Application update for breaking changes (without comment streams)

Question

Here is the notification I just received:

The App currently uses the following deprecated features: Potential-free comments. See the Developer Roadmap for more information on this change.

I looked at the API and the developer’s roadmap and settings, but did not find a way to fix this problem. How to fix it?

Answer 1

My hunch is that they send alerts based on the permissions that your application uses - my application does not interact with any "comments" in the graph, but it has publish_stream and manage_pages permissions.

If someone knows otherwise, please let me know ...

Answer 2

I received the same notification for one of my applications. My application definitely does not read or create comments on Facebook posts or objects (Facebook posted comments with comments in April). Thus, a Facebook message does not apply to every application to which they send it.

This change should only affect applications that read or post comments.

Here is a link to the API documentation for comments:
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/Comment/

Answer 3

See the settings page in the Migrations section. Turn on “July 2013 Changes,” and your notice should have a green sign saying: your application, the name of the application, is now compatible with the July 2013 Breaking Changes migration. No further action is required.

Be sure to read the full roadmap https://developers.facebook.com/roadmap/ .

Answer 4

I also have the following message:

MyApp currently uses the following deprecated features:

• The "page_id" field in the FQL validation table. Use "target_id" instead.
• The 'version' field in the group's FQL table and in the Graph API.
• Potentialless comments. See the Developer Roadmap for more information on this change.

I am sure that in my case the warning is being output from my Graph API and my Django test code. This means that Facebook logs every request sent by your application and sends you a warning, even if you used outdated functions only once. check this
