3. Select the Facebook tab and set Query to ""
4. In the Facebook tab click on "Login to Facebook" and login to get a valid access token. Notice: the access token is like a password to Facebook. Since it may be printed in the status log and saved in the application settings don't give anyone untrusted access to your computer or to the status log.
5. Select one or more nodes in the view and click "Fetch data".
6. Click "Expand nodes" in the toolbar and select one of the new child nodes. The raw data is shown to the right.
