS SDK, I am currently developing the iPhone application to give the statistics like 50% percent of your friends are using the app X. You can also try something like that – Vignesh Babu Aug 20 '12 at 15:15
  • Hmm... I don't have any experience using that SDK - but I'm certain that you'll be able to find how to execute an FQL query with that SDK here on [so]... – Lix Aug 20 '12 at 15:16
