Facebook connect API : Get user email - php

Question

I am working on a website in php where i have integrated a Facebook Connect API which enabled the Facebook login button.
My code to get user details looks like this:
<?php
session_start();
// added in v4.0.0
require_once 'autoload.php';
use Facebook\FacebookSession;
use Facebook\FacebookRedirectLoginHelper;
use Facebook\FacebookRequest;
use Facebook\FacebookResponse;
use Facebook\FacebookSDKException;
use Facebook\FacebookRequestException;
use Facebook\FacebookAuthorizationException;
use Facebook\GraphObject;
use Facebook\GraphUser;
use Facebook\Entities\AccessToken;
use Facebook\HttpClients\FacebookCurlHttpClient;
use Facebook\HttpClients\FacebookHttpable;
// init app with app id and secret
$appID = 'app id';
$appSecret = 'app secret code';
FacebookSession::setDefaultApplication( $appID, $appSecret);
// login helper with redirect_uri
$helper = new FacebookRedirectLoginHelper('http://localhost/test/facebook_new/fbconfig.php' );
try {
$session = $helper->getSessionFromRedirect();
} catch( FacebookRequestException $ex ) {
// When Facebook returns an error
} catch( Exception $ex ) {
// When validation fails or other local issues
}
// see if we have a session
if ( isset( $session ) ) {
// graph api request for user data
$request = new FacebookRequest( $session, 'GET', '/me' );
$response = $request->execute();
// get response
$profile = $response->getGraphObject('Facebook\GraphUser');
var_dump($profile);
} else {
$loginUrl = $helper->getLoginUrl();
header("Location: ".$loginUrl);
}
?>
After eecuting this code, var_dump($profile) displays only the User Facebook ID and his Full Name as displayed on the picture below:
What I want to get is the email. The email can be accessed through 'Facebook\GraphUser' but I really dont know what is wrong with my code.
Kindly help me solve this problem

Answer 1

$request = new FacebookRequest($session, 'GET', '/me?fields=name,email');
It is called "Declarative Fields", you have to specify the fields you want to get returned since v2.4 of the Graph API.
Also, make sure the user is authorized with the email permission.

Answer 2

Facebook users in their settings can set their email as private or public. This might be the reason it is not showing up for you.
