Social — entry 008 of 38
Meta's Graph API is the single HTTP interface behind Facebook Login, Page management, and Social Plugins, exposing versioned endpoints under graph.facebook.com that read and write data about people, Pages, and Groups once a user grants OAuth permissions. Most scopes that touch another person's data or a business Page require Meta's app review process before they work outside development mode, and the same Graph API infrastructure also underlies Instagram's Business API stack.
