Transition Period Over, New Facebook Permissions Data Model Takes Effect
Facebook is moving to a simpler data authorization model for third-party access to user data as we’ve been covering since the company announced the change at its f8 developer conference in April. The new model is coming today, as planned.
Developers get access to basic information, including names and friend lists, with the change, but are required to ask for all specific pieces of extended data — and it’s all within a single interface. This replaces the platform’s previous multi-step process that could allow developers to obtain more data access, possibly with less clarity around what data users were sharing.
