I am using Easy Facebook android SDk v2.3. I could successfully access a page and get details of page including number of likes.
I am trying to implement like button in the app using setLikes(String likes); method of Page class but getting confused with what is to be passed as the parameter.
Sample Code :
p = Global.graphApi.getPage("Page ID");
p.setLikes(String likes); //what should likes be replaced with, replacing it with user id didn't work
Any help on this is appreciated.
According to the facebook documentation, (Page), you cannot like a Page via Graph API, even though you can read the like count information.
User, have to press the like button himself to like the page.
The accepted answer here may help you: like android application page in facebook from application itself

I am trying to get permission to access user's public profile so I can provide a link to this person's profile to other people using an app.
within the api response, we have a "link", but it is a https://facebook.com/... link, and not some intent link like fb://profile/<id>
So how can I create this link without global user id and username?
I also tried to use fb://facewebmodal/f?href=<link> but it redirects me to my own facebook home page (feed)
Thank you!
Dhiogo's anwser is not working anymore. Facebook's API retrieves an user_id when the user authenticates within your application. So all you have to do is use this user_id like this:
fb://facewebmodal/f?href=https://www.facebook.com/profile.php&user_id=[user_id]
This is a closed bug that Facebook didn't fixed: https://developers.facebook.com/bugs/332195860270199
But I could find a solution!!! All you have to do is to get the scoped link that facebook graph api generates (link permission) and replace the https://facebook.com/app_scoped_user_id/ with fb://profile/?app_scoped_user_id/ leaving the rest of the link as it is.
I hope this can help you.
I search google for this problem but I didn't understand answer I found.
Actually I want to Like page grammatically like I can post a message on Page behalf of user.
I have Long term access token getting it from my app.
I have an android app where user can login through facebook account and that time I asked user for the Post permission of facebook.
So how can I do it?
I implemented simple library which allows you to add Facebook 'Like' button easy:
dependencies {
compile 'com.shamanland:facebook-like-button:0.1.8'
}
Read more details here.
The simplest way to add like button:
<com.shamanland.facebook.likebutton.FacebookLikeButton
style="#style/Widget.FacebookLikeButton"
app:pageUrl="http://url.to.like/page.html"
app:pageTitle="Title of page"
app:pageText="Short description of page"
app:pagePictureUrl="http://url.to.like/picture.jpg"
/>
This view will be drawn in your layout:
After clicking on it you will see the dialog with official Facebook 'Like' plugin.
Hi in the Facebook SDK for the Android it is only possible to Share something not to Like. if you want to Like page you should use WebView and use Iframe in it to display like button.
How can i post message along with Picture using Facebook SDK 3.0 on Android,
The link -> can post small pic with link and all other information.
http://developers.facebook.com/docs/howtos/androidsdk/3.0/feed-dialog/
What i want, is only to post Pic on wall with message, not a link with description ?
I want grab screen shot of my current Android screen that i did and saved it into SD card, i need to post it with message on custom button click.
How can i do this with Facebook SDK 3.0 for android ?
You can use the Graph API to post photos to a user's wall.
See the reference page for more details.
In the Facebook SDK, you would use the Request class to make Graph API calls.
You can use the newUploadPhotoRequest method to add a photo.
If you want to add a description as well, try setting the "message" parameter:
Request photoRequest = Request.newUploadPhotoRequest(...);
Bundle params = photoRequest.getParameters();
params.putString("message", "description goes here");
photoRequest.executeAsync();
Facebook changed this implementation for there version 2 Graph API requests, they recommend a Custom Story instead of posting (if you have your own content to put on the wall of the facebook user beside his comment, or even without his comment)
documentation goes here :
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/android/open-graph?locale=en_GB
just an error in the documentation, the facebook Open Graph objects are refered to by a colon, and not a dot, for example
they mention an open graph Object named "book" in a work space named "books" that way
"books.book"
the correct way is
"books:book"
and after you finish implementation you will need to review your application to facebook, which it's documentation goes here as well
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/review?locale=en_GB
i really hate facebook documentation, it sucks
I am creating a mobile app which connects to some jive based community using childbrowser.
I can easily open the community, login and do stuff.
But I also need to fetch session details in my app, so that I could use these to fetch JSON strings to show user image/info on my app showing that user is logged in.
I tried working on childbrowser, but couldn't investigate much.
It seems it won't work with my community URL. While using google url it shows popups on location changes, but not for my url.
Can any one help me in fetching the data I want ?
Here is the sample code I am using to detect location change:
function openURL() {
window.plugins.childBrowser.onLocationChange= function(loc){
alert('In index.html new loc = ' + loc);
};
window.plugins.childBrowser.showWebPage("https://communityName.jive-mobile.com/#jive-login", { showLocationBar: false });
}
I am getting my login page, but after login I can't see any alert coming !!
I need to get proof of user login and user session details.
Thanks
I have just updated the ChildBrowser plugin for my own use, following code given here: How do I get the web page contents from a WebView?
I am using this to log in on Google API oAuth2, watching for the right page to load. I am using the onPageLoaded(html) event that has the (computed) html source. You might want to use this to get the html that was loaded and check for "stuff". I don't use jive so I wouldn't know where to start, but I'll put up a sample Google oAuth2 project for you to try.
HTH
EDIT:
the code is at: https://code.google.com/p/filechunkreader/
Don't let yourself get fooled by the name, this project is the repo for my Java plugins experiments. It contains so far 2 plugins, FileChunkReader and a custom version of ChildBrowser.
I'm very close to having what I need for my facebook dialog, the post is working successfully, which has taken me a fair amount of time as i've struggled with the facebook sdk.
When I open the dialog to post a message to the feed ( or when I call authorise in a dialog ), it shows as shown here:

I'm looking for something more like this:
Any ideas why mind is showing so... ugly?
It's very square, in a webview, with the X in the top left.
Thanks, any help is much appreciated.
The new Facebook SDK should allow you to use the built in Facebook app to do such things via intent.
In alternative you could use the Intent ACTION_SEND to achieve what you want.
The new SDK of theirs implements a way of authorizing called Single Sign-On which searches the device for the presence of the Facebook app and sends an Intent to that app which will authorize for you. If the Facebook app is not found then it will fall back to the dialog method.
You'll still be stuck with square iOS-y like design for in app sharing, invite friends, etc. The only way I can think of getting around this is to use FQL but how to do that is beyond my knowledge.
http://minus.com/mg6utFaHf is just the standard facebook Feed dialog ... see https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/feed/ ... just change www. to m. as for example https://m.facebook.com/dialog/feed?app_id=123050457758183&link=https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/dialogs/&picture=http://fbrell.com/f8.jpg&name=Facebook%20Dialogs&caption=Reference%20Documentation&description=Using%20Dialogs%20to%20interact%20with%20users.&redirect_uri=http://www.example.com/response
Said that if you want it different you have to implement UI and post data by your own by Graph api
