Android Facebook SDK How To Update Notification - android

I am trying to update a notification via the Facebook ADK. The documentation says this:
"You can mark a notification as read by issuing an HTTP POST request to /NOTIFICATION_ID?unread=0 with the manage_notifications permission."
I know how to read the notifications with the graph path "me/notifications", but I am unsure of the code to do a POST to mark a notification as being read.
Facebook facebook = ......."Authorized Facebook Object"
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString(Facebook.TOKEN, accessToken);
...
How do I add in the "/NOTIFICATION_ID?unread=0" parameters?
...
String result = facebook.request("me/notifications", parameters, "POST");
Thanks.

Ok...I figured this one out:
Facebook facebook = ...
String unreadParameter = "0";
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString(Facebook.TOKEN, accessToken);
parameters.putString("unread", unreadParameter);
String result = facebook.request(notificationID, parameters, "POST");
The Graph Path needs to only be the "NOTIFICATION_ID" and nothing else...I was putting in "me/notifications/NOTIFICATION_ID" and other variations.
I hope that others find this helpful.

How to share on facebook using graph api in android

I want to share a link in my application.I didnt find any api for sharing link in graph api.
What is the difference between sharing and posting in facebook?How can I perform sharing ?
Thanks in advance
You can post to wall on facebook using this code:
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("message","YOUR_MESSAGE");
parameters.putString("link", "ANY_LINK");
String response = facebook.request("me/feed", parameters,
"POST");
Also to upload an image, you can use this code:
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("message","YOUR_MESSAGE");
parameters.putString("caption","ANY_CAPTION");
parameters.putByteArray("picture", "IMAGE_LINK");
String response = facebook.request("me/photos", parameters,
"POST");
Hope it will help you.

Facebook SDK post with BOTH place AND picture

I'm using Facebook's latest SDK for Android.
Is it possible to post a status with BOTH place AND picture?
My bundle looks like this:
Bundle postParams = new Bundle();
postParams.putString("message", "Hi there!!");
postParams.putString("picture", "http://www.peleozen.net/pics/2_bus_face_logo.jpg");
postParams.putString("place", "204519339582365");
When I make the request, it results in a status with only the picture.
Making the request without a picture results in a checkin
So...is it possible to do both?
You can post to the /me/photos endpoint, so in a sense you're posting a photo, adding a location to it and the caption is the message. So as an example, if using the latest SDK, you could take a look at the HelloFacebookSample and make the following changes to the postPhoto method to try this out:
....
Bundle params = request.getParameters();
params.putString("message", "Hi there!!");
params.putString("place", "166793820034304");
request.setParameters(params);
Request.executeBatchAsync(request);
....
For reference, see: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/api/user/#photos

Facebook API 3.0. - Add bundle information to image upload

I'm using FB API 3.0 for Android, and according to examples for Session I use
Request request = Request.newUploadPhotoRequest(Session.getActiveSession(), image, new Request.Callback();
to upload the image.
I need to add some default text to this image, but I can't figure out where to put it.
In old API there was a bundle of parameters that were sent:
params.putByteArray("picture", imgData);
params.putString(Facebook.TOKEN, accessToken);
params.putString("caption", MyGlobals.INSTANCE.activeSetting.f_name);
What is the proper way to add text to Request for newUploadPhotoRequest?
tnx.
After you create the request and before you execute it, you can do the following:
// Get the current parameters for the request
Bundle params = request.getParameters();
// Add the parameters you want, the caption in this case
params.putString("name", "My Caption String");
// Update the request parameters
request.setParameters(params);
// Execute the request
Request.executeBatchAsync(request);
With the above solution we are unable to add description to image.
Solution:
replace name with message Because:
params.putString("name", "My Caption String");
putString first parameter is key for My caption String that key is unique one that unique was taken as message.

Send a picture to Facebook using Graph API on Android

I have been searching for this all day and just when I find something, I find it is not what I am looking for. In short, I am upgrading my app to use the Facebook graph API for Android and the documentation is horrible. All I want is to upload a picture into the default album for the app. I have the following code:
Facebook f = new Facebook(APP_ID);
Bundle parameters = new Bundle();
parameters.putString("message", caption);
parameters.putByteArray("picture", data);
f.dialog(mContext, "publish.stream", parameters, this); //TODO: This is wrong
I think the publish.stream is what is the problem because the exception that I got when I did my "this doesn't have a prayer" test was a malformedURLException.
Can someone tell me if I am even on the right track?
Thanks,
Jake
