Facebook Graph API GET request - Should contain "fields" parameter (Swift, Facebook SDK v4.5.1)
this line needs a parameters value that is NOT nil
let graphRequest : FBSDKGraphRequest = FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "me", parameters: nil)
I'll expand more, for example, and this is psuedo code of sorts:
so for ObjC it would be this, for example, so the the above would read the following:
parameters:@{@"fields": @"id, name"}
In swift it would be something similar
something like this:
parameters:["fields": "email"]
This is for just two fields, and again it's psuedo code, but you need to specify the parameters
UPDATE:
Im adding this update to show folks where you find the parameters for the fields as described above, here's a quick link:
Here's the Paramters field info (this should stay roughly static with FBSDK, some of this is "core" which means it won't really change that much, but I'll update whenever I can):

use "fields" as Key and then comma separate your values
let params = ["fields": "email, friends"]
In Obj-C insert in the logInWithReadPermissions method:
parameters:@{@"fields": @"id, name, email"}
if you leave nil in parameters you only receive id and name in the result object, although you have set for example:
NSArray *permissionsArray = @[ @"email", @"public_profile"];
It´s not very clear in the documentation, hope it can helps.
I had the same problem, but adding field options would generate a request error when fetching the user photo. I solved this problem by adding a simple parameters:@{@"fields": @""}
to the code:
FBSDKGraphRequest *request = [[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"me/picture"]
parameters:@{@"fields": @""}
HTTPMethod:@"GET"];
[request startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection,
id result,
NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// success
} else {
// fail
}}
];
