I'm trying to duplicate Pinterest's "Invite Friends" functionality. In case you haven't seen what it looks like, it looks like this:
This important points here are 1) there are multiple recipients and 2) you can type a custom message.
So far, with the Facebook API, I've only found ways to send a custom message to a single user or send a pre-canned message to multiple users. I haven't found a way to send a custom message to multiple users.
Here's what will let you send a custom message to just one user: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/send/
And here's what will let you send a pre-canned message to multiple users: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/requests/
So how are they doing it? How can I allow my user to send a custom message to multiple recipients like Pinterest is doing?

Pinterest Converts More Browsers Into Buyers What's unique about Pinterest compared to most social media websites, is that it reduces the number of steps from discovery to conversion. This means that visitors from Pinterest convert into leads or sales faster than from other social media sources.
Duplicate Pins are Pins with an exact image/URL combination that has already been Pinned to Pinterest before (by you or anyone else). Basically, if Pinterest has seen the image before, then it would not be considered “fresh.”
Share a Pinterest Board with Someone Not on Pinterest So if you have the link, you can easily share them with others outside of Pinterest, as mentioned before. Fortunately, Pinterest makes it easy to get the link. For that, click/tap on the send icon of a board and select Copy link on the Send board screen.
Select the pins, then click on one of the three buttons. A pop up will appear directing you to select another board.
Facebook responded to a bug report about this about a week ago, stating it was "by design". Pinterest, among other apps, are whitelisted to be able to include multiple recipients. How to get whitelisted? Beyond me.
See https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/314701778595814 for full official response from Facebook (and frustrated responses by developers).
