From (RestFB 2023.9.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.restfb.types.AbstractFacebookType
- - com.restfb.types.FacebookType
  - - com.restfb.types.NamedFacebookType
    - - com.restfb.types.From

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable
```
public class From
extends NamedFacebookType
```
From type is used as replacement for the case we need a user or a page. Because these both types have different fields we have this special handling. Because the minimal intersection of page and user are id and name, so the From object extends the {@see NamedFacebookType} and as fast access name and id are available.
