Using Facebook and Twitter through AndroidSocialNetworks - android

I am trying to integrate Facebook and Twitter in my Android app just to post some text information.
Facebook is almost working, user can log normally, but when I execute
mSocialNetworkManager.getFacebookSocialNetwork().requestPostMessage("Facebook test",
new OnPostingCompleteListener() {
#Override
public void onPostSuccessfully(int i) {
System.out.println("Facebook post success!");
}
#Override
public void onError(int i, String s, String s2, Object o) {
System.out.println("Facebook error: " + s2);
}
});
No onPostSuccessfully nor onError get called. Same thing with the demo app (it shows eternally the waiting dialog). Is it a recent change in Facebook API or something wrong with the lib?
On the other side, Twitter always returns an error when trying to SocialNetwork.REQUEST_LOGIN.
Error:
401:Authentication credentials (https://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth) were missing or incorrect. Ensure that you have set valid consumer key/secret, access token/secret, and the system clock is in sync.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<hash>
<error>Desktop applications only support the oauth_callback value 'oob'</error>
<request>/oauth/request_token</request>
</hash>
I think consumer key and secret are correctly set.
mSocialNetworkManager = SocialNetworkManager.Builder.from(getActivity())
.twitter(SocialNetworkConstants.TWITTER_API_KEY, SocialNetworkConstants.TWITTER_API_SECRET)
.facebook().build();
Image from API keys section
Do you know why do I get that error?
Thanks in advance.

v0.3.2 includes fix for Facebook sharing.
As for Twitter,
When you created application, did you enter OAuth callback like 'oob'?
Possibly try to enter some website url as OAuth callback. Another possible issue is that you have invalid time on your phone, please check Settings -> Date & Time and insure that Automatic Date & Time checkbox is checked.

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",
"date": "2020-06-04T06:41:14"
}
}

PayPal Here Android SDK Error - BadConfiguration: Cannot proceed with this merchant account

I'm trying to integrate the PayPal Here swipers into a Xamarin Android app. Everything is fine until I try and give my credentials to the SDK. Specifically, the line containing the call to PayPalHereSDK.SetCredentials
public void InitializeSdk( Context context, string serverName, string accessToken, string refreshUrl, string expires, IPayPalHereSdkWrapperCallback listener ) {
PayPalHereSDK.Init( context, serverName );
PayPalHereSDK.RegisterAuthenticationListener( this );
PayPalHereSDK.CardReaderManager.RegisterCardReaderConnectionListener( this );
if ( !string.IsNullOrEmpty( accessToken ) ) {
var credentials = new OAuthCredentials( accessToken, refreshUrl, expires );
PayPalHereSDK.SetCredentials( credentials, new SetAccessTokenResponseHandler( listener ) );
}
}
My SetAccessTokenResponseHandler class implements the Com.PayPal.Merchant.Sdk.Domain.IDefaultResponseHandler interface. As described above, the OnError function is called when call the PayPalHereSDK.SetCredentials function. I'm given the error code "BadConfiguration" and the message "Cannot proceed with this merchant account. ready"
I've searched Google high and low and, I believe, scoured SO pretty thoroughly. I can't seem to overcome the error, so I'm asking for help!
I think the paypal email is not verified properly. Please go through the merchant onboarding guide document to get more details regarding making the merchant eligible.
https://github.com/paypal/paypal-here-sdk-android-distribution/blob/master/docs/Merchant%20Onboarding%20Guide.pdf
Hope this helps. Cheers.
I'm not sure what exactly the issue was, but I ended up deleting the Sandbox App in my PayPal dev portal and creating a new one. Everything works now. head scratch
I resorted to this because, while trying to follow Sundar's suggestion, I started getting an "invalid scope" error. I had received them before and KNEW I had it fixed ( and no code had changed ). When I deleted/recreated the app, that error went away. Frustrating, but that's what worked!

