title: Facebook API Graph - Search for events (access token)
body: <p>I try search the the pages and the events by two different calls (still using Graph Explorer):</p>
  
  <p>search?fields=name&amp;q=warsaw&amp;type=page</p>
  
  <p>search?fields=name &amp;q=warsaw&amp;type=event</p>
  
  <p>The second (events object) works only with user token. When I generate app token there is invalid token error. Is it possibile to get results for second query with app token? It&#x2019;s important for me, I need use it in my own code.</p>
  
  <p>Can I generale user token within scripts (HTTPS request),</p>
  
  <p>OR generale long time user token (I mean user token for my own profile)</p>
  
  <p>OR (most desired solution) get results for secong call above (type=event), by app token?</p>
  
  <p>UPDATE:</p>
  
  <p>Ok, sory, so it’s clearly that app token doesn’t support search for event (but I still don’t understand why – events, such as page is public object and it doesn’t contain a private data).</p>
  
  <p>I’m going to clarify another way. I’d like to download information about events and use it in my own site (database) as public. This operation’s objective is create database of FB events (something like Eventbrite). So I need make that set as public (belongs to app/site, not user profile). </p>
  
  <p>I know that’s not a standard usage of Facebook API, but if it infringes the FB policy, please write me – I haven’t find clearly statement for that. I’ve ask about it here <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/27768541/terms-of-use-data-from-facebook-api/27768573#27768573">Terms of use data from Facebook API</a>. I guess it’s legal.</p>
  
  <p>Now. I can retrieve events by page node (get all events for each page), but it’s strongly uneffective – only few page of whole are the event’s organisators. I need explore directly events. </p>
  
  <p>Is there any solution for that problem?</p>
