    <p>I'm trying to remove permissions via an Ajax HTTP DELETE request, but the response I'm getting back is not what the graph api docs say i should be getting. It says I should be getting a boolean response ("True if the delete succeeded and error otherwise."). But instead I'm getting an entire object of the permissions list:</p> <pre><code>var revokePermission = function(permName) { var revoke_perm_url = "https://graph.facebook.com/me/permissions" + "?access_token=" + access_token + "&amp;callback=?"; $.ajax({ type: "DELETE", dataType: "jsonp", url: revoke_perm_url, data: {'permission': permName}, success: function(response){ console.log(response); } }); } revokePermission(permission_name); </code></pre> <p>Here is what I get back:</p> <pre><code>data: Array[1] 0: Object bookmarked: 1 create_note: 1 email: 1 installed: 1 photo_upload: 1 publish_actions: 1 publish_stream: 1 read_stream: 1 share_item: 1 status_update: 1 user_interests: 1 user_likes: 1 user_status: 1 video_upload: 1 </code></pre> <p>Note that the api docs say: </p> <blockquote> <p>You can de-authorize an application entirely, or just revoke a specific permission on behalf of a user by issuing an HTTP DELETE to PROFILE_ID/permissions or PROFILE_ID/permissions/PERMISSION_NAME respectively. This request must be made with a value user access_token for the current app.</p> </blockquote> <p>I understand all this, so when I either issue a request to the specific permission url (ie "/permissions/user_likes/") or to the base permissions url with the permission sent via the ajax data param, they both just return an object of all my current permissions, and the permission I requested to be deleted remains untouched.</p> <p>However when I set the permission in both the url and the data being sent, it returns an object with an error:</p> <pre><code>Object error: Object code: 2500 message: "Cannot specify permission in both the path and query parameter." type: "OAuthException" </code></pre> <p>Anyone know what is going on? Note that the LEGACY REST method of auth.revokeExtendedPermission does indeed work per (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/rest/auth.revokeExtendedPermission/). It returns a boolean response and the respective permission is deleted.</p> <p>Solutions?</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
