CONNECT APP

Build with Facebook Graph API

The Graph API is the primary way for third party applications to read and write to the Facebook social graph.

MCP

Give your agent Facebook Graph API tools

Every Facebook Graph API action is exposed as an MCP tool on Pipedream's remote server. Point a client at it with your end user's ID and Connect resolves that user's Facebook Graph API account for each tool call — you store no tokens.

// accessToken: mint a short-lived token with the Connect SDK — see the MCP guide
const transport = new StreamableHTTPClientTransport(
  new URL("https://remote.mcp.pipedream.net/v3"),
  {
    requestInit: {
      headers: {
        Authorization: `Bearer ${accessToken}`,
        "x-pd-project-id": "{project_id}",
        "x-pd-environment": "production",
        "x-pd-external-user-id": "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
        "x-pd-app-slug": "facebook_graph_api",
      },
    },
  },
)

const mcp = new Client({ name: "my-agent", version: "1.0.0" })
await mcp.connect(transport)

const { tools } = await mcp.listTools()
// Every tool arrives with its own input schema — run one with mcp.callTool().

API PROXY

Call the Facebook Graph API API directly

For an endpoint with no pre-built tool, the Connect proxy forwards your request to the Facebook Graph API API with the connected user's credentials attached. You store no tokens and write no refresh logic.

const resp = await pd.proxy.get({
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  accountId: "apn_xxxxxxx",
  url: "https://graph.facebook.com/v25.0/me/",
})

// Any allowed Facebook Graph API endpoint works here. Pipedream attaches the
// connected account's credentials to the outgoing request.

SDK

Run Facebook Graph API actions from your backend

Connect a user's Facebook Graph API account once, then discover and run its tools on their behalf from your own code — TypeScript, Python, or plain HTTP.

import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const tools = await pd.components.list({
  app: "facebook_graph_api",
  componentType: "action",
})

TOOLS

Facebook Graph API actions

On-demand operations your product or agent can configure and run on behalf of a connected user.

No Facebook Graph API actions are available yet.

EVENTS

Facebook Graph API triggers

Event sources your backend can deploy for users and receive through a webhook.

No Facebook Graph API triggers are available yet.

MULTI-APP

Use Facebook Graph API with other popular apps

Most products don't stop at one integration. Pair Facebook Graph API with the other apps your users rely on, and ship use cases that span both.
