Facebook Chat API - Is Chat possible with 2 unknown users?

StackOverflow https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10784807

Question

I was wondering:

  1. Is it possible to chat with a friend who is not in our friend list through the API?

  2. Can 2 Unknown users use the Facebook Chat API to communicate? Is it possible anyhow (using PHP or JS?)

Was it helpful?

Solution

No, the only way to do this would be through the use of the Send Dialog where you could specify the UID of the non-friend in the &to= parameter. There is no API method publicly available for sending messages to non-friends.