Register a New User with the Mobile SDK for Android on AWS Cognito

Im trying to develop a sing up for AWS Cognito in Android. I just checked the official doc but in the Register a New User section there is only the sample for using SignUpHandler.
Checking other sections, for example Using the JavaScript SDK there is a clear sample using
userPool.signUp('username', 'password', attributeList, null, function(err, result)
Im trying to implement this aproach transpolating the javascript example. But I was wondering if there is any complete sample of sign up for Android?
Thanks in advance!!
The handler you noticed is a parameter for the call to sign up, much like 'function(err, result) in the JS example. Take a look at this part of the docs, it shows how to use that handler. From the example you screenshotted, it might look like this:
userPool.signUpInBackground(userId, password, userAttributes, null, handler);
Here is a complete sample using the link sugested by Jeff:
CognitoUserAttributes attributes = new CognitoUserAttributes();
attributes.addAttribute("phone_number","+15555555555");
attributes.addAttribute("email","email#mydomain.com");
cognitoUserPool.signUp('username', 'password', attributes, null, new SignUpHandler() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(CognitoUser cognitoUser, boolean b, CognitoUserCodeDeliveryDetails cognitoUserCodeDeliveryDetails) {
// If the sign up was successful, "user" is a CognitoUser object of the user who was signed up.
// "codeDeliveryDetails" will contain details about where the confirmation codes will be delivered.
}
#Override
public void onFailure(Exception e) {
// Sign up failed, code check the exception for cause and perform remedial actions.
}
});
The sections Examples of Using User Pools with the Mobile SDK for Android seems to be outdated.
Hope to help somebody else ;)

Facebook Account Kit require an appsecret_proof argument Error

I'm trying to retrieve the user PhoneNumber/email using Facebook Account kit.
I'm always getting an error as response:
200: Server generated an error: 145: API calls from the server require
an appsecret_proof argument
I already Disabled the option on Facebook Developer Dash Board.
Require app secret for server API calls
Here is my code:
public void onLoginPhone(final View view) {
final Intent intent = new Intent(getActivity(), AccountKitActivity.class);
AccountKitConfiguration.AccountKitConfigurationBuilder configurationBuilder =
new AccountKitConfiguration.AccountKitConfigurationBuilder(
LoginType.PHONE,
AccountKitActivity.ResponseType.CODE); // or .ResponseType.TOKEN
// ... perform additional configuration ...
intent.putExtra(
AccountKitActivity.ACCOUNT_KIT_ACTIVITY_CONFIGURATION,
configurationBuilder.build());
startActivityForResult(intent, APP_REQUEST_CODE);
}
and this is onActivityResult:
AccountKit.getCurrentAccount(new AccountKitCallback<Account>() {
#Override
public void onSuccess(final Account account) {
// Get Account Kit ID
String accountKitId = account.getId();
// Get phone number
PhoneNumber phoneNumber = account.getPhoneNumber();
String phoneNumberString = phoneNumber.toString();
// Get email
String email = account.getEmail();
}
#Override
public void onError(final AccountKitError error) {
// Handle Error
}
});
Simple solution to solve above problem, just follow following step.
Step 1 : Go to Facebook developer console
https://developers.facebook.com/
Step 2 : Select your application from the
https://developers.facebook.com/apps/
Step 3: After selecting your application Click on Account kit located at left side panel of console below the product Title.
Step 4 : After click on Account kit you see the Reuired App Secret switch button with yes/no option right side of it.
Step 5 : Turn Off (No) the Reuired App Secret from the there ( below the allow sms login )
Step 6 : Click on Save changes tab.
Step 7 : Run your application, you will got whatever you want.
If you have still any query ask me to any time. may be these help to you or other person.
I had the same problem. The three steps which solved my problem:
Turn off the option "App Require Secret"
Make sure the option "Enable Client Access Token Flow " has turned on, set
to "YES"
User this AccountKitActivity.ResponseType.TOKEN instead of AccountKitActivity.ResponseType.CODE
ResponseType.CODE will never return you the mobile number.
Hope it helps.

What is a Page ID for the place field in Post Facebook Graph API?

