error while using through Azure R notebook

[daroczig]

Based on the HTTP response (403), I don't think it's an fbRads issue -- but rather an Azure firewall limitations. See eg the below threads:

• https://moderndata.plot.ly/using-plotly-in-jupyter-notebooks-on-microsoft-azure/
• https://github.com/Microsoft/AzureNotebooks/issues/42

So I think there's a whitelist for allowed domains (eg GitHub) where you can make connections from a notebook, but the Facebook Graph API is not among those.

Can you please double check? Eg a prior fbad_init function runs without any problems?

Hello,

Seems plausible, thanks for pointing that out; fbad_init runs with no problems

[daroczig]

Hm, then https://graph.facebook.com is whitelisted, as the fbad_init function uses the same graph.facebook.com domain for the API endpoint. Do you always get this error whenever you try to run fb_insights? Did you try any other fbRads functions?

Seems to be related to Azure firewall and not really a problem in the package, but please reopen if that's not the case.
