Twitter Kit Android - TwitterApiClient retweet does not work - android

In my app so far, I am displaying a tweet (my own for now) using the Twitter Kit for Android and have a Retweet button with which I am attempting to (go figure) retweet using the Twitter API Client.
Here are the links I referred to before this:
1) Twitter REST APIs from Android
2) Twitter Community Discussion on Retweeting using the TwitterApiClient
This is the code I'm using:
val twApiClient: TwitterApiClient = TwitterCore.getInstance().apiClient
tbTweet.setOnMenuItemClickListener {
when (it.itemId) {
R.id.item_retweet -> {
val call: Call<Tweet> = twApiClient.statusesService.retweet(tweetID, true)
Log.i("Retweet", if (call.isExecuted) "Successful" else "Failed")
}
}
true
}
I'm not getting any errors but when I go to my Profile Page on twitter, the retweet doesn't show up. The same problem has been stated in the 2nd link I provided, but no solution was given.
I also Log out the Execution Status. It comes as "Failed", so I know that the call retweet() isn't even executing. But why?
What is the problem and how do I fix it?

So, apparently the code above is incomplete. You have to call execute() on the call object that is returned from the retweet(tweetId, true) method. And then, you can call an onCompleteListener to see if your retweet was successful or not.

Deleting a user from Azure Active Directory B2C Android/Java

I have an Android application in which I'm using Azure AD B2C to authenticate users. Users login and logout of the application as needed. I would like to give the user the option to delete their own account.
I understand that I need to use the Azure AD Graph API to delete the user. This is what I have so far:
According to this link, it looks like deleting a user from a personal account (which is what the B2C users are using) is not possible. Is that correct?
Here's my code snippet for the Graph API call. Feel free to ignore it if I'm off track and there is a better way to solve this.
I believe I need a separate access token than what my app currently has (as the graph API requires other API consent). So, I'm getting the access token as follows:
AcquireTokenParameters parameters = new AcquireTokenParameters.Builder()
.startAuthorizationFromActivity(getActivity())
.fromAuthority(B2CConfiguration.getAuthorityFromPolicyName(B2CConfiguration.Policies.get("SignUpSignIn")))
.withScopes(B2CConfiguration.getGraphAPIScopes())
.withPrompt(Prompt.CONSENT)
.withCallback(getGraphAPIAuthCallback())
.build();
taxApp.acquireToken(parameters);
In the getGraphAPIAuthCallback() method, I'm calling the Graph API using a separate thread (in the background):
boolean resp = new DeleteUser().execute(authenticationResult.getAccessToken()).get();
Finally, in my DeleterUser() AsyncTask, I'm doing the following:
#Override
protected Boolean doInBackground(String... aToken) {
final String asToken = aToken[0];
//this method will be running on background thread so don't update UI from here
//do your long running http tasks here,you dont want to pass argument and u can access the parent class' variable url over here
IAuthenticationProvider mAuthenticationProvider = new IAuthenticationProvider() {
#Override
public void authenticateRequest(final IHttpRequest request) {
request.addHeader("Authorization",
"Bearer " + asToken);
}
};
final IClientConfig mClientConfig = DefaultClientConfig
.createWithAuthenticationProvider(mAuthenticationProvider);
final IGraphServiceClient graphClient = new GraphServiceClient.Builder()
.fromConfig(mClientConfig)
.buildClient();
try {
graphClient.getMe().buildRequest().delete();
} catch (Exception e) {
Log.d(AccountSettingFragment.class.toString(), "Error deleting user. Error Details: " + e.getStackTrace());
}
return true;
}
Currently, my app fails when trying to get an access token with a null pointer exception:
com.microsoft.identity.client.exception.MsalClientException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'long java.lang.Long.longValue()' on a null object reference
Any idea what I need to do to provide the user the option to users to delete their own account? Thank you!
Thanks for the help, #allen-wu. Due to his help, this azure feedback request and this azure doc, I was able to figure out how to get and delete users silently (without needing intervention).
As #allen-wu stated, you cannot have a user delete itself. So, I decided to have the mobile app call my server-side NodeJS API when the user clicks the 'Delete Account' button (as I do not want to store the client secret in the android app) and have the NodeJS API call the Azure AD endpoint to delete the user silently. The one caveat is that admin consent is needed the first time you try to auth. Also, I have only tested this for Graph API. I'm not a 100% sure if it works for other APIs as well.
Here are the steps:
Create your application in your AAD B2C tenant. Create a client secret and give it the following API permissions: Directory.ReadWrite.All ;
AuditLog.Read.All (I'm not a 100% sure if we need the AuditLog permission. I haven't tested without it yet).
In a browser, paste the following link:
GET https://login.microsoftonline.com/{tenant}/adminconsent?
client_id=6731de76-14a6-49ae-97bc-6eba6914391e
&state=12345
&redirect_uri=http://localhost/myapp/permissions
Login using an existing admin account and provide the consent to the app.
Once you've given admin consent, you do not have to repeat steps 1-3 again. Next, make the following call to get an access token:
POST https://login.microsoftonline.com/{B2c_tenant_name}.onmicrosoft.com/oauth2/v2.0/token
In the body, include your client_id, client_secret, grant_type (the value for which should be client_credentials) and scope (value should be 'https://graph.microsoft.com/.default')
Finally, you can call the Graph API to manage your users, including deleting them:
DELETE https://graph.microsoft.com/v1.0/users/{upn}
Don't forget to include the access token in the header. I noticed that in Postman, the graph api had a bug and returned an error if I include the word 'Bearer' at the start of the Authorization header. Try without it and it works. I haven't tried it in my NodeJS API yet, so, can't comment on it so far.
#allen-wu also suggested using the ROPC flow, which I have not tried yet, so, cannot compare the two approaches.
I hope this helps!
There is a line of code: graphClient.getUsers("").buildRequest().delete();
It seems that you didn't put the user object id in it.
However, we can ignore this problem because Microsoft Graph doesn't allow a user to delete itself.
Here is the error when I try to do it.
{
"error": {
"code": "Request_BadRequest",
"message": "The principal performing this request cannot delete itself.",
"innerError": {
"request-id": "8f44118f-0e49-431f-a0a0-80bdd954a7f0",

