Facebook Ads API Cron Job

_x000D_ _x000D_ We are trying to use the facebook ad reporting api to update a 3rd party app to keep up-to-date on our daily spending on facebook. We would like for these values to update automatically via a cron job but this doesn't appear to work. We have to go to the page and refresh it, for it to refresh the api data. Is it possible to get our script to update automatically? Here is our access token code. I thought it was possible to get a long lived token and save it to the database and use that but we are unable to retrieve the accessToken because its :protected in the return json. use FacebookAds\Api; use FacebookAds\Object\AdSet; use FacebookAds\Object\AdGroup; use FacebookAds\Object\Fields\AdSetFields; use FacebookAds\Object\Fields\AdGroupFields; use FacebookAds\Object\AdAccount; use FacebookAds\Object\Fields\AdAccountFields; use Facebook\FacebookSession; use Facebook\FacebookRequest; use Facebook\GraphUser; use Facebook\FacebookRequestException; use Facebook\FacebookRedirectLoginHelper; use Facebook\FacebookSDKException; use Facebook\Entities\AccessToken; // Initialize the SDK FacebookSession::setDefaultApplication( $app_id, $app_secret ); // Create the login helper and replace REDIRECT_URI with your URL // Use the same domain you set for the apps 'App Domains' // e.g. $helper = new FacebookRedirectLoginHelper( 'redirect' ); $helper = new FacebookRedirectLoginHelper( $redirect_uri ); // Check if existing session exists if ( isset( $_SESSION ) && isset( $_SESSION['fb_token'] ) ) { // Create new session from saved access_token $session = new FacebookSession( $_SESSION['fb_token'] ); // Validate the access_token to make sure it's still valid try { if ( ! $session->validate() ) { $session = null; } } catch ( Exception $e ) { // Catch any exceptions $session = null; } } else { // No session exists try { $session = $helper->getSessionFromRedirect(); } catch( FacebookRequestException $ex ) { // When Facebook returns an error } catch( Exception $ex ) { // When validation fails or other local issues echo $ex->message; } } // Check if a session exists if ( isset( $session ) ) { // Save the session $_SESSION['fb_token'] = $session->getToken(); $access_token = $_SESSION['fb_token']; $long_session = $session->getLongLivedSession(); //print_r($long_session); $longtoken = $long_session->getToken(); // Create session using saved token or the new one we generated at login $session = new FacebookSession( $long_session->getToken() ); } else { // No session // Get login URL $loginUrl = $helper->getLoginUrl( $permissions ); //echo 'Log in'; header('Location: '.$loginUrl.''); } // Initialize a new Session and instanciate an Api object Api::init($app_id, $app_secret, $access_token); // The Api object is now available trough singleton $api = Api::instance(); // Get the GraphUser object for the cusrrent user: try { $me = (new FacebookRequest( $session, 'GET', '/me' ))->execute()->getGraphObject(GraphUser::className()); // echo $me->getName(); } catch (FacebookRequestException $e) { // The Graph API returned an error } catch (\Exception $e) { // Some other error occurred }
