title: How can I get the events for a Facebook page?
body: <p>Using the latest version (2.12) of the Facebook API I'm trying to get (public) events for a page, using the Graph API Explorer.</p>
  <p>However, I can't seem to get it working:</p>
  <p><a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Xy0JG.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/Xy0JG.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>When I hover over the greyed out &quot;id&quot; or &quot;name&quot; on the left, it says &quot;Field is empty or disallowed by the access token&quot;.</p>
  <p>Now the page I'm using as an exmple here is Techcrunch, and they have plenty of events coming up. So &quot;empty&quot; doesn't seem to be the issue.</p>
  <p>On the &quot;disallowed&quot; side I've checked the API reference on <a href="https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/page/events/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/page/events/</a>.</p>
  <p>However, I can't seem to find any issue here either. It says &quot;Reading Page events requires a valid Page access token or User access token with basic permissions.&quot;.</p>
  <p>What am I missing here? Any hints are greatly appreciated!</p>
