Solution: You can use SELECT * FROM ... here to fetch User class data on the basis of id.

Please use the column name that you want to fetch, see User class:

id,  name,  about, bio, birthday, email, firstName, lastName, gender, location  etc........


String query = "SELECT uid, name FROM user WHERE uid=220439 or uid=7901103";
List<FqlUser> users = facebookClient.executeQuery(query, FqlUser.class);


System.out.println("Users: " + users);

...

// Be aware that FQL fields don't always map to Graph API Object fields.

public class FqlUser {
  @Facebook
  String uid;
  
  @Facebook
  String name;


  @Override
  public String toString() {
    return String.format("%s (%s)", name, uid);
  }
}