}
}
}

Facebook App Invite with Cordova-plugin-facebook4

I am trying to implement Facebook app invite with this plugin in my ionic application. The implemented codes are following as below:
$scope.appInviteToFriend = function(user){
var url = "";
if (ionic.Platform.isAndroid())
{
url = "https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.example.application";
}
else if (ionic.Platform.isIOS())
{
url = "https://itunes.apple.com/nl/app/example-by-ionicapplication/id1983838444?l=en&mt=8";
}
var option = {
url: url,
picture : ""
};
facebookConnectPlugin.appInvite(
option,
function(obj){
if(obj) {
if(obj.completionGesture == "cancel") {
// user canceled, bad guy
} else {
// user really invited someone :)
}
} else {
// user just pressed done, bad guy
}
},
function(obj){
// error
console.log(obj);
}
);
}
When I executed these codes, the Facebook Invite Dialog opens and displayed app information correctly. But after click next button, select friend and also click send button, The error occurs. It says "Missing App Link URL. The app link used with this invite does not contain an Android or iOS URL.Developers are required to enter URl for at least one platform.". I've attached the error details with part of screenshot. Are these wrong the URLs which are store URL? How can I set the URLs?
You need to provide an App Link instead of a web URL. This link can be statically generated using Facebook's own tools, or you can generate them dynamically server-side. You can read more about these in the documentation.
Here's a tutorial that walks through setting up an Android app.

Login in Facebook SDK for Unity3d in android

I need help using Facebook SDK for Unity3d in android. I was trying to do all the tutorial said, but I can't login succesfully. I do FB.Init and its ok, but FB.Login never works. Always return this:
{
"is_logged_in":false,
"user_id":"",
"access_token:"",
"access_token_expires_at":"01/01/0001 00:00:00"
}
please, i need fix it as soon as possible.
Thanks for all.
i had the same problem this fixed it for me i was using the wrong keyhash in facebook, maybe you have the same problem
open the AndroidFacebook script and scroll till you see this:
public void OnLoginComplete(string message)
{
var parameters = (Dictionary<string, object>)MiniJSON.Json.Deserialize(message);
if (parameters.ContainsKey("user_id"))
{
isLoggedIn = true;
userId = (string)parameters["user_id"];
accessToken = (string)parameters["access_token"];
accessTokenExpiresAt = FromTimestamp(int.Parse((string)parameters["expiration_timestamp"]));
}
if (parameters.ContainsKey("key_hash"))
{
keyHash = (string)parameters["key_hash"];
print (keyHash);
}
OnAuthResponse(new FBResult(message));
}
as you can see inside where it pertains to keyhash i put
print (keyHash);
so now if you run it and log in and use logcat on eclipse or a logger to see the print() that come out of the code check the keyhash you have in your facebook app and the one that is printed out with print (keyHash); witch is the correct one, hope this helps :)

