    Use {PAGE_NAME} instead of {APP_ID}

    GET ACCESS TOKEN: https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token?client_id={APP_ID}&client_secret={APP_SECRET_KEY}&grant_type=client_credentials

GET FANS COUNT: https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/{PAGE_NAME}?access_token={ACCESS_TOKEN}&fields=fan_count

    Thanks for luschn

    This is the correct one:

    https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/{PAGE_ID}?access_token={ACCESS_TOKEN}&fields=fan_count

    Not sure why you would use an App for this, Fans are for Pages.