I am having trouble while trying to post a message on the current end-user Facebook wall with my Android Application.
So far :
The user is logged in with all the required permissions, especially
the publish_actions permission ;
I am using the last version of Facebook SDK 3.x & Graph API v2 as of May 2014
Post to wall works now as of EDIT 2, but there are issues with
privacy settings : post cannot be seen by anyone not even the
recipient who is tagged in the post ! See EDIT 2 for more details
Here is the documentation for posting a message on the user wall :
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.0/user/feed (go to Publishing)
Regarding the message that needs to be posted on the user' wall, I need to tag some friends that were previously selected by the user.
But to use the tag field I need to use the place field.
The documentation says :
Name: tags
Comma-separated list of user IDs of people tagged in this post. You cannot specify this field without also specifying a place.
Type: csv[string]
Name: place
Page ID of a location associated with this post.
Type: string
What is location page ID ? How do I get it ?
Oddly enough, in my specefic case, I am offering the possibilty to the user to share is upcoming travel on Facebook.
More oddly enough, this travel is defined by dates and a destination (name of destination + latitude & longitude). The user has the possibility to also share this travel to his friends that are located in his travel's destination hence the need to tag his friends to the wall post.
[EDIT 1]
After looking into #Tobi solutions, I managed to post a message on the end-user wall (in my case me, since I am the developper).
So far : the message is correctly displayed with a friend tagged (a dummy account I use for tests purpouses) and there is also the place : Paris, France.
Using the following search query (thanks #Tobi) search?q=Paris,France&type=place I can get the ID of Paris, France.
Since I did not code the part to retrieve the Place ID it put it manually in the code for the sake of testing the feature first.
[END OF EDIT 1]
[EDIT 2]
I noticed I forgot to add the part with the privacy values to my args Bundle. But it did not change a damn thing : my post is only visible to me alone.
Going to my Facebook wall, here is what I get :
Hovering the public parameters of the posts (a padlock icon) says "All tagged persons".
Clicking on the icon shows the list of settings with only "Only me" selected.
Why "only me" even though I specifically said me + my dummy account in the request parameters ?
Even weirder : changing the property of the publication parameters to "customized" with my dummy account does not change a damn thing as well. Just why ? Facebook is really getting on my nerve...
For the rest, the message content is correctly displayed and the related place is the good one. At least a got that correctly. But still, I just don't get the rest ...
[END OF EDIT 2]
So here is the updated code :
if (this.session != null && this.session.isOpened()) {
final Bundle args = new Bundle();
if (this.selectedContacts.isEmpty() == false) {
args.putString("message", message);
args.putString("place", "170558129707208"); //manually added Paris, France ID
String tags = "";
//here I made some modifications regarding the tags so that is built correctly
for (int it = 0; it < this.selectedContacts.size(); it++) {
final String name = this.selectedContacts.get(it).toString();
final String friendID = String.valueOf(getIdFromName(name)); // returns an int
if (it == this.selectedContacts.size())
tags += friendID;
else
tags += friendID + ",";
}
// Forgot to add privacy values to bundle !
final JSONObject privacyValues = new JSONObject(); //not android JSON, but JSON-Simple lib
privacyValues.put("value", "CUSTOM");
String allow = this.currentUser.getId() + "," + tags;
privacyValues.put("allow", allow); // to limit the visibility of this post
args.putString("privacy", privacyValues.toJSONString()); //forgot that one...
final Request shareTravelRequest = new Request(this.session, this.currentUser.getID() + "/feed",
args, HttpMethod.POST, new Request.Callback() {
public final void onCompleted(final Response response) {
//TODO
}
}
);
final Response response = shareTravelRequest.executeAndWait();
if (response.getError() == null) // in this case, no error occurred
return true;
else {
this.lastErrorMessage = response.getError().getErrorMessage();
Log.e("Something went wrong while posting Facebook message", this.lastErrorMessage);
Log.e("Error type is", response.getError().getErrorType());
Log.e("Error code is", String.valueOf(response.getError().getErrorCode()));
return false;
}
}
}
Unfortunately I must have mistaken somewhere because although the post does appear on my Facebook wall with my dummy account tagged and with the correct link to the place, my dummy account cannot see the post.
I tried creating manually the same post on my Facebook wall by using the following settings :
First I supplied a message
Second I supplied a place
Third I tagged my dummy account
Four I choose who can see this post : me and my dummy account
And finally, I post the message.
In this case, my dummy account sees the post both on its wall and on my wall.
So I would like to know what parameters I must get wrong because there is not much parameters and I just don't see why.
Thanks !
You can either use the Search and use the type place (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/using-graph-api/v2.0#search), or, if you have positioning date, use an FQL query on the place table (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/fql/place/) as described here: Facebook places: order results by distance
Use two test accounts made via Facebook Developer App settings and not a dummy account that breaks TOS. Since you request publish_actions you probably didn't submit the app for review. Unless your dummy account is a developer/tester in roles as well (which is breaking the TOS again) then your dummy account will not be able to see the post.
Only developers and testers of an unpublished application can see posts made by that application.
