Yes - use the members connection. Check out the Group reference on the Graph API.

First you need an access token. I'd recommend this article:


If you want a permanent access token you must ask for the "offline_access" extended permission on getting it.

After that, it's just a matter of issuing a REST API call:


and you'll receive a JSON list of all the members of that group. Very handy!

Check the members link on


If you click on that link it will generate a oauth token for you, then simply substitute the groupid

It will only return 500 members though

 Request request = new Request(Session.getActiveSession(),
                groupId+"/members", bundle,
                HttpMethod.GET, new Request.Callback() {}
