(HTTP 400). Failed to get an access token.
Hi all,
I am still having a problem with access to my token: Waiting for authentication in browser... Press Esc/Ctrl + C to abort Authentication complete. Error in init_oauth2.0(self$endpoint, self$app, scope = self$params$scope, : Bad Request (HTTP 400). Failed to get an access token.
I've already tried to fix this issue as you suggest by installing httr version = "1.1.0" but I got another error: Rfacebook requires httr version 1.2.0 or greater
I used this code: library(devtools)
install_github("Rfacebook", "pablobarbera", subdir = "Rfacebook") library(Rfacebook)
fb_oauth <- fbOAuth(app_id = "xxx", app_secret = "xxx", extended_permissions = TRUE)
and here my sessioninfo() R version 3.3.1 (2016-06-21) Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) Running under: Windows 7 x64 (build 7601) Service Pack 1

Hi! Rfacebook made it past its dev status. Have you tried it with library(Rfacebook)?
Best,

@a0903624 I honestly have no idea why this is happening. I have the same versions of the packages installed and I cannot replicate the error. Perhaps a problem with your browser or internet connection? Sorry I cannot help more! I'll leave this issue open in case someone else can help you.
I've been through some similar problem and i think the cause is actually the browser. After some debugging i found the function browseURL from httr crashing, then i changed the call to "browser=NULL" and it worked just fine. Defining a browser works too.
My OS is Windows also, maybe in a Unix based the problem doesn't occur.
I could solve it on mine! Try calling options("browser" = NULL) before fbOauth().
Should I make a pull request?
@nikolasj5 Sorry I'm only replying to this now. I'm trying to run the function with browser=NULL, but then it doesn't work for me (on Mac). It says Error in utils::browseURL(hu$url) : 'browser' must be a non-empty character string . Were you able to make it work? Do you specify the browser manually somewhere else?
Yes, it worked fine on Windows.
I would have to search the references but as far as i can remember the way it was before didn't work only on Windows, because it returns the default browser just if the parameter is null. Em 24/05/2017 21:51, "Pablo Barberá" [email protected] escreveu:

Same issue here: Bad Request (HTTP 400). Failed to get an access token. and same error on Mac: Error in utils::browseURL(hu$url) : 'browser' must be a non-empty character string Did you solve this by any means?
I've "solved" it by adding options("browser" = NULL) in the beginning of fbOAuth in Rfacebook/R/fbOAuth.R file.
Hi, me too! And even without the options("browser"=NULL) version. When looking at your app https://developers.facebook.com/apps you see «Products» on your left side. Click there and add http://localhost:1410/ under Valid OAuth redirect URIs too. Worked for me.
Nothing seems to work for me..
Waiting for authentication in browser...
Press Esc/Ctrl + C to abort
Authentication complete.
Error in init_oauth2.0(self$endpoint, self$app, scope = self$params$scope, :
Bad Request (HTTP 400).
Same problem for me too..
Copy and paste into Site URL on Facebook App Settings: http://localhost:1410/ When done, press any key to continue... Waiting for authentication in browser... Press Esc/Ctrl + C to abort Authentication complete. Error in oauth2.0_access_token(endpoint, app, code = code, user_params = user_params, : Bad Request (HTTP 400). Failed to get an access token.
rajibstats you should also do what ThomasWilli has said: "When looking at your app https://developers.facebook.com/apps you see «Products» on your left side. Click there and add http://localhost:1410/ under Valid OAuth redirect URIs too. Worked for me. " Just don't set the "Enforce HTTPS" to yes. It has worked for me.
Ok, my problem is slightly weirder - this has worked nicely for me for a while now - never any problems - until today. I'm trying to run the same piece of code, but on a remote machine (so that I can set it up on a scheduler) - all of a sudden, I get the same error as above.
Any ideas? Could this be because it's on a remote machine and if so what specifically might be making it fail?
Hi, I have the same problem and I do everything you recommend me in this post and when I configure eveything this appear: Invalid Scopes: user_relationships, publish_actions. This message is only shown to developers. Users of your app will ignore these permissions if present. Please read the documentation for valid permissions at: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions
Please help me!
Same here for me it is not working. With the same error! Also, I cant set http at the "Valid OAuth Redirect URIs" field at Facebook's developer site.
