How to upload video with Facebook graph API - facebook

Question

I've been struggling for weeks to get figure out how to upload video using the graph api. I've gone through all the documentation and i just don't understand what i must do to get a correct response from the graph api before i write the code. I've included an image.
Can someone just tell me like a child what I must put in exactly?

Answer 1

Figured out how to use graph api with c# for unity.
you can post a comment and post a video.
the url given is just an open video that was available, choose your own if you want, or if it becomes unavailable in the future.
enjoy!
using UnityEngine;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Facebook.Unity;
using Facebook.MiniJSON;
public class FBVideoPost : MonoBehaviour {
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
// this is to post string
postStatus ();
//this is to post video
this.StartCoroutine(this.StartVideoUpload());
}
void postStatus()
{
var formdata = new Dictionary<string, string>();
formdata.Add ("message", "This is my third post!");
FB.API("/me/feed", HttpMethod.POST, delegate (IGraphResult callback){
Debug.Log ("This is a test!");
},formdata);
}
private IEnumerator StartVideoUpload()
{
yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame();
WWW www = new WWW("http://techslides.com/demos/sample-videos/small.mp4");
while(!www.isDone) {
yield return null;
Debug.Log("progress : "+www.progress);
}
Debug.Log("size : "+www.size);
var wwwForm = new WWWForm();
wwwForm.AddBinaryData("file", www.bytes, "Video.MOV","multipart/form-data");
wwwForm.AddField("title", "Hello World");
wwwForm.AddField("description", "How you doing?");
FB.API("me/videos", HttpMethod.POST, UploadFinish, wwwForm);
}
private void UploadFinish(IGraphResult result) {
Debug.Log("result : "+result.ToString()+" , error : "+result.Error);
}
}

I will post another forum thread where you answered yourself and that helped me in addition to your answer here.

In short, for anyone looking to "Upload Videos using the FB SDK from iOS", follow Luke's answer and add the following:
using UnityEngine;
using System;
using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using Facebook.Unity;
using Facebook.MiniJSON;
public class FBVideoPost : MonoBehaviour {
// Use this for initialization
void Start () {
// this is to post string
postStatus ();
//this is to post video
this.StartCoroutine(this.StartVideoUpload());
}
void postStatus()
{
var formdata = new Dictionary<string, string>();
formdata.Add ("message", "This is my third post!");
FB.API("/me/feed", HttpMethod.POST, delegate (IGraphResult callback){
Debug.Log ("This is a test!");
},formdata);
}
private IEnumerator StartVideoUpload()
{
yield return new WaitForEndOfFrame();
///ADD THIS
//this is the path to your file.
String VideoLocStr = Application.persistentDataPath + "Your_Video.mov"
String pathForIOS = VideoLocStr.Replace (" ","%20");
WWW www = new WWW(pathForIOS);
///
while(!www.isDone) {
yield return null;
Debug.Log("progress : "+www.progress);
}
Debug.Log("size : "+www.size);
var wwwForm = new WWWForm();
wwwForm.AddBinaryData("file", www.bytes, "Your_Video.mov","multipart/form-data");
wwwForm.AddField("title", "Hello World");
wwwForm.AddField("description", "How you doing?");
FB.API("me/videos", HttpMethod.POST, UploadFinish, wwwForm);
}
private void UploadFinish(IGraphResult result) {
Debug.Log("result : "+result.ToString()+" , error : "+result.Error);
}
}
Thanks, Luke.
Good luck to everyone.
