The Grid Error - Facebook API

Hi,

I’m getting errors trying to display my public Facebook page.

“Sorry, an error occurs from Facebook API: (#15) This method cannot be called with a client token or an app secret embedded in the client code”.

I have searched this forum and online but can’t find a solution. I do believe I correctly entered the Facebook App ID and Facebook App Secret (as I did copy and paste it in) in the Global Settings of the plugin.

Any solutions?

Thanks!

Hi @ruenel,

Hi @GeniusMBM

It might be the issue of your Facebook App settings. Please check these settings in your Facebook App.

  • Change your app secret ASAP, you shouldn’t include private info in these questions

  • Then, check the advanced settings of your app and make app type is set to ‘Web’, not to ‘native/desktop’ - if it’s set to native/desktop the app secret isn’t trusted and calls which need an app access token will fail.

Please have a look at this thread

For more information, please take a look at this:

Hope it helps :slight_smile:
Thanks
