Facebook API Question posted in
The official documentation for the Facebook APIs can be found here.

"(# 100) You must provide an application access token or user access token who owns or is the developer of the application" (see Description)?

I make a request to find out the data about my user access token:

fetch("https://graph.facebook.com/v8.0/debug_token?input_token=" + access_token).then(function (response) {
   response.text().then(function (textII) {
       alert(textII);
   });
});

In this case, I take the accessToken value from auth Response after authorization to the application and Facebook:

{
    status: 'connected',
    authResponse: {
        accessToken: '{access-token}',
        expiresIn:'{unix-timestamp}',
        reauthorize_required_in:'{seconds-until-token-expires}',
        signedRequest:'{signed-parameter}',
        userID:'{user-id}'
    }
}

But I get an error:

{
   "error": {
      "message": "(#100) You must provide an app access token or a user access token that is an owner or developer of the app",
      "type": "OAuthException",
      "code": 100,
      "fbtrace_id": "AtpM_XaTOgH7YH-OXHdQCXj"
   }
}

The value of my variable access_token is not null (I checked), while this is sort of a user access token (the keyword "sort of"). So what’s wrong? Explain, please. If you need information about what I need it for, then I need it for this request:

for (var iio = 0; iio < posts_ids.length; iio++) {
fetch("https://graph.instagram.com/" + posts_ids[iio] + "?fields=id,media_type,media_url,owner,timestamp&access_token=" + access_token).then(function (response) {
      response.text().then(function (textII) {
          alert(textII);
      });
  });
}

Which throws an error:

{
   "error": {
      "message": "Invalid OAuth access token.",
      "type": "OAuthException",
      "code": 190,
      "fbtrace_id": "AD7BAPqUGdQGC6dyV9K_FFr"
   }
}

At the same time, in my previous requests, just starting with "https://graph.facebook.com/", and not "https://graph.instagram.com/", everything worked with the accessToken that I received after registration.
Help me please. I’m new to the Instagram API, so I can be pretty dumb.

    @Denis Bredun , you would have to pass access_token field also as the URL param, so just update the url to –

    https://graph.facebook.com/v8.0/debug_token?input_token=<access_token>&access_token=<access_token>

    Try resetting your app secret. I was getting the same problem, and this fixed it.

    • I solved the error by changing the app secret to the correct one.

    Make sure you are using the proper app secret.

    For me, using the debug_token api requires the "page token" and the "app token" and then you call the api in the format :
    https://graph.facebook.com/v<version>/debug_token?input_token=<page_token>&access_token=<app_token>

    As per the facebook doc To get the app_token, you need the app id and app secret. And then you call https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id={your-app-id}&client_secret={your-app-secret}&grant_type=client_credentials

    To get the page_token, this is done by first getting the user_token, then you convert the user_token into a long lived user token, and then you get the page token calling the api "/<page_id>?fields=access_token".
    Note that you will need the proper permissions on the user_token to do that, like "pages_read_engagement" otherwize you will get an error from the api trying to get the page token.
