I am interested in using FB App Invites and app links functionality so users can invite their friends. I want to be able to pass referral code as well.
I don't have a web server nor do I know if I should for this purpose. I am just too confused about the process
I followed the docs and I was able to generate an app link using FB hosting tool in the form of https://fb.me/123456789
I can use that in the App invite dialog that I will integrate in my android app.
Now my question is, how can I add referral code to that so when the new user download the app, the newly installed android app will receive that referral code?
Facebook's policy does not allow awarding for (all)invites/sharing/commenting/liking any more.
You could anyway implement it like airbnb that you award the user who is downloading the app with something, when being referred. If you only want to track conversions you should utilize Facebook's insights dashboar
Update
If you want to track Google Play reffs utilize this: https://developers.google.com/analytics/devguides/collection/android/v4/campaigns#general-campaigns

I'm a student doing university project in which we are developing an app that has the use case to combine social media feeds of the users. For this i need access to facebook graph api "user_post"
I have already made an app on facebook developer portal and i have written code for facebook login inside my android app but now i want to work on user feed but when i went to request permission section, they are asking for app review, business verification etc. Now problem is that how can i submit my app for review when i have not access to api in order to develop and test it.
I'm searching ways for 2-3 weeks but all solutions are not working as facebook has updated alot of things. I will be very thankful if someone will be able to help me with this facebook api access as i'm new to it.
You can always test it with your account, that is admin, developer or tester in the App. user_posts will work with that account without review.
With Facebook AppInvite, i want to send invite with an invitation code. But i want that if the user don't have the app installed and if he need to download it first from the play store/app store, then after the first launch of the app, the app must be able to retrieve the invitation code (from referal for example? or delayed deep link?) ...
Is it possible to do so with the facebook SDK ? if yes is their any exact tutorial / sample how to do so ?
I would also like to do the same with facebook share
Yesterday I logged in to Airbnb with my Facebook account on my OSX. Shortly later I got a notification both on my iPhone and computer saying
"Airbnb is available to install on your iPhone"
My question is, does anyone here know how this was done? Is this a feature available to anyone who creates Facebook login? Any advice on how this was done is well appreciated.
Sincerely
Axel
I bet the notification is sent to you by Airbnb, right? If so, it's pretty easy to do. You give your facebook account information to Airbnb by login with facebook in there webpage. Then they just send a graph api request to facebook with your authorization access token, and you get an notification. For details you can refer to doc here: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/games/notifications
I found out what I was talking about. Facebook is adding a new feature which ask users if they want to get a link to the mobile app.
This is in Beta right now but you will automatically eligible for the feature if:
You have integrated the new Facebook Login on your website. You must be using at least version 2.0 of the Graph API and Login Dialog. Send to Mobile is not available for apps which invoke the Login dialog using Graph API v1.0.
You have integrated Facebook Login into your iOS or Android app. The "Single Sign On" switch within iOS and Android section of your app's dashboard must be set to "Yes"
Added your iOS App Store ID and/or the Android package name under which your app is listed in Google Play to your Facebook app's dashboard.

I want to integrate gmail authentication with my android app just like facebook authentication(by giving username and password).
I have gone through https://developers.google.com/+/mobile/android/sign-in the site and I don't want to integrate google plus(because I'm using an emulator which has no google plus installed application). Also I don't want to authenticating using my existing account in my device.
I have seen lots of similar questions here and most of them are redirected to goole+ or use account manager to access existing account. I need a good tutorial which contains all the procedures to be carried out. I hope you understand what I meant. Please help..
