Ask HN: Anyone else suddenly lose access to FB's API?

3 pointsby brdabout 7 years ago
We&#x27;re in the middle of a project and just saw multiple FB accounts all lose access today. Is this happening to others? Any idea how long it takes to get re-approved? Any chance that a fellow HNer can help us get our request expedited?<p>We&#x27;re just looking to retrieve comments for some NLP work and we&#x27;re only dealing with public data. We expected some difficulty with all the Cambridge Analytica stuff but losing access wholesale really stings.

You&#x27;re going to need to do some reading:<p>1. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.facebook.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;post&#x2F;2018&#x2F;04&#x2F;04&#x2F;facebook-api-platform-product-changes&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.facebook.com&#x2F;blog&#x2F;post&#x2F;2018&#x2F;04&#x2F;04&#x2F;faceboo...</a> 2. <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.facebook.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;graph-api&#x2F;changelog&#x2F;breaking-changes" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developers.facebook.com&#x2F;docs&#x2F;graph-api&#x2F;changelog&#x2F;bre...</a><p>There is no easy way to get access re-enabled right now. If you have a direct relationship with FB, now is the time to reach out and let them know what you need.

Facebook closed off most public data via the Graph API unfortunately. What were you trying to do?
