For most (all?) Facebook pages, I can access its graph data by getting the last part of its URL and adding it to http://graph.facebook.com. For example, http://graph.facebook.com/AKON pulls up data for http://www.facebook.com/AKON.

However, here's a page that doesn't work like that:

http://www.facebook.com/codblackops

Instead, http://graph.facebook.com/codblackops returns False.

What gives? And is there any way to figure out the correctly graph address from the www.facebook.com/codblackops page (or page source)?

If a page returns false then it is either because you're missing access_token privileges or due to geographical restrictions.

In order to make an access token that does not expire you can use the following question as a guideline: Do Facebook Oauth 2.0 Access Tokens Expire?

  • it appears to be requiring the access token. on the doc page FB has an example with an access token in it: access_token=2227470867|2.AQA9I9hTXD1GX_cI.3600.1314784800.0-100002218899081|bgQcIrFH_k_elp0Jz_LK2Gfpih0 ... will this persist? i read somewhere that access tokens expire. (BTW, this access token does reveal the graph data for codblackops) – mix Aug 31 '11 at 08:21
  • No access tokens do expire. You can request some that have an offline_access token. Check this question out: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2687770/do-facebook-oauth-2-0-access-tokens-expire It has everything you need. –  Aug 31 '11 at 08:27

The biggest problem is even I have no access to that site. It's probably private/hidden, because it's redirecting me to the homepage. Check permissions and try again
