I am using this line of code for getting count of likes on facebook post
NSString *postId = #"1234567890_1234567890";
NSMutableDictionary* photosParams = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:postId,#"ObjectId",nil];
NSString * str = (NSString *) [[[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc] initWithGraphPath:#"/{object-id}/likes"
parameters:photosParams
HTTPMethod:#"GET"]
startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error) {
if ([error.userInfo[FBSDKGraphRequestErrorGraphErrorCode] isEqual:#200]) {
NSLog(#"%#",[error localizedDescription]);
}
}];
but I am getting error of unsupported url, any one have Idea what parameter I use to get result. I am using updated version of facebook api
As
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/object/likes
states, you need
The same permissions required to view the parent object are required to view likes on that object.
That means that the permission setting for Posts (https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.3/post) apply:
For page posts, public posts by the page are retrievable with any valid access token. Posts by people on the page, posts by people which mention the page, or targeted page posts (by language or geography, for example) may require a user or page token.
A user access token with read_stream or user_posts permission for any other posts
Are you sure you're adding an Access Token to your request?
You can request multiple posts at once like this:
/?ids={object_id1},{object_id2}&fields=id,created_time,likes.summary(true).limit(0)

I am working on messenger app, mostly by looking at the docs here
The only gotcha is how to pass the user information to the person you are sharing the content with?
From docs it seems that FBSDKMessengerURLHandlerReplyContext may contain userID
NSSet *userIds = context.userIDs
Yet, how can i use the userID to get the user information? Or is it even the right way to fetch user info?
It seems like this task is doable. This game does that
It can tell the user info in first screen, without actually asking user to login.
Any Idea or help on how to make it happen?
If the user IDs are from users that already authenticate in your app, it can be achieved using graph API, like they say on facebook Docs:
User IDs can be used with the Facebook SDK and Graph API
(https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api) to query names,
photos, and other data. This will only contain IDs of users that have
also logged into your app via their Facebook account.
Here some code on how to use the graph API with user id. You can make a call as it follows:
FBSDKGraphRequest *request = [[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc]
initWithGraphPath:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"/%#", {userID-goes-here}]
parameters:#{#"fields":#"name,id,picture,gender,birthday,email"}
HTTPMethod:#"GET"];
[request startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection,
id result,
NSError *error) {
if (!error){
NSLog(#"result: %#",result);
}
}];
the result of this request looks like this:
{
birthday = "06/24/1981";
email = "XXXXXX#hotmail.com";
gender = male;
id = 67XXXXX39;
name = "Adriano Spadoni";
picture = {
data = {
"is_silhouette" = 0;
url = "https://fbcdn-prof... ...jpg";
};
};
}
Just remember, some fields maybe be null.
You probably will need to do a loop requesting user by user I'm afraid, if someone knows how to ask a patch of users at the same time, please show us how.
BUT
If you want to get info from users that NOT installed your app yet, you need to:
FBSDKGraphRequest(graphPath: "me/taggable_friends", parameters: ["fields":"installed,id,name,picture.width(1000)"]).startWithCompletionHandler({ (connection, result, err) -> Void in
if err == nil {
print(result)
}
})
You can't get the username anymore because /me/username is no longer available.
Source: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog#v2_0_graph_api
If you want to detect returning users, use the (App Scoped) ID instead.
This is what I'm using now:
if ([FBSDKAccessToken currentAccessToken]) {
FBSDKGraphRequest *request = [[FBSDKGraphRequest alloc]
initWithGraphPath:#"/me?fields=id,name,friends{relationship_status}"
parameters:nil
HTTPMethod:#"GET"];
[request startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBSDKGraphRequestConnection *connection,
id result,
NSError *error) {
NSLog(#"Result: %#", result);
}];
}
but the result contains an empty list of friends. I guess this list contains the friends that have installed this same app.
Using the Graph Tool Explorer I can get this list
GET /v2.3/me?fields=id,name,friends{relationship_status,gender}
How can I get this list in iOS?
Permissions that I'm calling are:
loginButton.readPermissions = #[#"public_profile", #"email", #"user_friends"];
***** UPDATE *****
Ok, I've read the confirmation: "Friend list now only returns friends who also use your app: The list of friends returned via the /me/friends endpoint is now limited to the list of friends that have authorized your app."
