Our public facing website has an integration with facebook to allow users to login. It is currently throwing an exception when it tries to – “Error Accessing App. We’re sorry, but the application you’re trying to use doesn’t exist or has been disabled.” while trying to login to facebook.
I do not have the facebook email and password which was used to setup the app (as the previous developer who set it no longer works with us) so that I can login to “developers.facebook.com” to check if the application is disabled or inactive for some reason (possibly compliance), so I can activate or fix the issue myself. All I have is the Client Id and Client Secret which is used to integrate with the graph API programatically.
Is there a way to get hold of the email/password for the business facebook account using just the Client Id and Secret or should I just create a new account?
I also tried accessing the facebook app info using Graph API via the OAuth token (derived from the Client Id and Secret), but it wasn’t very useful. All I know is the app Category (business), App Id and Name. I was hoping to find an API to maybe tell me the status of the app and possibly to activate it.
