title: List group events using Facebook Graph API v3.0
body: <p>I'm trying to export the events for a "closed" Facebook group using the Facebook graph API. However, I end up with an empty set:</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "data": [
    ]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have registered as a Facebook developer and created an "app", so I am the administrator for the app. I have also created a "closed" Facebook group, with two events, where I am an administrator.</p>
  
  <p>I select my app in the <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Facebook Graph API Explorer</a>, select "Get User Access Token" and give the permissions "user_events" and "user_managed_groups". (At one point, I selected all permissions, to no avail).</p>
  
  <p>Querying the group object gives:</p>
  
  <pre><code>GET /v3.0/&lt;group-id&gt;
  
  {
    "name": "Test",
    "privacy": "CLOSED",
    "id": "&lt;group-id&gt;"
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>So I know that I have the correct group ID. However, querying events gives an empty set:</p>
  
  <pre><code>GET /v3.0/&lt;group-id&gt;/events
  {
    "data": [
    ]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Trying to list my own events gives the same result (I have a number of "accepted" events on Facebook):</p>
  
  <pre><code>GET /v3.0/me/events
  
  {
    "data": [
    ]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Have I missed something in my app setup? Have I done something wrong with the token?</p>
  
  <p>edit: I have not done the app review. My goal is to read out some events for me and friends, not a business venture. Making the app 'live' is not a goal.</p>
