  • I'm using Laravel Socialite to handle Facebook authentication in my Laravel application, and I’m working in a test environment only. I have successfully integrated Socialite to allow users to log in with their Facebook accounts. Now, I need to fetch a list of the user's Facebook friends after they authenticate.

  • I've reviewed the Laravel Socialite documentation and the Facebook Graph API documentation, but I’m unsure how to proceed with obtaining the list of friends.

  • Facebook Permissions: I’ve made sure to request the user_friends permission during the login process.

  • API Calls: I’ve attempted to use the Graph API directly to fetch friends but haven't been able to integrate it smoothly with Socialite.

Here’s a snippet of the code I’m using to authenticate users:

public function redirectToProviderFacebook(){        return Socialite::driver('facebook')->scopes(['user_friends'])->redirect();     } public function handleProviderCallbackFacebook(Request $request){         try {             $user = Socialite::driver('facebook')->stateless()->user();             $accessToken = $user->token;             // Get friends             $response = Http::withToken($accessToken)                 ->get('https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends');             $friends = $response->json();             dd($friends);             $data = User::where`your text`('email', $user->email)->first();             if (is_null($data)) {                 $users['name'] = $user->name;                 $users['email'] = $user->email;                 $users['password'] = Hash::make('password');                 $data = User::create($users);             }             Auth::login($data);             return redirect('dashboard');         } catch (\Exception $e) {             // Log the error or return a meaningful message             Log::error('Facebook OAuth error: ' . $e->getMessage());             return redirect()->route('login')->with('error', 'Authentication failed.');         }     }

  • How do I use Laravel Socialite to fetch a user’s list of friends from Facebook in a test environment?

  • Are there any specific settings or configurations needed in the Facebook Developer Console for accessing friends data in a test environment?

  • Can you provide an example of how to make a request to the Facebook Graph API to get friends data after authentication?

Any guidance or examples would be greatly appreciated!
