Facebook Graph API - get ID for a URL?

Question

This seems like a pretty obvious, basic thing to expect from the Graph API, but I\'m having serious difficulty with it. All I want to do is get the ID for any particular URL

Answer 1

Try FQL for this;

http://graph.facebook.com/fql?q=select%20url%2C%20id%2C%20type%2C%20site%20from%20object_url%20where%20url%20%3D%20%22http%3A%2F%2Fkriek.hu%2F%22

returns:

{
   "data": [
      {
         "url": "http://kriek.hu/",
         "id": 497425470154,
         "type": "link",
         "site": "kriek.hu"
      }
   ]
}

For more information, see object_url.

I hope it helps!
