No Matter what i do, i cannot get a post published to an application page wall (the app being logged into) via an iPhone application. I'm able to log in using FBLoginDialog and then retrieve data to populate a tableview, however when i click a button to publish some test content it doesn't work. Here is the button action:
- (void)compose:(id)sender;
{
NSString *tid=#"115372005166292";
NSString *body = #"My Test";
NSArray *obj = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:body,[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#", tid],nil];
NSArray *keys = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"message",#"target_id",nil];
NSDictionary *params = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjects:obj forKeys:keys];
[[FBRequest requestWithDelegate:self] call:#"facebook.stream.publish" params:params];
}
I have also used the FBStreamDialog which works, however i'm faced with two issues there. The dialog lacks customization and i'm unable to handle the callback when the item is posted (e.g. reload the tableview)
I've been searching the internet and all of the examples are similar to the code above, so i'm not sure what i could be missing.
Thanks
You need to ask for extended permissions. After login show this:
FBPermissionDialog* dialog = [[[FBPermissionDialog alloc] init] autorelease];
dialog.delegate = self;
dialog.permission = #"status_update";
[dialog show];

I am working on Facebook integration and trying for Single Sign-On with publish feed functionality.
I am using latest FacebookSDK. I have Facebook's Hackbook example code but, i am new to all this so it is being difficult to understand completely all this things.
While searching on SSO i got some code, It is working fine. Here is the code i am using (At the end of this page there is a source code attached)
FBUtils.h and FBUtils.m class
ViewController.m
- (IBAction)publishFeed:(id)sender {
//For SSO
[[FBUtils sharedFBUtils] initializeWithAppID:#"3804765878798776"];
NSArray *permision = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:#"read_stream",#"publish_stream", nil];
[[FBUtils sharedFBUtils] LoginWithPermisions:permision];
[FBUtils sharedFBUtils].delegate = self;
FBSBJSON *jsonWriter = [FBSBJSON new];
/// for publishfeed
NSArray* actionLinks = [NSArray arrayWithObjects:[NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
#"Get Started",#"name",#"https://itunes.apple.com?ls=1&mt=8",#"link", nil], nil];
NSString *actionLinksStr = [jsonWriter stringWithObject:actionLinks];
// Dialog parameters
NSMutableDictionary *params = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
#"I have lot of fun preparing.", #"name",
#" exam", #"caption",
#" ", #"description",
#"https://itunes.apple.com", #"link",
#"http://mypng", #"picture",
actionLinksStr, #"actions",
nil];
AppDelegate *delegate = (AppDelegate *)[[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
[[delegate facebook] dialog:#"feed"
andParams:params
andDelegate:self];
When i tap Facebook button in my app it is redirect me to Facebook and then retuning back to my app. Now , what i want is to fire publishFeed event right after returning back to the app and it should ask direct for post or cancel options to the user. But it is asking for login again like this.
Can any one help me in this or please suggest me the right way.
Your Suggestions would be a great help.
In your method, you're not checking if the app has permissions to publish post and if the user logged in before. So, every time you call this method, the app wants you to login. I think that is the problem.
If I'm right, you need to add permission and login control in your method like this. This is my sample code from another project, you can get the logic behind it.
- (IBAction)facebookShare:(id)sender
{
AppDelegate *appDelegate = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] delegate];
// You check the active session here.
if (FBSession.activeSession.isOpen)
{
// You check the permissions here.
if ([FBSession.activeSession.permissions
indexOfObject:#"publish_actions"] == NSNotFound) {
// No permissions found in session, ask for it
[FBSession.activeSession
reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions:
[NSArray arrayWithObject:#"publish_actions"]
defaultAudience:FBSessionDefaultAudienceFriends
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// If permissions granted, publish the story
[self postFacebook];
[[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Result"
message:#"Posted in your wall."
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:#"OK"
otherButtonTitles:nil]
show];
}
}];
} else {
// If permissions present, publish the story
[self postFacebook]; // ------> This is your post method.
[[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Sonuç"
message:#"Duvarında paylaşıldı."
delegate:self
cancelButtonTitle:#"Tamam"
otherButtonTitles:nil]
show];
}
}
else
{
// If there is no session, ask for it.
[appDelegate openSessionWithAllowLoginUI:YES];
}
// NSLog(#"Post complete.");
}
I know - I have read the documentation - but frankly Facebook is horrible at it. I can't figure out how to send a request that illicits a response. Here's what I'm trying:
NSURL *fbID = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://graph.facebook.com/me?fields=id"];
fbUserID = [[NSData alloc] initWithContentsOfURL: fbID];
Where should this code go? Is there a specific class it is looking for if I have set 'self' as delegate?
