  • App Name - The name of the app, using no more than 32 characters and no less than 3. Please make sure that your app name does not violate the trademark or other rights of a third party. Otherwise, we may be forced to remove your app.
  • App Namespace - The app namespace is used for defining custom Open Graph actions and objects (e.g., namespace:action) and for the URL for Apps on Facebook (e.g., http://apps.facebook.com/namespace)

 

As you see on picture attached above, we fill App Name field with "WishList Demo" value, and App Namespace with "demowishlist". Write there your own app name and namespace. It's important to write values correctly - if it is ok you will see "Valid" and "Available". When you click Continue button you will see dialog box with Captcha code in box, rewrite it and click next Continue button.
