- Open the "My Apps" dropdown and select "Add a New App"
- Give the App a name and sleect "Create App ID"
- Select "Facebook Login" from the "Select a Product" page, and then select "Web"
- You might have to select "Add Product" on the sidebar to get here
- Enter a Site URL of "http://localhost:3000" and save this

- Enter "http://localhost:3000/api/authentication/facebook/redirect" in the "Valid OAuth redirect URIs" box and save this
- Select "Dashboard" in the sidebar, and write down the App ID and App Secret.
When you run the application, you will first need to set the environment variables FACEBOOK_CLIENTID and FACEBOOK_CLIENTSECRET to the App ID and App Secret you have just obtained.
