cant set facebook permissions right

Question

I am using Graph API for Facebook and I'm trying to post something in a FB Group but i get a permission error that I can't solve. I tried giving permissions like I found online but it's not working. Can you please help?

$fb = new Facebook([
                    'app_id' => 'app_id',
                    'app_secret' => 'app_secret',
                    'default_graph_version' => 'v2.8',
                    'default_access_token' => 'access_token', // optional

            ]);
            $permissions = ['publish_actions','manage_pages'];
            $fb->post('/page_id/feed');

Any help will be deeply appreciated!

Is it a closed group? If so, you need admin access to be able to post into via API. — CBroe, Feb 09 '17 at 13:13

$fb = new Facebook([
                'app_id' => 'app_id',
                'app_secret' => 'app_secret',
                'default_graph_version' => 'v2.8',
                'default_access_token' => 'access_token', // optional
                'scope'=>['publish_actions','manage_pages', 'status_update']
        ]);
$fb->post('/page_id/feed');

This should work.

@Sooraq I'm posting as the admin of the page – Dimitris Kapokakis Feb 09 '17 at 13:59
Maybe you are missing status_update scope, updated the answer. – Sooraj Feb 09 '17 at 15:03