How are you trying to integrate FB into your app? I have been looking into Facebook connect recently and found their documentation very helpful (http://developers.facebook.com/docs/guides/mobile/#ios). I know you said you looked at the documentation, but for me after going through their steps for iOS I was able to make an app that allowed users to sign in and give me access to their basic information, including ID. After going through authorization, I had the following code in my app delegate:
- (void) fbDidLogin {
//get information about the currently logged in user
[facebook requestWithGraphPath:#"me" andDelegate:self];
}
- (void)request:(FBRequest *)request didLoad:(id)result {
NSString *name = [result objectForKey:#"name"];
NSString *msg = [[NSString alloc] initWithFormat:#"To prove this works, your name is %#",name];
UIAlertView *alert = [[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"Thanks for Logging In!"
message:msg
delegate:nil
cancelButtonTitle:#"OK"
otherButtonTitles:nil];
[alert show];
[alert release];
}
This gets the user's full name after logging in and displays it. You can do the same thing for getting their ID.
I was ussing Facbook connect in my iPhone app, but in december the posts stopped working. After some research I found that i'm supossed to use stream.publish, something like:
NSString *att = #"{\"bob\":\"i\'m happy\",\"caption\": \"User rated the internet 5 stars\", \"description\": \"a giant cat\"}";
NSDictionary *attachment = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObject:att forKey:#"attachment"];
[[FBRequest requestWithDelegate:self] call:#"facebook.stream.publish" params:attachment];
Which i think it's correct, but the posts still don't work. Someone told me that i need to get publish_stream extended permission from the user, but i dont know how to do that.
Present the FBPermission dialog and ask the user for the extended permission
FBPermissionDialog* dialog = [[[FBPermissionDialog alloc] initWithSession:session] autorelease];
dialog.delegate = self;
dialog.permission = #"publish_stream";
[dialog show];
I am new to iphone development, i want to display the permission page after logging facebook.
buttonIndex is the index of my actionsheets.
if(buttonIndex == 1)
{
session = [FBSession sessionForApplication:#"My App key" secret:#"My Key" delegate:self];
FBLoginDialog* dialog = [[[FBLoginDialog alloc] initWithSession:session] autorelease];
[dialog show];
}
by using those code successfully loggin to facebook, but i want to permission page to display,
so i can use,
- (void)session:(FBSession*)session didLogin:(FBUID)uid
{
NSLog(#"User with id %lld logged in.", uid);
FBPermissionDialog* dialog1 = [[[FBPermissionDialog alloc] init] autorelease];
dialog1.delegate = self;
dialog1.permission = #"uid";
[dialog1 show];
}
But its not working. Where can i put that code.
And I want to share my content after the permission allowed.
If i logout the facebook, it goes to the browser but i want to return my application after logout,
Please help me out, guide me plz.
I would change this dialog1.permission = #"uid"; to something like this
dialog1.permission = #"publish_stream";. Because you want to publish your content to the users stream, right?
- (void)session:(FBSession*)session didLogin:(FBUID)uid
After loggin in I would first check if you might already have the permission to publish to the user's stream, by creating a FBRequest
NSDictionary *params = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys: #"publish_stream", #"ext_perm", nil];
[[FBRequest requestWithDelegate:self] call:#"facebook.users.hasAppPermission" params:params];
The result you can evaluate here
- (void)request:(FBRequest*)request didLoad:(id)result
e.g. like this
if ([request.method isEqualToString:#"facebook.users.hasAppPermission"])
{
NSString *success = result;
if ([success isEqualToString:#"1"])
{
NSLog(#"User has app permission");
// publish content now
...
}
else
{ // else ask for permission, opening permission dialog
...
}
I highly recommend this guy's tutorial, Brandon Treb, on integrating Facebook. He does a very thorough presentation and takes you line-by-line, so if it does not work, its a typo on your part. His tutorial got me up and running in less than two hours.

I found out how to send some text on the user's wall, with the FBConnect API, on iphone.
I even found how to put an image already on the internet :
FBFeedDialog* dialog = [[[FBFeedDialog alloc] init] autorelease];
dialog.delegate = self;
dialog.templateBundleId = 12345;
dialog.templateData = #"{\"image\":[{\"src\":\"http://sample.png\",\"href\":\"http://sample.com\"}] }";
[dialog show];
(see http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Facebook_Connect_for_iPhone)
But I can't figure out how to upload an UIImage from my iphone to the user's wall with FB Api.
Do I have, first, to upload the image on any website, then put its url in the templateData ?
Isn't there any simpler solution ?
Thanks.
Martin
Use the below function to upload the image, pass the UIImage as the parameter, it will work.
- (void)uploadPhoto:(UIImage *)uploadImage
{
NSMutableDictionary *args = [[[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init] autorelease];
[args setObject:uploadImage forKey:#"image"]; // 'images' is an array of 'UIImage' objects
[args setObject:#"4865751097970555873" forKey:#"aid"];// this should be album id
uploadPhotoRequest = [FBRequest requestWithDelegate:self];
[uploadPhotoRequest call:#"photos.upload" params:args];
NSLog(#"uploading image is successful");
}
[[FBRequest requestWithDelegate:self] call:#"facebook.photos.upload" params:params dataParam:(NSData*)img;
and pass params to nil . it will upload image to default album
