PROCESS 2

Short Way (Developer Style)

We will use opengraph to find out your facebook profile ID.

1. Go to http://graph.facebook.com/USERNAME
2. Replace “USERNAME” with your Facebook user/profile name.
3. You will get your profile details as shown in the picture below.

The above example is from “Mark Zuckerberg’s” opengraph details (Don’t know Mark Zuckerberg?) with his profile name “zuck“. By visiting: http://graph.facebook.com/zuck , we get ‘4‘ as his facebook profile ID.
