I am developing a web app with Facebook integration and I can't figure out why I can't test the login function locally. I have looked through the answers here (How to Test Facebook Connect Locally) and have tried to follow the steps of having the app in test mode, setting the site URL and the domain.

Based on FBs documentation here: https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2018/06/08/enforce-https-facebook-login/ I should be able to use http for localhost development, but I get the error

The method FB.api can no longer be called from http pages. https://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/2018/06/08/enforce-https-facebook-login/

and can't log in. Below are pictures of my app settings (including an indication it is an app in 'test mode'). Site URl

So this is really only a half answer, but it seemed easier for me to just force https for my local development using mkcert (https://github.com/FiloSottile/mkcert). After creating local certs I updated my site URL to say https://localhost:8080 and I am able to log in without issue.
