Facebook connector extracts only one friend

On connecting to Facebook and using the "Friends" connection, only one firends name gets pulled. Screenshot attached. Where am I going wrong? .

    Hi Mahima

     

    Facebook API for friends returns only those friends who are also using this app (i,e Power BI). V1.0 used to return all the friends, but from V2.0 onwards, facebook updated their API to restrict this list. 

     

    Thanks,

    Suvidha
