Login to Facebook permission API

I have an iPhone app that uses Facebook Login and I have a specific question. When a user asks "XYZ App would like to post to Facebook for you. Who needs to be able to see these posts?"

-Public -Friends -Only me

The question is. Is it possible to find out which choice was made by the user, whether he chose Public, Friends or Only Me?

Any ideas or thoughts on this matter are greatly appreciated.

No, the app cannot see what privacy settings the user has allowed for the app.

Hi, this is a rather difficult question.



But Facebook docs take a while to learn and it has a parameter to describe the privacy of the app. They have an object application that contains all the information they need. Object parameter auth_referral_default_activity_privacy

.

You may not get the exact information, but you can have an idea if the post was either deleted or not intended to be shared with the public

How?

You can receive a call to Graph with a specific post id. If it returns an error, either the post has been removed or has not been posted publicly.

However, you cannot get accurate information about user preferences (Public - Friends-Only Me)

Hope it helps :)
