[FIXED] Getting list of Facebook friends with latest API

Issue

I'm using the most recent version of the Facebook SDK (which lets to connect to something called the 'graph API' though I'm not sure). I've adapted Facebook's example code to let me connect to Facebook and that works... but I can't get a list of my friends.

$friends = $facebook->api('friends.get');

This produces the error message: "Fatal error: Uncaught OAuthException: (#803) Some of the aliases you requested do not exist: friends.get thrown in /mycode/facebook.php on line 543"

No clue why that is or what that means. Can someone tell me the right syntax (for the latest Facebook API) to get a list of friends? (I tried "$friends = $facebook->api->friends_get();" and get a different error, "Fatal error: Call to a member function friends_get() on a non-object in /mycode/example.php on line 129".)

I can confirm that BEFORE this point in my code, things are fine: I'm connected to Facebook with a valid session and I can get my info and dump it to the screen just... i.e. this code executes perfectly before the failed friends.get call:

$session = $facebook->getSession();
if ($session) {
    $uid = $facebook->getUser();
    $me = $facebook->api('/me');
}
print_r($me);

Solution

I think this is what you want:

$friends = $facebook->api('/me/friends');
