Hi, yesterday i created a new facebook application but now if apps asks user profile information facebook login is blocked until the approval of the application by facebook.
is it possibile? until now i created more than 30 applications without ask facebook approval and never had this login problem.
is it related to recent login changes about "user can define shared information"?

In facebook developers i see this:
Review
If your app asks for more than than public_profile, email and user_friends it will require review by Facebook before your app can be used by people other than the app's developers.
The time to review your app is usually about 7 business days. Some extra-sensitive permissions, as noted below, can take up to 14 business days.

This is a new policy change from Facebook for all apps created after May 1st, 2014. Apps from before that do not have this requirement until May 1st, 2015. We're still digesting the changes and working on a blog post with updated information right now. JFBConnect v6.0.6 supports the changes in the Graph API v2, while still maintaining backward compatibility with the v1 apps that existed before May 1st, 2014.

For more information on the Graph API v2 changes, see:
developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2014/0...-new-facebook-login/

To sum up though, yes, you'll need to submit your app to Facebook for approval with a brief explanation of why you are requesting the additional permissions. From what we've seen, you shouldn't have a problem getting approval if you're integrating with the profile extensions we support as you're simply pre-filling user information.

I hope that helps explain.

Thanks,
Alex

I believe sales through a Facebook Canvas application are allowed. However, I won't in any way state that I know their policies inside and out and specifically what is or isn't allowed within a Canvas app.

Obviously, you can always reduce your requirements for additional user information, which will decrease the scrutiny your application will be put under in review.

If there are concerns though, I'd recommend contacting a lawyer or other professional who can give you advice after reading their full terms. We cannot provide such advice though.

I hope that helps,
Alex

Hi, tx for your reply. About new facebook login reading this developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/review/login i understand that for not submitted application:
1. is possibile import just public_profile, user_friends and email information
2. to posting permission is possibile add users in roles (which role? testers or insights?)

i'm using cmmunity builder profile plugin so please could you tell me which fields (about public_profile) i need to create and map with jfbconnect fields? tx

sorry for the update but maybe this can help me to explain better my needs.
in developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/v2.0 i read
A person's public profile refers to the following properties on the user object by default:

id
name
first_name
last_name
link
gender
locale
age_range

but in jfbconnect plugin for community builder, i don't have locale and age_range
ok for other fields, they are present

Glad you found the information you were looking for. As for age-range, that's not a field we currently support. It may be added in the future but, for now, if you need the user's age, we'd recommend using the birthday field and getting their actual age. That would require the extra permission and approval by Facebook, but that's the only way, right now, to get that data.

I hope that helps, and glad you're making progress.

Thanks,
Alex
