Extended Life Access Token Keeps Expiring
1

My Extended Life Access Token is continuing to expire daily.

The Access Token Debugger tool indicates:

"Error validating access token: The session has been invalidated because the user changed their password or Facebook has changed the session for security reasons."

Have you had any luck since you reported this issue? We have users going through the same thing BUT other users will have no problems at all

Have you tried following this: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/guides/access-tokens/get-long-lived/

Yes indeed - that is the protocol I use to generate the long lived tokens and I'm having to do it daily. I am not changing passwords or conducting any activities that should trigger the invalidation of this token.

I've found an old article https://medium.com/@Jenananthan/how-to-create-non-expiry-facebook-page-token-6505c642d0b1 that explains how you can do it.

There are a few points that do seem to not be applicable anymore.

Yet, you can consider using the https://developers.facebook.com/tools/accesstoken/ to debug your access tokens and see the expiry date alternatively, if this persists I'd suggest opening a ticket for further support.
