Facebook access Token with longer expiration

Question

I am trying to follow this tutorial on getting a token with longer expiration time . The Facebook connect is done on the client side (Js sdk). The steps I take are:

• enabled 'deprecate offline_access' on my app settings page
• retreive the access_token as normal
• curl "https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?
  client_id=APP_ID& client_secret=APP_SECRET& grant_type=fb_exchange_token& fb_exchange_token=access_token"

This always returns the same exact same access token with expiration of 2 hours, shouldn't it return a token (same or not as access_token) that is valid 60 days ?

Thanks

Answer 1

As of right now, in my experience, it seems that the 60 day tokens are returned for new users who add the app after the 'deprecate offline_access' setting is enabled. Older users, from prior to setting the 'deprecate offline_access' setting seem to be stuck at 2 hour lifetime.

I also have some tests that seem to indicate that setting the 'Enhanced Auth Dialog' setting in addition to the 'deprecate offline_access' setting is required to get long lived tokens.
