Facebook: POST userid/apprequest throws an excepti

Question

I am using trying to send app request to friends, My code always throws exception but I see that my friends get the App request. I am confused. Can someone let me know hot to handle the request dialog using rest-fb api?

My Code

     String apprequestCall = "6111349/apprequests"; 
     FacebookClient facebookClient = new DefaultFacebookClient(MY_ACCESS_TOKEN); 
                        try { 
                                String appRequest = facebookClient.publish(apprequestCall, 
                                                                                                        String.class, 
                                                                                                        Parameter.with("message", "Santhosh"), 
                                                                                                        Parameter.with("data", "Kokala")); 
                        } catch (FacebookJsonMappingException e) { 
                                e.printStackTrace(); 
                        } catch (FacebookException e) { 
                                e.printStackTrace(); 
                        } 
        }

Answer 1

It is giving 403 error, which means Facebook is unable to retrieve/execute the url you specified. But as @kitokid also said, provide accesstoken as well, but donot put your app secret id in any javascript, as that can be seen from client side. You can get a fresh accesstoken by calling FB.getloginstatus or similar function.

The invitation is sent may be because the action went through.
