Facebook

Facebook Login (Graph API v24.0). OAuth2 without PKCE, plus a separate Limited Login path whose JWTs are verified against Facebook's dedicated JWKS.

Configure

from better_auth import BetterAuth
from better_auth.oauth.providers_ext import Facebook

auth = BetterAuth(
    secret=...,
    social_providers={
        "facebook": Facebook(client_id="…", client_secret="…"),
    },
)

Or name-keyed (no import):

auth = BetterAuth(
    secret=...,
    social_providers={
        "facebook": {"client_id": "…", "client_secret": "…"},
    },
)

Options

Field	Type	Default	Notes
client_id	str | list[str]	required	The app id. Also used (with client_secret) to app-bind opaque tokens via debug_token.
client_secret	str	required
fields	list[str]	[]	Extra Graph profile fields appended to the /me request (beyond id,name,email,picture).
config_id	str | None	None	Facebook login configuration id — sent as the config_id authorize param.
disable_id_token_sign_in	bool	False	Refuse direct token sign-in (both JWT and opaque paths).

All shared ProviderConfig options apply.

Notes

• Default scopes: email public_profile.
• Register {base_url}{base_path}/callback/facebook as a valid OAuth redirect URI in the Meta developer console.
• Two token paths on direct sign-in: a 3-segment JWT is a Limited Login token, verified against https://limited.facebook.com/.well-known/oauth/openid/jwks/ (issuer https://www.facebook.com); anything else is an opaque access token, validated through Graph debug_token (must be valid, bound to a configured app id, and carry a user_id).
• The Graph /me endpoint is not app-bound, so the access token is app-verified via debug_token before its profile is trusted, and the returned profile id must match the token's user_id.
• Limited-Login id tokens carry no email_verified claim — mapped as False.
