I’m tasked to deep link into a specific area of the Facebook app.
Needing the ability to link to the settings page where a user can edit their business profile.
Which is https://www.facebook.com/settings
I can achieve this with Instagram but have had no success with Facebook besides opening the app to the dashboard successfully via a basic fb://
Any help or insight would be amazing!

I am trying to enable deep linking from custom open graph stories. I have gone through the instructions listed
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/app-links
Deep linking works fine when I click from the Facebook timeline to the actual story post page and then click the object button. If I click the object button on the timeline itself, the url is NOT handled and instead is open directly in the Facebook webview.
This may be because I don't have a web platform added on my App Dashboard.
Facebook documentation reads
Deep linking in Open Graph stories If you're deep linking from an Open
Graph story published from your app, you will need to go through one
more step.
...
If you HAVEN'T already added a website for this app, in the App
Dashboard, inside your app's settings, click on ''Add platform'', and
select ''Website''. Then in any of the fields (either ''Site URL'' or
''Mobile site URL''), fill in your subdomain. It doesn't matter if you
don't have a website that you're integrating with Facebook, this will
register this subdomain for use with your native app.
However, when I try to add a the url in app settings (the screenshots match those in the documentation), my open graph submission is rejected by Facebook with the note:
Your app does not qualify for the submitted platform. In the app
settings tab, please remove platforms without Facebook integration.
Canvas or page tab apps cannot redirect users, and websites must
properly integrate Facebook login.
Anybody been through this before and can lend some guidance? I am very much confused by the documentation.
The deep-linking started working on its own about a week later without any changes on my part.
I'm basically trying to put all the functionality of this website: http://greenthumbweather.com/
into Facebook via the "website" platform.
I've started the app process in facebook and I entered the URL as website platform (attached image).
However, when I go to preview the "app", I just get a link to my website in the top right (attached image).
Do I have to recreate the entire functionality of the website within Facebook? Or can I just port the functionality into a Facebook app? I really would like users to be able to visit the website within Facebook, where it would grab their location information and customize my website based on their latitude/longitude.
Thanks for any help!
You can just port your website to facebook app but i think that depend on your desired output. Your website can also be ported to a canvas app.
I cannot find any information on this in the developers guide. I'm setting up a facebook app so users can connect and publish content to their feed. I want to create a page that looks like this: https://www.facebook.com/appcenter/houzzapp
On the right side you will see the two blue buttons, one that says Visit Website, the other Send to Mobile. These are the functions that I want as far as the facebook app is concerened. Does anyone know how to do this or can point me to some documentation or a tutorial?
This is Facebook's App Center.
In order to get your App on Facebook's App Center you have to go through a Approval which you can review/edit and submit via Your App -> App Details.
Once all necessary Fields and Pictures are uploaded, you can Submit App Detail Page.
Pointing out the Specific questions about Facebook's App Center:
Visit Website button: Will use the link you entered in your Basic Settings under Website with Facebook Login
Mobile Web: Will use the mobile version url you entered in your Basic Settings under Mobile Web
I am trying to get Facebook features (like button, and login capabilities) on my website but I am having a tough time figuring out how to do it. I have a Facebook page for my website too, I do not have an app, but from what I've seen I'm supposed to create this App profile through Facebook in order to access all of these features. I am simply confused. I have a website, I have a Facebook page for that website, now I want to link the two. Again, I do not have an app for the site, yet, as it is in its early development stages. Please help me figure out what I must do to link my website to Facebook capabilities
Just "create an application" for the website. I think what you are most confused about is actually building an app.
"Create an application" provides a reference for your application to reside. All Facebook plugins currently must be processed through the JS SDK which needs an application (reference) to make requests. You will see the benefits of doing this when using facebook.com/insights
Also your Facebook fan page has nothing to do with your website, think of it separately, it will cause less confusion. There is no way to link them.
Summary: Just click the "Create app" button, set the domain to your website domain and supply the application id to the JS SDK.
Have you checked out their site? https://developers.facebook.com/
All you need to do after registering with Facebook as a developer, you should have a control panel. After that you should have a dev key, so when you make an API call to Facebook that you can authentic yourself as a registered developer. You do need to enter the javascript file in the head section so that when you call the Facebook API your Javascript code knows to reference the calls.
basically i have integrated fb in my app and for that i have created the app in fb developer site.
I have got app id and i have authorized my app with fb using this id.
While asking permissions in fb, the auth dialog havn't appeared good. like i want to display auth dialog as below image.
but i didn't see above style of auth dialog while authorization. How will i get that style of dialog?.
Currently i am getting the below style of dialog.
Please advise in this regards.
Thanks!!!
Go to your facebook profile from which you have created your app,or from which you are accessing your app.
Then go to Privacy Setting -> Apps, Games and Websites
And here go to apps you use there click edit in front of your app and then remove it.
It will simply remove your permission and will ask you again as you have shown in screen.
If anything feel free to ask.