View activity list of google plus on android

I'm following the documentation of google plus list and I am using this code:
Plus.Activities.List listActivities = plus.activities().list("me", "public");
listActivities.setMaxResults(5L);
// Execute the request for the first page
ActivityFeed activityFeed = listActivities.execute();
// Unwrap the request and extract the pieces we want
List<Activity> activities = activityFeed.getItems();
// Loop through until we arrive at an empty page
while (activities != null) {
for (Activity activity : activities) {
System.out.println("ID " + activity.getId() + " Content: " +
activity.getObject().getContent());
}
// We will know we are on the last page when the next page token is null.
// If this is the case, break.
if (activityFeed.getNextPageToken() == null) {
break;
}
// Prepare to request the next page of activities
listActivities.setPageToken(activityFeed.getNextPageToken());
// Execute and process the next page request
activityFeed = listActivities.execute();
activities = activityFeed.getItems();
This does not work because I have to create a client object. I tried more example but I do not understand how to do. Now:
How do I create a client object?
Where do I insert this client object?
I've seen a lot of answers but none work. You can Help me.
The comment that proceeded that code sample asked you to take a look at the Google+ Java quickstart, see the source file in question for how to set up your credentials and Plus client. You'll also need to authorize your request, that sample project shows how to use Google+ Sign-In to authorize the user to get an access token. You must have an authorized user to search with "me".
This sample is Java code using the Google Java API client library, the Android SDK doesn't include the client library by default, so you'd need to import that into your project.
I think you should take a look at this project : google API calendar
It works exactly like that with the G+ API.

Phonegap facebook plugin for android gives me an oauthexception

seriously going insane here....
I'm trying to get the phonegap facebook plugin for android to work, but it's really driving me up the wall (no pun intented).
I am using the code from https://github.com/irnc/phonegap-plugin-facebook-connect/tree/oauth-2.0+irnc, at least I think I am.
I appear to have two problems:
the following callback in the login (from pg-plugin-fb-connect) gives an error because "FB.Auth.setAuthResponse(response.authResponse, response.status);" cannot be found. Am I using an incorrect facebook sdk? Apparently no, see edit below
PhoneGap.exec(function (response) {
console.log('PG.FB.login.success: ' + JSON.stringify(response) + ', store into localStorage ...');
localStorage.setItem(key, JSON.stringify(response));
FB.Auth.setAuthResponse(response.authResponse, response.status);
if (cb) {
cb(response);
}
}, null, service, 'login', ['publish_stream', 'read_stream']);
},
When I comment the FB.Auth.setAuthResponse(response.authResponse, response.status); statement, my login returns successfull! I get an authresponse with an accesstoken and status set to connected. When I try to execute the following code (on success callback)
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
console.log(JSON.stringify(response.error, null, 4));
alert('We are very sorry, but somthing went wrong');
} else {
alert('Message was successfully posted to your wall!');
}
});
it gives me an oauthexception message: "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user."
I authenticated with 'read_stream, publish_stream' permissions.
These two are probably related, but I can't find anything about the setAuthReponse call in the facebook api.
EDIT help is apparently not on it's way, but i've continued my quest to get this to work.
The facebook js sdk I got from the github repo's are all using the 'old' auth methods. I've downloaded the new facebook js sdk and FB.Auth.setAuthResponse is there. I copied the code to my existing js sdk and changed all calls to setSession to setAuthRepsonse. Everything is working fine, except that the access token doesn't appear to be posted when I make above FB.api calls. After these changes, the error remains exactly the same!
Oh yeah, I also changed the check in the login callback to check for authResponse instead of session (it's in the example).
Help is more than welcome,
rinze
I think I fixed this. Basically the ConnectPlugin.java is still returning a "session" response object instead of the "authResponse" that the new SDK expects.
See https://github.com/odbol/phonegap-plugin-facebook-connect/commit/0ef84e29603338930ff82fc6d6ef8525b668077d for details.
