How to get data user API Facebook?

Question

I use this API to take some notes from facebook page: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.8/user/feed

It returns me object:

"data": [
    {
      "story": "pdated their profile picture.",
      "created_time": "2017-01-13T23:02:10+0000",
      "id": "439421442879448_707028796118710"
    },

How can I get photo and name of author?

You have to ask for the field:

/me/feed?fields=from

Result:

{
  "data": [
    {
      "from": {
        "name": "xxx",
        "id": "xxx"
      },
      "id": "xxx"
    },
    ...

...or to get pictures too:

/me/feed?fields=from{id,name,picture}

For Pages, just replace "me" with the Page ID.

I dont use `/me` I use name of another page – Hamama Jan 19 '17 at 13:55
then use the id, it does not really matter. – andyrandy Jan 19 '17 at 13:58
Seems it was deprecated – Hamama Jan 19 '17 at 14:07
I tried to get picture from response as: `value.from.picture.data.url` – Hamama Jan 19 '17 at 14:11
debug the response directly, what does it include? (console.log(value)) – andyrandy Jan 19 '17 at 14:13
i just tested it with a page, the api call works perfectly fine – andyrandy Jan 19 '17 at 14:14
