Unable to specify custom fields

[araratpoghosyan]

in League\OAuth2\Client\Provider\Facebook.php line 103 we have this code:

$fields = [
'id', 'name', 'first_name', 'last_name',
'email', 'hometown', 'picture.type(large){url,is_silhouette}',
'cover{source}', 'gender', 'locale', 'link', 'timezone', 'age_range'
];

I am unable to add other fields, like birthday.

Thank you.

Hey @araratpoghosyan! The fields you listed provide some default values that don't require extra permission to access. The oauth2-facebook package is designed to help you easily obtain an access token and then leaves it up to you to make authenticated requests however you like.

If you've requested access to a field that requires extra permissions, you can just send an authenticated request with the fields you would like to receive.

Assuming you've requested the user_birthday permission.

use League\OAuth2\Client\Provider\Facebook;
use League\OAuth2\Client\Provider\AppSecretProof;

$baseUrl = Facebook::BASE_GRAPH_URL.'v2.8';
$appSecretProof = AppSecretProof::create($config['app_secret'], $token->getToken());
$params = http_build_query([
	'fields' => 'id,name,birthday',
	'access_token' => $token->getToken(),
	'appsecret_proof' => $appSecretProof,
]);
$response = file_get_contents($baseUrl.'/me?'.$params);

// Raw JSON response from the Graph API
var_dump($response);
// Response as a plain-old PHP array
$data = json_decode($response, true);
var_dump($data);
