Get birthdays of Friends who are using my App

Question

I want to extract birthdays of friends who are using my app; I'm unable to access it.

FBRequest *friendRequest = [FBRequest requestForGraphPath:@"me/friends?fields=name,birthday"];
[friendRequest startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error)
{
    NSArray *data = [result objectForKey:@"data"];
    for (FBGraphObject<FBGraphUser> *friend in data)
    {
        NSLog(@"%@:%@:%@", [friend id], [friend name], [friend birthday]);
    }
}

Permissions on didLoad:

self.loginButton.readPermissions = @[@"public_profile", @"email", @"user_friends", @"friends_birthday"];
