Facebook API Changes And Access To Data

As users know, Facebook’s API has provided limited access to their data. In most cases, majority of posts aren’t returned to trackers. This issue has affected all social analytics tools that use V1.0 of the API.

However, on April 30, 2015, Facebook is going to remove access to this functionality altogether, as they move everyone from V1.0 to V2.0 of their API. Facebook has not provided a direct replacement for this functionality.

Unfortunately, this means that starting April 30, 2015, no search data from Facebook will be available in trackers. Keyhole will continue to provide full data from Twitter and Instagram. 

We’re sorry for any inconvenience this may cause, and please email us if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Saif
