  METHOD : GET
  HEADER PARAMETER :
   AccessToken : djbjd

"error": {
    "message": "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.",
    "type": "OAuthException",
    "code": 2500,
    "fbtrace_id": "AQt0krgrd2U"
}

}

Can anyone tell me how I can hit facebook api using postman client .

Answer 1

You only need one GET parameter for this, the access_token parameter. It must be a valid User Token or Page Token.

You can also just try this in the browser directly: https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=xxx

Answer 2

I've been using Bearer Token to input the access token on Postman Client. The cool thing about it is you can add it to the folder and have every query inside the folder inherit it from the parent.

This lets me focus on the call and use each folder as an environment for calls related to the same object Page, App, Messenger and other tests
