Each method call to the API may return an error instead of the expected result due to possible bugs in either the application's code or Facebook's servers. On this page, you can find all of the potential errors that could be returned, as well as the functions which can return them.

In the PHP client, these are thrown as exceptions. If you want to degrade gracefully, you will need to catch them appropriately.

Contents

Overview

If you pass in a malformed or invalid API request, an error result gets returned. This is detectable by checking if the root element is of type error_response. Within this element, an error code and explanatory message are returned, as well as all of the parameter names and values of the original request.

In the example below, we see the error returned when an otherwise-valid request is made from an unauthorized IP address
