Using Koala to post a user's page on the wall from an app

I already have a facebook app where users are already using it. I already have the option to publish to my walls through Koala.

@oauth = Koala::Facebook::OAuth.new options[:fb_application_id], options[:fb_secret_key]
@graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new @oauth.get_app_access_token
@graph.put_connections(fb_user_id, "feed", :message => 'sample message')

Now I want to add a function where I can get the user's page id and allow my application to publish that page.

Something like below:

@oauth = Koala::Facebook::OAuth.new options[:fb_application_id], options[:fb_secret_key]
@graph = Koala::Facebook::API.new @oauth.get_app_access_token
@graph.put_connections 'the_page_id', 'feed', :message => 'this is a message to post'

The result of the line above:

Koala::Facebook::ClientError: type: OAuthException, code: 200, message: (#200) The user hasn't authorized the application to perform this action [HTTP 403]

I have already set the "manage_pages publish_actions publish_stream" permission in the app side and when the user has authorized the app.

Please, help.

Thank!

The following actions can help,

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :facebook, ENV['KEY'], ENV['SECRET'], scope: 'manage_pages publish_pages publish_actions'
end


  • manage_pages

    gives you access to pages operated by the user.
  • publish_pages

    gives you the privilege to publish as a page
  • publish_actions

    gives you the privilege to publish as user

PS: publish_stream

deprecated.

You need to add publish_stream and publish_actions permissions to the scope of your application.
