    <p>I'm trying to create test users for my Facebook application. They announced this functionality in this blog post in November (http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/429) and it is documented here (<a href="http://developers.facebook.com/docs/test_users/" rel="nofollow">http://developers.facebook.com/docs/test_users/</a>). I could not find the answer to this elsewhere...</p> <p>According to the documentation, "You can create a test user associated with a particular application using the Graph API with the application access token." This links to the section "Autenticating as an Application" and describes this CURL script:</p> <pre><code>curl -F grant_type=client_credentials \ -F client_id=your_app_id \ -F client_secret=your_app_secret \ https://graph.facebook.com/oauth/access_token </code></pre> <p>So far, so good. I ran this and get the following: </p> <pre><code>access_token=1182...18|nTI...r5Q </code></pre> <p>So now I want to POST this token to the graph api test user URL:</p> <pre><code>POST /1182...18/accounts/test-users?installed=true&amp;permissions=read_stream&amp;access_token=1182...18|nTI...r5Q </code></pre> <p>When I do this (both using the Facebook PHP SDK and just typing it into the browser) I get:</p> <pre><code>{ "error": { "type": "OAuthException", "message": "Invalid OAuth access token." } } </code></pre> <p>So the questions are: <li> Why am I getting this error message? <li> Am I using the wrong access token (despite Facebook explicitly telling me to use this one?) <li> Do I need to parse the access token somehow?</p> <p>Thank you for your help.</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.
