Hi I have create an event on Facebook through my iOS app by following code
-(void) createEvent:(NSString*)eventName Eventdesc:(NSString*)eventdesc EventDate: (NSString*)eventDate{
NSURL *meurl = [NSURL URLWithString:#"https://graph.facebook.com/me/events"];
NSMutableDictionary *params = [NSMutableDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
eventName, #"name",
eventdesc, #"description",
[NSString stringWithFormat:#"%#",[NSDate date]], #"start_time",
nil];
SLRequest *merequest = [SLRequest requestForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook
requestMethod:SLRequestMethodPOST
URL:meurl
parameters:params];
merequest.account = _facebookAccount;
[merequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
NSString *meDataString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"event %#", meDataString);
if (!error) {
UIAlertView *alertView=[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"" message:#"Thanks for your support. Event has been created on your facebook page." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil,nil];
[alertView show];
}else{
UIAlertView *alertView=[[UIAlertView alloc] initWithTitle:#"" message:#"Unable to create event on facebook." delegate:nil cancelButtonTitle:#"OK" otherButtonTitles:nil,nil];
[alertView show];
}
}];
}
Now I want to invite friends to this created event. I search lot but I did not get any helpful information.

Answer 1

You can invite users to an event by issuing an HTTP POST to /EVENT_ID/invited/USER_ID. You can invite multiple users by issuing an HTTP POST to /EVENT_ID/invited?users=USER_ID1,USER_ID2,USER_ID3. Both of these require the create_event permission and return true if the invite is successful.

Solving the problem by using follwing code
pragma mark- Invite Friends Method
-(void)inviteFriendsToEvent:(NSString*)eventID UserID:(NSMutableArray*)userID{
NSLog(#"ID=%#",[_IDArray lastObject]);
NSLog(#"Event ID:%#",_eventID);
NSData *data = [_eventID dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
id json = [NSJSONSerialization JSONObjectWithData:data options:0 error:nil];
NSLog(#"Event ID:%#",[json objectForKey:#"id"]);
NSURL *meurl = [NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:#"https://graph.facebook.com/%#/invited/%#",[json objectForKey:#"id"],[_IDArray lastObject]]];
//#"https://graph.facebook.com/EVENT_ID/invited?users=USER_ID1,USER_ID2,USER_ID3"
SLRequest *merequest = [SLRequest requestForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook
requestMethod:SLRequestMethodPOST
URL:meurl
parameters:nil];
merequest.account = _facebookAccount;
[merequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
NSString *meDataString = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];
NSLog(#"Data=%#",meDataString);
}];
}