Has anyone used taggable_friends or something like that to get the list of friends making more requests later to get the information about each and every friend? Is this something Facebook can reject when submitting the app?
That's not possible, because all friends_* permissions have been removed. Please don't waste your time trying to find a workaround.
See
https://developers.facebook.com/docs/apps/changelog#v2_0
All friends_* permissions have been removed.
I'm trying to fetch Facebook posts for a public page using the Facebook SDK for iOS. I can't seem to figure out how to get and then use the access token I need to make this request. Let's say it's the New York Times page. This shouldn't require any permissions, so I should be able to use the App Access Token...but again, I can't figure out how to get & use that.
The code I am using looks like this:
[FBRequestConnection startWithGraphPath:#"/nytimes/posts" completionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error)
{
NSLog(#"DATA: %#", [result data]);
NSLog(#"ERROR: %#", error);
}];
I keep receiving an error saying that an access token is required.
Please help!
It means it asking you a permission to access the public post in view did load method put one line code like (readPermissions = #[#"public_profile", #"email",#"user_friends",#"user_likes",#"user_groups"];)
, for more details see this https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/permissions/v2.2.
After being able to create a small iOS app that logs in to Facebook. I would like this app to get the user’s list of friends.
Though I browsed the internet for a while and tried various approach I did not succeed to get what I wanted.
In the viewDidLoad method I use this code to start with:
loginView = [[FBLoginView alloc] initWithReadPermissions:#[#"user_friends"]];
And then I implement the loginViewFetchedUserInfo: user: method this way:
- (void)loginViewFetchedUserInfo:(FBLoginView *)loginView
user:(id<FBGraphUser>)user
{
[FBRequestConnection startWithGraphPath:#"/me/friends"
parameters:nil
HTTPMethod:#"GET"
completionHandler:^(
FBRequestConnection *connection,
id result,
NSError *error
) {
NSLog(#“Result: %#",result);
}];
}
When I execute the app I get this result:
Result: {
data = (
);
summary = {
"total_count" = 267;
}; }
But what I really want is a list of the friends with their names …etc…
All the things I tried for that didn’t work. Though I suppose the solution must be simple.
I also used code like this in the method above ….. but with no luck:
NSArray* friends = [result objectForKey:#"data"];
One more point, here https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.1/user/friends one can read:
This will only return any friends who have used (via Facebook Login)
the app making the request.
But the result I get (267) does not match this statement. It (267) is the number of friends the user has on Facebook, which is in fact what I am interested in.
I hope someone has something to say to put me on the right track and make things clearer.
Since Facebook's 2.x SDK upgrade they have tightened up access to information in the "Open Graph API."
Under Permissions That Do Not Require Review
App friends. This optional permission grants your app the ability to read a list of friends who also use your app.
You get automatic access to any friends that already use your app (per its Facebook ID.)
You will have to request Extended Permissions if you want to access the list of all a user's friends. That means going through Facebook's App Review process which can be quite challenging (and annoying.)
Frankly, I am not even sure that it is possible to use the new Open Graph API to get the user's entire friend list.
I have been trying to create an event on the behalf of my page using the Facebook Graph API for iOS.
However, I always fail with the error code 403. I have tried to create an event on behalf of me - and surprisingly that works. The permissions are set appropriately as stated here.
My code goes like:
NSMutableDictionary *postParams = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] initWithObjectsAndKeys:
#"Test",#"name",
#"2012-11-11", #"start_time", nil];
[FBRequestConnection
startWithGraphPath:#"12345/events"
parameters:postParams
HTTPMethod:#"POST"
completionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection,
id result,
NSError *error) {
if (error) {
NSLog(#"Error: %#", result);
} else {
NSLog(#"Success: %#", result);
}
}];
How I said, if I set the ID/events to my user ID instead of my Page's ID, it works. Could I have set up something badly on my page? Do I need admin rights for that page?
I found something about access tokens to "Perform the following operations as a Page" here. Do I need that? If so, how do I do it?
Thanks to everyone in advance!
To authenticate as a Page (and from there, edit the events) see this document: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/authentication/pages/
In short, authenticate as user who is an an admin of the Page. Then:
https://graph.facebook.com/me/accounts?access_token=xxx
in order to retrieve the access token for the Page (and indeed for any other Pages the user administers).
Then use that access token to administer the events for the Page.
