DESCRIPTION

Methods for accessing Permissions functions with WWW::Facebook::API

SUBROUTINES/METHODS

begin($call_as_apikey)

Mimics "begin_permissions_mode" of official PHP API. Successive calls will automatically insert the "call_as_apikey" key and whatever value is passed in as <$call_as_apikey>.

    $client->permissions->begin(
        call_as_apikey => $key,
    );

end

Mimics "end_permissions_mode" of official PHP API. Opposite of "begin".

    $client->permissions->end(
        call_as_apikey => $key,
    );

grant_api_access

This method gives another application access to certain API calls on behalf of the application calling it.

You MUST supply the API key of the application you want to grant access to. You MAY also supply an array of methods/namespaces for which access should be granted.

    $client->permissions->grant_api_access(
        permissions_apikey => $otherkey,
        method_arr => '["admin."]'
    );

You MUST supply the API key of the application you want to check.

    $client->permissions->check_available_api_access(
        permissions_apikey => $master_key
    );

revoke_api_access

This method revokes the API access granted to the specified application.

You MUST supply the API key of the application for which you want to revoke access.

    $client->permissions->revoke_api_access(
        permissions_apikey => $other_key
    );
