How to create Facebook application to get app id for your website

In this article, I’ll show you how to set up a Facebook application for your website domain so you can integrate Facebook features on your website, such as the Share Button, which require that your domain have an App ID. Facebook defines “App ID” or “appId” as “a unique identifier for your site that ensures that we have the right level of security in place between the user and your website.”


When integrating the Facebook Social Plugins (Like Button, Send Button, Comments, etc.) into your website pages you don’t need an App ID, but for other features an App ID required, such as the Share Button.

It’s pretty easy to set up a Facebook application for your domain, providing you with an App ID you can use for Facebook integration features on all pages of your domain or subdomains of your domain.

Here’s how…

Facebook with ask your phone number and other relevant information. This is just to verification process. Facebook will send you verification code on your mobile which you suppose to enter as confirmation code.




That’s it. This all your have to do yourself register as Facebook developer.

Step – 2: Create new app
