I made a PHP script to make it easier. Create an app. In the Graph API Explorer select your App and get a user token with manage_pages and publish_pages permission. Find your page's ID at the bottom of its About page. Fill in the config vars and run the script.

'',
    'appid'=>'',
    'appsecret'=>'',
    'pageid'=>''
];

echo generate_token($args);

function generate_token($args){
    $r=json_decode(file_get_contents("https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/oauth/access_token?grant_type=fb_exchange_token&client_id={$args['appid']}&client_secret={$args['appsecret']}&fb_exchange_token={$args['usertoken']}")); // get long-lived token
    $longtoken=$r->access_token;
    $r=json_decode(file_get_contents("https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/me?access_token={$longtoken}")); // get user id
    $userid=$r->id;
    $r=json_decode(file_get_contents("https://graph.facebook.com/v2.8/{$userid}/accounts?access_token={$longtoken}")); // get permanent token
    foreach($r->data as $d) if($d->id==$args['pageid']) return $d->access_token;
}
