LoginManager.getInstance().registerCallback(callbackManager, new FacebookCallback<LoginResult>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(LoginResult loginResult) {
GraphRequest request = GraphRequest.newMeRequest(
loginResult.getAccessToken(),
new GraphRequest.GraphJSONObjectCallback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(JSONObject object, GraphResponse response) {
parseFbResponse(object);
}
});
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("fields", "id,name,email,birthday,work,about,photos.limit(6){link}");
request.setParameters(parameters);
request.executeAsync();
Response -
{}photos
[]data
{}0

name : "♥️♥️♥️♥️😘😘😘😘😘"
id : "2534011966656881"

/* make the API call */
new GraphRequest(
AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
"/{photo-id}",
null,
HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
/* handle the result */
}
}
).executeAsync();

(#803) Some of the aliases you requested do not exist: {education-experience-id} Android

I am trying to get education detail and work description of user from facebook. I login successfully and get Access token. But I am unable to get details I want
Code I am using for it :-
public void getUserExpandEducation() {
new GraphRequest(
AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
"/{education-experience-id}", //"/{user_education_history}",//
null,
HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
Log.d("fb response",response.toString());
}
}
).executeAsync();
}
can anyone please reply
I am getting error (#803) Some of the aliases you requested do not exist: {education-experience-id}

Finally I got full work and education detail by this code:
GraphRequest request = GraphRequest.newMeRequest(
accessToken,
new GraphRequest.GraphJSONObjectCallback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(
JSONObject object,
GraphResponse response) {
FirstNameSocial = object.optString("first_name");
LastNameSocial = object.optString("last_name");
GenderSocial = object.optString("gender");
EmailSocial = object.optString("email", "");
id = object.optString("id");
if (!EmailSocial.equals("")) {
login_type = Config.Login_Type_facebook;
callAPI(EmailSocial, id, "");
} else {
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Permision Denied", Toast.LENGTH_LONG)
.show();
}
}
});
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("fields", "id,name,email,birthday,gender,first_name,last_name,picture,education,work");
request.setParameters(parameters);
request.executeAsync();
Might help someone !
Happy coding :)

Make sure you authorized with that permission: user_education_history
API call to get a list of education IDs: https://developers.facebook.com/tools/explorer/?method=GET&path=me%3Ffields%3Deducation
In your code, you need to replace the following string with one of the resulting education IDs: {education-experience-id}
For example:
new GraphRequest(
AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken(),
"/12345",
null,
HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(GraphResponse response) {
Log.d("fb response",response.toString());
}
}
).executeAsync();

Android - Get profile cover picture from Facebook

I am using Facebook SDK and Parse SDK and I want to retrieve the profile cover picture.
I am doing the following:
new Request(
ParseFacebookUtils.getSession(),
"/me?fields=cover",
null,
HttpMethod.GET,
new Request.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
Log.wtf("TAG",
response.toString());
}
}).executeAsync();
But I am not able to get the proper response since it says I need an access token (the user has already been logged in).
{Response:
responseCode: 400,
graphObject: null,
error: {
HttpStatus: 400,
errorCode: 2500,
errorType: OAuthException,
errorMessage: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.
},
isFromCache:false
}
Is there any fix for this available?

After spending A LOT of hours searching for the answer, I finally got it !!!
The Android SDK for Facebook docs, are too useless.
To solve this problem we just need to set the Graph Path in the second param and a Bundle with fields as third param. Example:
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("fields", "cover");
new Request(ParseFacebookUtils.getSession(),
"me",
params,
HttpMethod.GET,
new Request.Callback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
//code...
}
}).executeAsync();
Then we can parse the response object returned in onCompleted as JSON with
response.getGraphObject().getInnerJsonObject();
//or
response.getGraphObject().getProperty("cover");

