I use the Facebook API and an app to automatically post to a Facebook page up to three times a day. These public posts contain recent changes from my CMS, and the “app backend” is written in PHP.

Currently, Facebook asks all app developers to submit their apps for a review. This looks pretty difficult to me, as the data to be submitted should contain a screencast. But there is nothing I could show in such a screencast, as there is only sourcecode creating new posts…

Facebook pages API: "Page Public Content Access" review screencast was an interesting starting point: just don’t use a public app, but keep it in development mode. I changed the mode from live to dev, and all posts that were created in the last months vanished from my page. I could see them, logged in with my own account, but neither logged out nor using another account 🙁 Is there anything I forgot to change?

  1. Just do a screencast of how the server is posting after some event or timeout.

    Can you trigger some event on your server and show that new post was created after that? This should be enough for review.

  2. After several months of trying, finally manage to pass this review for manage_pages and publish_pages permissions. Important keyword is “server to server application”.

    Here is what I wrote for both permissions:
