I am developing a facebook app where I need impersonation of users, so there is an option when you use facebook for "Use Facebook As", i need to implement the same in my app.
I see the access tokens retrieved for the pages I own, but I don't understand how to use this with the following graph api to post
var body = 'Reading JS SDK documentation';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function (response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
so my question is how do I set the access token for the api in this case??
I Hope, am clear with my question
Add it with the parameters. Change this line
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function (response) {
to...
var my_token = "the access token value";
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body, access_token : my_token }, function (response) {

I have tried to post a message on my wall using FB.api(). I posted it successfully but it's showing only for me. I want to make this post public.
In app Configuring permissions i set "Default Activity Privacy" value Public but still message posting private.
I tried to do it by following code:
FB.login(function (response) {
if (response.authResponse) {
var privacy = { 'value': 'EVERYONE' };
var txt = 'my post to test feed post using api';
FB.api('me/feed', 'post', { message: txt, privacy: privacy }, function (response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert(JSON.stringify(response.error));
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
}
}, { scope: 'email,user_likes,publish_actions,publish_stream,read_stream' });
Please check my code.
As said in reference 'privacy' field value should be string.
Try to pass "{ 'value': 'EVERYONE' }" as string, not an object.
I'm using the Facebook JS SDK to publish to the GRAPH API, and while my post publishes successfully, it returns a strange response object that gets caught by the jQuery .error chain. Here's my code:
var jqxhr = $.post("https://graph.facebook.com/"+sbFacebook.authentication.userID+"/feed",
{
'message' : $("#question-text").val(),
'access_token' : sbFacebook.authentication.accessToken
}).success(
function(response) {
console.log(response);
})
.error(function(response) {
alert(response);
})
The response object looks like this:

Anyone have any idea what's going on and why it's getting caught by the error() function?
Thanks.
This is not how you should use Facebook JS SDK.
var body = 'Reading JS SDK documentation';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
Don't forget to initialize the JS SDK:
I am using the Facebook Javascript SDK to upload a photo to the user's timeline. This is my call:
function post_photo_to_facebook() {
var file_name = 'https://my-image.url.com/image.jpg';
var access_token = FB.getAuthResponse()['accessToken'];
$.ajax({
type: "POST",
url: "https://graph.facebook.com/me/photos",
data: {
message: "Here is my message",
url: file_name,
access_token: access_token,
format: "json"
},
success: function(data){
alert("POST SUCCESSFUL");
},
error: function(data){
alert('Error');
console.log(data);
}
});
}
When in Chrome, I am receiving an Error back from this AJAX call, yet the statusText is "OK", and the image is being successfully uploaded to my timeline. I am just wondering what I am missing here - why is the error being called?
You should be using FB.api to upload images, rather than ajax POST due to CORS reasons.
So your code above would look like this:
var file_name = 'https://my-image.url.com/image.jpg';
FB.api('/me/photos', 'post', {
message:'Here is my message',
url:file_name
}, function(response){
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
and you use FB.init to set up your tokens etc.
My problem is that i want to post to user wall using the offline_access.
I donot know how to do that using the facebook javascript sdk
with this method FB.api('/me/feed')
Please also give me an example how to integrate the facebook connect with asp
If the user has already authenticated and has given publish_stream or offline_access permissions, you can just call this method to publish to their feed:
var body = 'Reading Connect JS documentation';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
I am planning an app that will post to a users FB wall. When posting via the GraphAPI is an object id returned for the new post? We want to use the post id later to retrieve data about the post.
If you look at FB.ui() example for stream.publish, post_id is returned with the response.
Looking at this example from their FB.api docs, it certainly seems possible.
var body = 'Reading Connect JS documentation';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { body: body }, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response);
}
});
