How does the Facebook "profile" access request provide age information? -
i looking facebook docs on permission arrays, , understand in order obtain user's birthday information must explicitly requested via user_birthday
. however, noticed app such 1 screencapped below not ask birthday information, vaguely asks "profile", , yet able obtain exact birthday in age (not age range). wondering how still accomplished? thanks!
note translates following:
@daspianist,
i've put sample (based on fb's graph api sample app) app git at: https://github.com/brewmium/facebook-ios-graphexplorerqueryrunner.git
you can ask permissions 1 one, on ios device, , run complex graph api queries generated from: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer
i wrote (heavily modified) because output web based explorer queries return different results when run on ios sdk.
while @ it, wrote little permissions request interface, it's easy modify permissions testing queries (like on web version).
when removing permissions, it's best go facebook account settings / apps , remove graphapisample list of apps permissions, ask fresh permissions.
good luck,
-eric
followup: @daspianist, sample query runner uses "twitch out facebook" login, see of permissions, vs. dialog screen captured... "simplifying things"... here tinder trying login, , asking birthdate. call bug, not ability circumvent permissions scheme. hope helps. -eric
