#fbmdown - Facebook Message Downloader This is my small pet project but it might be useful for someone. It does what is in its name: downloads whole conversation threads from your Facebook inbox folder!

Run fbmdown-cli.py and follow the help.

##How to get an Access Token?

• Go to Graph API Explorer
• Click on Get Access Token
• Deselect all except the read_mailbox under Extended Permissions
• Click Allow in the pop-up. This will allow the Graph API Explorer app to access your inbox
• Select and copy the text from Access Token and insert it into fbmdown.py where it is needed
• Enjoy!
