I can get the Senders first and last name, etc using https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/fbid?access_token=PAGEACCESS_TOKEN
. How do I secure access to other information available described in the graph api that is more than what is defined on the messenger docs

You don’t. Facebook has made the user ids in messenger page-scoped for a reason; you are not supposed to get more information about them making random API calls. Plus, accessing someone’s e-mail requires their permission first of all. – CBroe Nov 03 '16 at 15:02

Can I request permission from within Messenger itself? – Vishal Nov 03 '16 at 15:03

1No. At most you can perhaps use account linking, to have them create an “account” in your app, and then link that to the messenger user. – CBroe Nov 03 '16 at 15:05
