I was trying to get user_checkins from facebook using graph api using the following code
https://graph.facebook.com/".$userId."/checkins?access_token=$accessToken
but I am getting a null array. I have added some checkins to my timeline but that's not showing up in the array. I have given the permissions for the access token.
Can someone help me out, thanks in advance.
Option 1 : In Facebook app version 2.4 user checkins are deprecated, but we can get them in either following way!
Based on point 2 and 3 above you can put condition and acquire "user_checkins"
NOTE : I checked out from Mobile and Also from desktop and in both case the "status_type" is "mobile_status_update"
Option 2 : You can fire Graph api query like below
me?fields=posts{story,place}
Based on place field you can put condition to acquire "user_checkins"
let me know if you this is helpful.
