Did anyone used google scripts to post a message to a facebook profile?
I found this code but can't find a way to get the graph id...
function updateStatus(){
var myId="";
var myAppAccess_token="APP-ID|APP-SECRET";
var graphUrl="https://graph.facebook.com/"+myId+"/feed";
var theDate=new Date().toString();
UrlFetchApp.fetch(graphUrl,{method:"post",payload:{
message:"foo\n" + theDate,
access_token:myAppAccess_token
}
});
}

I have registered an app in facebook developers program and I can retrieve posts from facebook page using fb api, but I cannot retrieve posts from facebook profile. Should I use some different access token for both page or profile? Is there a different way for retrieving posts from facebook page and profile?
Any help will be appreciated!
You may need the user_status permission.
And you call the posts using this graph query {USER_ID}?fields=statuses
Prerequisite:- You need to have valida FB token for all the request:-
I am answering using c# language.
Step 1:- First you need to get the user's FB id using FB token
I am using Facebook SDK 7.0.6 for querying purpose
here's how to initialize the FB service which we will use in our consecutive calls.
FacebookService facebookService = new FacebookService(facebookToken);
var _facebookClient = new Facebook.FacebookClient(token);
Code snippet
public string GetFacebookID(string facebookToken)
{
dynamic result = _facebookClient.Get("me?fields=id");
if (result.ToString().Contains("id"))
{
return result["id"];
}
return string.Empty;
}
after that you can execute below method to get user's post using FB ID and token
public List<Post> GetPostsForUser(string facebookID)
{
List<Post> posts = new List<Post>();
dynamic result = _facebookClient.Get(facebookID + "/posts"); //Case Sensitive, Posts doesn´t work
if (result.ToString().Contains("data") && result.data.Count > 0)
{
foreach (var item in result.data)
{
posts.Add(new Post
{
ID = item.id,
Story = item.story,
Message = item.message,
Created_Time = Convert.ToDateTime(item.created_time),
Reactions = GetReactions(item.id)
});
}
result = _facebookClient.Get(GetNextURL(result.ToString()));
}
return posts;
}
Anyone knows how the facebook login works with the new preview spotify apps api?
I tried something like this...
require(['$api/facebook'], function(facebook) {
facebook.session.showConnectui();
}
but nothing got me to the result I got with the old api. I also tried to use plain FB js sdk, but the problem is it needs some "url" to allow connections...wich I can't really give out of the spotify app?
Any ideas?
The auth module was not present at first, but now it is part of the Spotify Apps API. You can read more about it on its documentation page. It looks like this:
require(['$api/auth#Auth'], function(Auth) {
var appId = '<your_app_id>',
permissions = ['user_about_me'];
var auth = new Auth();
auth.authenticateWithFacebook(appId, permissions)
.done(function(params) {
if (params.accessToken) {
console.log('Your access token: ' + params.accessToken);
} else {
console.log('No access token returned');
}
}).fail(function(req, error) {
console.error('The Auth request failed with error: ' + error);
});
}
});
In addition, there is a working example in the Tutorial App on GitHub.
I am creating my first facebook app using javascript sdk. In that i can able to post to the user's wall using(FB.api('me/feed', 'post', )).
Now what I need is, when the user accessing my app, it has to show (or list) the post of that user. The code is
FB.api('/me/posts', function(response) {
for (var i=0, l=response.length; i<l; i++) {
var post = response[i];
alert('The value of post is:'+post);
if (post.message) {
alert('Message: ' + post.message);
} else if (post.attachment && post.attachment.name) {
alert('Attachment: ' + post.attachment.name);
}
}
});
But it is not working. If I remove l=response.length and change the condition as i<5 it is going inside the loop but it gives the value of post is undefined.
I didn't get why it is returning as undefined. It returns same for post.message also.
I am getting the access_token of the user also.
If I want to get the post of my user what code i have to use. Can anyone help me in this.
Thanks in advance
You can use the Facebook Graph API Explorer to better understand what data you will be receiving. https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/
You should have l=response.data.length and var post = response.data[i];. Also, some posts will not have a "message", but will have a "story" instead (mainly posts like "Joe Smith and Tom Someone are now friends."). Make sure you also have the appropriate permissions (e.g. user_status) for the information you're trying to receive.
