Problem with the Facebook and Twitter Client Tutorial

[adityagupta679]

The tutorials in https://github.com/OpenTechSchool/python/wiki/Facebook-Client and https://github.com/OpenTechSchool/python/wiki/Twitter-Client won't work because the API's dont work well .
Twitter's API is deprecated and Facebook's API requires tokens.

Output of Facebook API :

{
   "error": {
      "message": "An access token is required to request this resource.",
      "type": "OAuthException",
      "code": 104,
      "fbtrace_id": "AWJ1Ar4nisa"
   }
}

@charljulien We need to look into how the Facebook API has changed since this tutorial was written. API's in general now require a key to prevent unauthorized bots from continuously querying the resources and crowding up the system . You have got to register as a developer at facebook or twitter and create an app, I guess and get an access token , that you can then include as a parameter in the search query. I will have to go through it properly before I can suggest a workable fix , but the essence of the problem is the access token , if i am not mistaken. This link can help you get a better understanding of the facebook graph API and what the access token is.
