List of Graph API methods

Graph API is just another look on a our traditional HTTP-based API.

Essential differences between our Graph API and REST API are:

• no signature required;
• method’s logic and execution result could could be different for POST and GET requests;
• session token is not required. Access_token is used instead.

Graph API request is a combination of such components as:

• API server address ({api_server}). Current address: https://api.ok.ru/graph;
• nodes - basically an object on which an action is taken. I.e. /me - user;
• edges - optional parameter which stands as a link or a connection between nodes. I.e., user or group messages - /messages;
• fields - a list of object parameters used in a query. I.e., timestamp=0 - time when message was created;
• access_token - a token needed to access Graph API methods.
