How do I find Facebook user data?

You can get user data by using the Facebook Graph API if the user has given their permission to share their data and your app has the appropriate permissions to receive this data. This topic shows you how to make a single request for data and how to have a batch of requests in a single request.

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.

What data can I get from Facebook API?

The Graph API is the primary way to get data into and out of the Facebook platform. It's an HTTP-based API that apps can use to programmatically query data, post new stories, manage ads, upload photos, and perform a wide variety of other tasks.

To get user Email ID you must ask permission for email while logging.

FBSDKLoginButton *loginView = [[FBSDKLoginButton alloc] init];
loginView.readPermissions =  @[@"email"];
loginView.frame = CGRectMake(100, 150, 100, 40);
[self.view addSubview:loginView];

You can get user email Id in New SDK using GraphPath.

[[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:@"me" parameters:nil]
         startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error) {

             if (!error) {
                 NSLog(@"fetched user:%@  and Email : %@", result,result[@"email"]);
         }
         }];
    }

result would get you all the user Details and result[@"email"] would get you the email for logged in user.

To get Profile picture you can use

NSURL *url = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"https://graph.facebook.com/%@/picture?type=normal",result[@"id"]]];
NSData  *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:url];
_imageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:data]; 

or u can also use FBSDKProfilePictureView to get profile Picture by passing user profile Id:

FBSDKProfilePictureView *profilePictureview = [[FBSDKProfilePictureView alloc]initWithFrame:_imageView.frame];
[profilePictureview setProfileID:result[@"id"]];
[self.view addSubview:profilePictureview];

Refer to :https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/ios/v2.3#profile_picture_view

or u can also get both by passing as parameters

[[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:@"me"
                                           parameters:@{@"fields": @"picture, email"}]
         startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error) {
             if (!error) {
                 NSString *pictureURL = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"%@",[result objectForKey:@"picture"]];

                 NSLog(@"email is %@", [result objectForKey:@"email"]);

                 NSData  *data = [NSData dataWithContentsOfURL:[NSURL URLWithString:pictureURL]];
                 _imageView.image = [UIImage imageWithData:data];

             }
             else{
                 NSLog(@"%@", [error localizedDescription]);
             }
         }];

Sorry for this messy answer, this is my first answer ever. You can use FBSDK Graph request to fetch user's all profile infos and FBSDKProfilePictureView class to fetch user's Profile Picture easily.This code is for manually Facebook login UI.

Firstly, you must put this code where login process start:

 FBSDKLoginManager *login = [[FBSDKLoginManager alloc] init];

[login logInWithReadPermissions:@[@"public_profile", @"email"] handler:^(FBSDKLoginManagerLoginResult *result, NSError *error) {

    if (error)
    {

     // There is an error here.

    }
    else
    {
        if(result.token)   // This means if There is current access token.
        {    
            // Token created successfully and you are ready to get profile info
            [self getFacebookProfileInfo];
        }        
    }
}]; 

And If login is successfull, implement this method to get user's public profile;

-(void)getFacebookProfileInfos { 

FBSDKGraphRequest *requestMe = [[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc]initWithGraphPath:@"me" parameters:nil];

FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection = [[FBSDKGraphRequestConnection alloc] init];

[connection addRequest:requestMe completionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error) {

      if(result)
      {            
        if ([result objectForKey:@"email"]) {

          NSLog(@"Email: %@",[result objectForKey:@"email"]);

        }
        if ([result objectForKey:@"first_name"]) {

          NSLog(@"First Name : %@",[result objectForKey:@"first_name"]);

        }
        if ([result objectForKey:@"id"]) {

          NSLog(@"User id : %@",[result objectForKey:@"id"]);

        }

      }

 }];

[connection start];

Get current logged in user's profile picture:

FBSDKProfilePictureView *pictureView=[[FBSDKProfilePictureView alloc]init];

[pictureView setProfileID:@"user_id"];

[pictureView setPictureMode:FBSDKProfilePictureModeSquare];

[self.view addSubview:pictureView];

You must add refreshing code to your viewDidLoad method:

   [FBSDKProfile enableUpdatesOnAccessTokenChange:YES];
