I tried setting up the app (production, because we have no test server) with a test user and used him to share the content. The content was shared on the users' wall, but when I do an fql query
on the link_stat
table. I noticed that my URL has a zero share_count
:
https://graph.facebook.com/fql?q=SELECT%20url,%20normalized_url,%20share_count,%20like_count,%20comment_count,%20total_count,commentsbox_count,%20comments_fbid,%20click_count%20FROM%20link_stat%20WHERE%20url=%27http://bit.ly/someurl/%27
and
https://graph.facebook.com/fql?q=SELECT%20url,%20normalized_url,%20share_count,%20like_count,%20comment_count,%20total_count,commentsbox_count,%20comments_fbid,%20click_count%20FROM%20link_stat%20WHERE%20url=%27http://<some-site>/somepage.html%27
Is this because I don't have my app approved yet? Or is it because I'm using bit.ly links back to my page to track individual Social Media campaigns in Universal Analytics?
I don't know if my app is in development mode or not, I would think so because in the documentation it states:
When testing your apps, place them into Development Mode. This hides your app entirely from all users who you have not authorized in the App Dashboard to see the app, for the roles described below. Please note that when your app is in Development Mode, you cannot call any API calls on behalf of users who cannot see your app.
