Facebook Graph API

Facebook Graph API

 

  • The Graph API is an interface utilising various calls through http://graph.facebook.com.
  • The calls that we will use are either publicly accessible or need some form of authorisation via an access token.
  • The access token is your key to city, but each city has different keys.
  • So get it right and be sure you know where you at.
  • Start by using a user access token . This can be used to make requests to the - Facebook API on behalf of the user. Most of the time, this is all you need

Internal API(mobile API's)

  • Certificate Pinning normally protects traffic that originates from Facebook mobile apps against sniffing operations.
  • But according to Facebook, when security researchers turn on the "Whitehat Settings" option, Facebook will intentionally break its Certificate Pinning mechanism for that account,
  • so the researcher can intercept, sniff, and analyze the traffic that originates from within.The calls that we will use are either publicly accessible or need some form of authorisation via an access token. (link)
