Social framework returns "(#803) Cannot query users by their username (username)" when trying to get user feed
facebook, facebook-graph-api, objective-c, social-framework
Solution
Already pointed out in the comments, but you are not supposed to use the username anymore and you can´t access data of users who did not authorize your App.

Problem
I'm using iOs social framework in order to retrieve facebook feeds from a certain user. For that purpose, after authenticating I'm doing the following: ``` NSURL *requestURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://graph.facebook.com/username"]; SLRequest *request = [SLRequest requestForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook requestMethod:SLRequestMethodGET URL:requestURL parameters:nil]; request.account = self.facebookAccount; [request performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *data, NSHTTPURLResponse *response, NSError *error) { ... }]; ``` The response returns: ``` error = { code = 803; message = "(#803) Cannot query users by their username (username)"; type = OAuthException; }; ``` The same works if I use `/me` instead of the username, but I want to retrieve someone else public feed. I also tried using the user's id which also works for my user, but I it doesnt work for other users, the request returns the following: ``` code = 2500; message = "The global ID 100008339709776 is not allowed. Please use the application specific ID instead."; type = OAuthException; ``` I also tried passing the access token as parameter but the behavior is the same. Any ideas?
