I want to run a use case to capture personal details (status & location) from Facebook using Apache NiFi. Please advice how to capture that information using which processor and example of attributes. Also if we need to capture change in notification of such details - how do we track it.

Ingesting data from Facebook using NiFi before has been asked before. I'd suggest you start there: https://community.hortonworks.com/questions/43184/how-to-get-facebook-feeds-into-nifi.html

As for detecting change, that is a whole other question/problem. It would require information about where you're eventually putting the Facebook data, how much data you're track, etc. in order to know how to query it to determine if it changed. I'd suggesting asking another question with those details (and any more you can share).

Hi. Any suggestions on this issue. I am waiting to march forward on this use-case

Facebook only let's you see information that you are allowed to see.

You have set your Facebook security settings and your app settings.

You also will only have access to information that users want you to see.

Work it out in the Facebook graph explorer first and then use that API call.

That may be unicode.

Are you using an American English ID or another language that may be stored in unicode due to other characters not in UTF-8?

Characters like these will be unicode encoded in JSON: பதவியேற்ற
