Platform Update: Developers Can Pull List of Granted Permissions, Reference Doc Improvements

The Platform Update published today on the Facebook Developers Blog announced that developers can now pull the list of permissions a user has granted their application using the Graph API. It also outlined a new commitment on Facebook’s part to improve its Graph API, FQL, FBML, and SDK reference documentation.

By calling “https://graph.facebook.com/me/permissions?access_token=…” in conjunction with a user object, developers can see the complete list of permissions a user has currently granted one of their apps. This can be useful for determining what kind of new functionality could be added without asking for new permissions.
