|
|
|
Q: What is the Facebook App ID and App Secret, and why are they required?
|

|
|
Q: How do I find the Facebook UID of the page for which I wish to synchronize events?
|
|
|
|

|
|
Copy the URL and replace 'www' with 'graph' - ex. https://graph.facebook.com/webtrends

The UID is the first item in the resulting text. In this example it is "54905721286".
