Summary

Paging means splitting a long collection of data into multiple smaller components, called Pages. Do not confuse this type of page with a Facebook Page Object or a web page.

  • The number of records in a page can be set using a parameter called limit. The default value for limit is 25.
  • The offset parameter can be used to specify the first object in the collection that should be returned. The default value for offset is 0.
  • Pages can be defined by combining offset and limit parameters – although the Graph API is a little unstable on that point at time of writing.
  • The since and until parameters filter a Graph List to a specified range of dates and times.
  • Dates and times can be written in a wide range of formats; see http://www.php.net/manual/en/datetime.formats.php ...
