Facebook Email field return null (even if the “email” permission is set and accepted)

Question

For some users in our application, the email field returns NULL even if the user has granted the email access to the app. When we check the scope parameter and the validity

Answer 1

All you need to know:

1) Link 1

Some possible reasons:

No Email address on account

No confirmed email address on account

No verified email address on account

User entered a security checkpoint which required them to reconfirm their email address and they have not yet done so

• Users's email address is unreachable

• You also need the 'email' extended permission, even for users who have a valid, confirmed, reachable email address on file.

2) Link 2

Note, even if you request the email permission it is not guaranteed you will get an email address. For example, if someone signed up for Facebook with a phone number instead of an email address, the email field may be empty.
