As from Facebook documentation I can get the count of shares for a web page calling the following url https://graph.facebook.com/?id=http://www.google.it, the returned data are the following:
{
"share": {
"comment_count": 0,
"share_count": 636734
},
"og_object": {
"id": "389545309239",
"title": "Google",
"type": "website",
"updated_time": "2017-06-08T10:05:50+0000"
},
"id": "http://www.google.it"
}
I want to get the same data using the PHP SDK using the following code:
//require the Facebook PHP SDK
$client_id="my app id";
$client_secret="my secret key";
$default_access_token = file_get_contents( "https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id=$client_id&client_secret=$client_secret&grant_type=client_credentials");
$OGResponse = new Facebook\Authentication\AccessToken($default_access_token);
$access_token = json_decode($OGResponse)->access_token;
$fb = new Facebook\Facebook([
'app_id' => $client_id, // Replace {app-id} with your app id
'app_secret' => $client_secret,
'default_access_token' => $access_token,
]);
$helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();
$request = new \Facebook\FacebookRequest(
$fb->getApp(),
$access_token,
'GET',
'/',
array(
'id' => 'http://www.google.it',
)
);
$response = $fb->getClient()->sendRequest($request);
//$response = $request->execute();
$graphObject = $response->getGraphObject();
Accessing the $graphObject I can retrieve the same data except the ones in "share" key, that are what I'm interested.
If I use the GRAPH API Explorer, I get the same info using the PHP SDK:
{
"og_object": {
"id": "389545309239",
"title": "Google",
"type": "website",
"updated_time": "2017-06-08T10:05:50+0000"
},
"id": "http://www.google.it"
}
Is there any way to get the "shares" using the PHP SDK?
