What permissions does the facebook login function need?

Sharetribe Go Community Edition
1

I got a email from facebook that i the facebook login app needs to be submitted to be reviewed.
Otherwise i will lose these permissions by the first of august:

  • user_friends
  • user_link
  • user_gender
  • user_age_range

I don’t remind Sharetribe using these permissions and i can’t find them in the code (by searching)?

Does Sharetribe use these? And will my Sharetribe installation be broken after these permissions are withdrawn?

Thanks!

Thank you for your message. Since we use Facebook only for log in / sign up, we don’t use many properties from Facebook. We mainly use: Facebook username, first name, last name, email, facebook user ID and profile picture. That’s about it. Here’s the code: https://github.com/sharetribe/sharetribe/blob/d594cead331c1e650fd8d23710bed14f179afdb2/app/controllers/people_controller.rb#L170

As you can see we don’t use any of the properties that would make your app need a review.

I hope this information helps.
