Find Facebook user (url to profile page) by known email address
I have a list of email addresses from people that use my app. Is it possible to query for their facebook public data by email address?
Thanks Richard.
With the Facebook Graph API, you can access a wide range of user data, including user information such as name, email address, birthday, and friends list in JSON. You can also access information about pages that a user has liked or engaged with on Facebook, as well as events and photos that they have posted or shared.
With the Facebook API, you can access and read public data for Facebook Pages that you are not the admin of. This data, including business metadata, public comments, and posts, can be used for competitive analysis and benchmarking.
If you want to download a copy of your information from Facebook, you can use the Download Your Information tool. Tap in the top right of Facebook. Scroll down and tap Settings. Scroll down to Your Facebook Information and tap Download Your Information.
Any application can fetch users(application authorized users) facebookID in user basic information via graph api or fql. for exa. https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=[facebook returned access token]
it will return these information in JSON
{
"id": "100001114785800",
"name": "Stella Jackson",
"first_name": "Stella",
"last_name": "Jackson",
"link": "http://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001114785800",
"birthday": "04/16/1987",

"female"
],
"timezone": 5.5,
"locale": "en_US",

}
Once you get user ID you can fetch user picture via graph api
https://graph.facebook.com/[user facebook id]?fields=id,name,picture https://graph.facebook.com/100001114785800?fields=id,name,picture
OR
https://graph.facebook.com/100001114785800/picture?type=small
type can be small, normal, large, square
Best luck Richard