Facebook changed a few things and has some terrible documentation. Hope this helps someone else it's what worked for me.
public void getCoverPhotoFB(final String email, AccessToken accessToken){
if(!AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken().getPermissions().contains("user_photos")) {
Log.e(L, "getCoverPhotoFB....get user_photo permission");
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithReadPermissions(
this,
Arrays.asList("user_photos"));
}
////
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putBoolean("redirect", false);
params.putString("fields", "cover");
new GraphRequest(
accessToken,
"me",
params,
HttpMethod.GET,
new GraphRequest.Callback() {
public void onCompleted(final GraphResponse response) {
Log.e(L, "getCoverPhotoFB..."+response);
// thread is necessary for network call
Thread thread = new Thread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
try {
String picUrlString = (String) response.getJSONObject().getJSONObject("cover").get("source");
Log.d(L,"getCoverPhotoFB.....picURLString....."+picUrlString);
URL img_value = new URL(picUrlString);
Bitmap eventBitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeStream(img_value.openConnection().getInputStream());
saveImageToExternalStorage(eventBitmap, email + "_B.png");
homeProfile(profile, email);
} catch (Exception ex) {
ex.printStackTrace();
}
}
});
thread.start();
}
}
).executeAsync();
}

Android - Facebook API : post image

I'm building an app that allows Facebook users to create new events. I noticed that I can't create an event and add an image to it in a unique Graph API call. So I make another call to post the image:
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.my_image);
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putParcelable("source", bitmap);
Request postImageRequest = new Request(Session.getActiveSession(), eventId + "/picture", params, HttpMethod.POST, new Callback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
Log.e("", response.toString());
finish();
}
});
postImageRequest.executeAsync();
But but I get this error response from FB servers:
HttpStatus: 400, errorCode: 324, errorType: OAuthException,
errorMessage: (#324) Missing or invalid image file}, isFromCache:false

Request photoImageRequest= Request.newUploadPhotoRequest(Session.getActiveSession(), bitmap, new Request.Callback(){
#Override
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
Log.e("", response.toString());
finish();
}});

New Facebook SDK and OAuthException in Graphpath requests

I saw a buch of answers regarding this problem with the older versions of the SDK, and I can't seem figure out why this is happening to me.
if I use this code, it works perfectly:
String QUERY = "select uid, name, pic_square, is_app_user from user where uid in (select uid2 from friend where uid1 = me())";
protected void getFacbookFirends() {
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("q", QUERY);
final Request req = new Request(getSession(), "/fql", params, HttpMethod.GET, fbCallback);
runOnUiThread(new Runnable() {
#Override
public void run() {
Request.executeBatchAsync(req);
}
});
}
but this is very ugly, so I tried using this instead:
Session session = Session.getActiveSession();
if (session == null) {
session = new Session(getActivity());
}
if (session != null && session.isOpened()) {
Request req = Request.newGraphPathRequest(session, "/me/friends?fields=id,name,installed,picture",
new Callback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
Log.w("FriendsListFragment.Facebook.onComplete", response.toString());
}
});
Request.executeBatchAsync(req);
}
to my understanding, this is the exact same request and should run just the same way, but instead of getting the response I wanted, I get this Response object:
{Response:
responseCode: 400,
graphObject: null,
error: {FacebookServiceErrorException:
httpResponseCode: 400,
facebookErrorCode: 2500,
facebookErrorType: OAuthException,
message: An active access token must be used to query information about the current user.
},
isFromCache:false
}
any thoughts about how I can make this work nicely?
EDIT:
I tried running this code and still got the same result:
Request req = new Request(session, "/me/friends?fields=id,name,installed,picture",null, HttpMethod.GET,
new Callback() {
#Override
public void onCompleted(Response response) {
Log.w("FriendsListFragment.Facebook.onComplete", response.toString());
}
});
Request.executeBatchAsync(req);

Request req = new Request(session, "/me/friends?fields=id,name,installed,picture",null, HttpMethod.GET, .......
Don't put the entire path in the graph path parameter, everything after the ? should be in the params parameter that you set to null. Try this instead:
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("fields", "id,name,installed,picture");
Request req = new Request(session, "me/friends", params, HttpMethod.GET, .......
That will do the trick.
