Permission migration from publish_stream to publish_action

Question

I am wondering if you have a users permission to publish_stream and you want to publish_action from now on does publish_stream cover both or do we need to re-request the use

Answer 1

I have successfully published actions to the timeline with only the publish_stream permission. I cannot say if this is will be the case when it is fully launched or if it's only working because of the developer's beta. We can know for sure once we're 48 hours away from the official launch by checking out the beta tier. http://developers.facebook.com/support/beta-tier/
