Facebook Ad API PHP : Invalid OAuth access token

I am working on the Facebook Ads API and I am totally new for this. I am getting an error to fetch the Ads account. The error is Invalid OAuth access token. After getting this error I came to google and searched a lot like
First Link Another one another one. But didn’t find any solution so I decided to come to Stackoverflow so this question is not duplicate

Here is the code how I used the Facebook Ads API

public function login() {

        $helper = $this->facebook->getRedirectLoginHelper();
        $this->request->session()->write('fb_access_token', false);
        $access_token =  $this->request->session()->read('fb_access_token');

        if ($access_token) {
            echo "You are logged in!";
          } else {
            $permissions = ['email', 'ads_management', 'pages_show_list', 'publish_pages', 'manage_pages', 'ads_read'];
            $loginUrl = $helper->getLoginUrl('http://localhost/FacebookManager/Adsmanagement/authenticate', $permissions);
            echo '<a href="' . $loginUrl . '">Log in with Facebook</a>';
          }
    }

    public function authenticate() {
        if (isset($_GET['state'])) {
            $helper = $this->facebook->getRedirectLoginHelper();
            $helper->getPersistentDataHandler()->set('state', $_GET['state']);
            $accessToken = $helper->getAccessToken();
            if($accessToken) {
                echo "got the token";
                $this->request->session()->write('fb_access_token', $accessToken);
                //echo $accessToken; 
                $oAuth2Client = $this->facebook->getOAuth2Client();
                $longLivedAccessToken = $oAuth2Client->getLongLivedAccessToken($accessToken);

                $this->facebook->setDefaultAccessToken($longLivedAccessToken);


            }
        }
    }

And I am getting the adaccount like this

public function getAdsAccount() {
        $accesstoken = $this->request->session()->read('fb_access_token');
        //$accesstoken = "AQwfmuNgKZCZCiZBuhAMGB8xZBty5dgNR7J9ZBO2ZCDl1SWYxnBLn9ahIn5FQTWxkJ0FPKbemeG0vUAwPsZCN2FFxOFey9BQr8CZBW07IwlZB0FK81SH8ozOil2GllR35BCyxQGhQ7JrtuCdNE6kjEOU0FZCAZDZD";
        Api::init(
            $this->app_id, // App ID
            $this->appsecret,
            $accesstoken // Your user access token
          );
        //*****************
        $account = new AdAccount('****************');
        $contracts = $account->read();

        echo "<pre>"; print_r($contracts->getData());
    }

So I am using a developer account, Trying to fetch this with the facebook test user from the APP dashboard-> Roles->Test User. I am setting the proper permissions etc. Don’t know where I am wrong.

Update
Now the issue is if I create access token from Graph Explorar It works but if i create with SDK its giving me the error “invalid aouth Tokan”

Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    It was actually my mistake. Facebook API return us an protect object. If you print the variable it will display it as string.

    <?php
echo $longLivedAccessToken;
var_dump($longLivedAccessToken);
?>

    The output is something like enter image description here

    I tried $longLivedAccessToken->getValue();

    $oAuth2Client = $this->facebook->getOAuth2Client();
$longLivedAccessToken = $oAuth2Client->getLongLivedAccessToken($accessToken);
$accesstoken = $longLivedAccessToken->getValue();
$this->request->session()->write('fb_access_token', $accesstoken);
$this->facebook->setDefaultAccessToken($longLivedAccessToken);

    Hello @manoj Kumar Please check with below URL with administrator login for app debug your AccessToken.

    https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/

    Please check below code from facebook PHP SDK for getting the valid access token with permission ads_management.

    require_once __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use FacebookFacebook;
use FacebookExceptionsFacebookResponseException;
use FacebookExceptionsFacebookSDKException;

// Init PHP Sessions
session_start();

$fb = new Facebook([
  'app_id' => '{your-app-id}',
  'app_secret' => '{your-app-secret}',
]);

$helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();

if (!isset($_SESSION['facebook_access_token'])) {
  $_SESSION['facebook_access_token'] = null;
}

if (!$_SESSION['facebook_access_token']) {
  $helper = $fb->getRedirectLoginHelper();
  try {
    $_SESSION['facebook_access_token'] = (string) $helper->getAccessToken();
  } catch(FacebookResponseException $e) {
    // When Graph returns an error
    echo 'Graph returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
    exit;
  } catch(FacebookSDKException $e) {
    // When validation fails or other local issues
    echo 'Facebook SDK returned an error: ' . $e->getMessage();
    exit;
  }
}

if ($_SESSION['facebook_access_token']) {
  echo "You are logged in!";
} else {
  $permissions = ['ads_management'];
  $loginUrl = $helper->getLoginUrl('http://localhost:8888/marketing-api/', $permissions);
  echo '<a href="' . $loginUrl . '">Log in with Facebook</a>';
}

    After that, You have to get AdAccount so use below code

    use FacebookAdsObjectAdUser;

// Add after Api::init()
$me = new AdUser('me');
$my_adaccount = $me->getAdAccounts()->current();
