are you actually using 'access_token = ACCESS_TOKEN' in the graph api call ? – FSP Jun 06 '12 at 04:55

- Check if you have permissions to post from the app.
- Add app_id to your call.

i do not think that i need to provide app id for this request.as far as i know app id is only used for getting code and access tokens – arpitsolanki Jun 06 '12 at 05:09

If you’re just calling the URL you mentioned, that would be a GET request. To post a message to the user’s wall you have to use method POST. You can test it in the Graph API Explorer – change the method to POST via the dropdown, click „add a field” and use name=message and value=your_message …
