List the members of a Facebook group via API

Question

Is is possible to list the members of a Facebook group using the Facebook API? If yes, how?

Answer 1

First you need an access token. I'd recommend this article:

If you want a permanent access token you must ask for the "offline_access" extended permission on getting it.

After that, it's just a matter of issuing a REST API call:

https://graph.facebook.com/[GROUPID]/members?access_token=[ACCESSTOKEN]

and you'll receive a JSON list of all the members of that group. Very handy!