I'm absolutely new to programming and just managed to learn the basics of ActionScript 3. Now, I would like to learn how to post on my Friends' Walls via the as3 SDK using the UI class (taken from a nice Tutorial):
This is how I post on my own Wall:
protected function newsFeed ():void
{
// define your caption text
var theCaption:String = "CaptionText";
// define the descrition text
var theDescription:String = "Text for game Achievement";
// We need to follow the FB docs to tell it what sort of input we are sending to FB
// We are trying to set the 'feed'
var methodInput:String = 'feed';
var thePicture:String = "mylink/picture.png";
var theLink:String = "mylink";
var theName:String = "Name of FB Status Setter";
// Create an object that we'll call 'data' and fill it with the actual data we're sending to Facebook
var data:Object = {
caption:theCaption,
description:theDescription,
picture:thePicture,
name:theName,
link:theLink
};
Facebook.ui(methodInput, data, onUICallback);
}
protected function onUICallback(result:Object):void
{
// do something
}
This works perfectly fine. I know that I have to integrate the parameter "to" somewhere. But I don't know where and how. Sorry I'm very very new to this. This is from Facebook Docs
Properties
from: The ID or username of the user posting the message. If this is unspecified, it defaults to the current user. If specified, it must be the ID of the user or of a page >that the user administers.
to: The ID or username of the profile that this story will be published to. If this >is unspecified, it defaults to the the value of from.
Hopefully someone can help me out.
Best Regards,
Amir
P.S.: Is there a way to post only one friend's wall and another way to post on several friends' walls?
I believe you want to use Facebook.api() rather than 'ui'. According to the documentation for the AS3 FB API, 'ui' just opens the share dialog. If you want to create a post on a friends wall, then you'll want to use 'api'.
I haven't tested this in Flash, but I think you can set the method as /PROFILE_ID/feed ... of course replacing "PROFILE_ID" with the FB uid of the friend. Then, include the arguments; message, picture, link, name, caption, description and source in your data object.
So your code would look something like:
var method:String = "/friend_id/feed";
var data:Object = {};
data.message = "Your message";
data.picture = "http://www.google.com/kittens.jpg";
data.link = "http://www.mysite.com/link";
data.caption = "Your caption";
data.description = "Your description";
data.source = "http://www.mysite.com/video.swf";//(optional) source is a video or Flash SWF
Facebook.api(method, yourCallback, data, "POST");
function yourCallback(result:Object, fail:Object):void {
if (result) {
trace(result)
} else if (fail) {
trace(fail);
}
}
If you have multiple friends, you could probably just put the uid's in an array and loop through the method above. The AS3 API has a batch request method that I haven't tried, but you can check out the Documentation.
Facebook has some pretty helpful tools that are somewhat hidden.
Checkout their Debugger and their Graph API Explorer
Hope that's helpful.
Currently I'm working on my HTML 5 ASP.Net Application,
Which has requirement of Graffiti Wall, When user draw something on my Wall(means on my HTML 5 Canvas element), and Press Share Button on my Page, at that time the whole picture should need to be post on one of the Facebook Page.
Now my question is that is this thing possible using C# facebook sdk by codeplex ?
if its possible, than how to post image on facebook fan page using this SDK??
Where can I get the good resource the implement this kind of functionality or similar code.
I've check the all examples given by them, there is no any example which post on the facebook fan page.
Or even other library that can implement this kind of functionality.
I've check this library, and see that it has FacebookClient,ExpandoObject, FacebookMediaObject kind of classes, but how to and where to use this classes,where are the description and sample code.
Thanks,
Jigar Shah
you can post to others wall using "{id}/feed"
if you want to post image/video on wall. Try downloading the samples from nuget.
Install-Package Facebook.Sample
Here is how to do using the graph api.
public static string UploadPictureToWall(string id, string accessToken, string filePath)
{
var mediaObject = new FacebookMediaObject
{
FileName = System.IO.Path.GetFileName(filePath),
ContentType = "image/jpeg"
};
mediaObject.SetValue(System.IO.File.ReadAllBytes(filePath));
try
{
var fb = new FacebookClient(accessToken);
var result = (IDictionary<string, object>)fb.Post(id + "/photos", new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{ "source", mediaObject },
{ "message","photo" }
});
var postId = (string)result["id"];
Console.WriteLine("Post Id: {0}", postId);
// Note: This json result is not the orginal json string as returned by Facebook.
Console.WriteLine("Json: {0}", result.ToString());
return postId;
}
catch (FacebookApiException ex)
{
// Note: make sure to handle this exception.
throw;
}
}
