Is the Facebook API free?

In the newest version of the Graph API (v2. 9), we're announcing features that simplify development, making it even easier to build apps and experiences with Facebook. We're providing free access to over 140 million places around the world, the same data that powers Facebook, Instagram, and Messenger.

The REST api has been deprecated.

The proper way to do this is to pass the profile name to the graph api
