This call requires a Page access token

I am trying to login with facebook, which is done. I need to get user info like name, email, hometown, location, gender, profile_pic. But i can only get username of the logged in user. I also added fields parameter to api. You can see that in below code.

<div id="container"></div>
<script>
 var accessToken;
 window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
   FB.init({
    appId      : 'App Id',
    cookie     : true,
    xfbml      : true,
    version    : 'v3.1'
   });

   FB.AppEvents.logPageView();   

   function getuserProfile() {
    FB.api('/me?fields=id,name,email,birthday,gender,hometown,location,profile_pic', {access_token : accessToken }, function (response){
      console.log(response);
    });
 }  

FB.login(function(response) {
  if (response.status === 'connected') {
    accessToken = response.authResponse.accessToken;
    getuserProfile();
  } else {
    console.log('not connected');
  }
}, {scope: 'email'});  
};

(function(d, s, id){
  var js, fjs = d.getElementsByTagName(s)[0];
  if (d.getElementById(id)) {return;}
  js = d.createElement(s); js.id = id;
  js.src = "https://connect.facebook.net/en_US/sdk.js";
  fjs.parentNode.insertBefore(js, fjs);
 }(document, 'script', 'facebook-jssdk'));

    Make sure you get asked for the email permission in the login popup. Also, you need to ask for additional permissions with the scope parameter, not just email. For example, user_birthday to get the birthday of users. Right now you are only asking for the email permission.

    Example:

    FB.login(function(response) {
  if (response.status === 'connected') {
    accessToken = response.authResponse.accessToken;
    getuserProfile();
  } else {
    console.log('not connected');
  }
}, {scope: 'email,user_birthday,...'});  
};

    Reference for permissions: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/

    Some fields can be specified wrong and that is why Facebook API is giving such an error even when everything else seems fine. For instance profile_pic field can cause such an error which should be something like picture.type(large). See also: FacebookGraphAPIError: (#210) This call requires a Page access token
