How to post a post on Facebook API?

Question

I want to post on Facebook a result like this:

"User_name posted a post on App_name."

I have tried with "/feed" but result return is:

"User_name updated his status."

I don't know how to return result as expected above ?

Answer 1

I'm want posting result like this: "User_name posted a post on App_name."

That would be a custom Open Graph story, where the verb is "posting" and the object is "post." But since posting a post is a "native" Facebook action, I don't even see how they got that through review.

Anyway, custom OG stories are deprecated, so you can't use them in new apps any more, and they will be removed for existing ones soon.

If you have a valid use case for the common actions and objects types, then you can post a story using those.

Otherwise, just make a normal post, and accept that it looks like posts do.
