In my blackberry app, it shares news through a facebook sharing url on browserfield.
If I check it on my facebook, It has successfully shared.
I want to know How I can get the HTTP response code from the browser field, and also How to close the browserfield after sharing the news.
Please Help.
Have you thought about using a HttpConnection to access the URL, instead of using a BrowserField? The method 'getResponseCode()' on HttpConnection will return what you want.

I have an authorisation flow that at the end redirects to our API endpoint not to the app universal link like https://api.example.com/redirect not the app://redirect
For now I am able to use WKWebView to detect that redirect was done by comparing urls and if match to close WebView.
The problem is that in this approach I cannot use google login (WebView is rejected) during this flow.
I tried to use ASWebAuthenticationSession but after redirect I am not able to detect that this redirect was done (as it hits API not the app) to close AuthenticationSession view automatically.
Is it possible at all in such case or the only way to close AS is to redirect to app universal link app:// not to the https://?
Any help really appreciated
You need to use the ASWebAuthenticationSession window with the AppAuth pattern, as described in RFC8252. This is a form of the system browser so will not be blocked by providers such as Sign in with Google.
This form of login can be used with either custom URI schemes, such as com.mycompany.myapp:/callback or with HTTPS callback URIs that require iOS universal links to be configured. You are then notified when login conpletes, or is cancelled, or fails.
A sample app of mine does logins with universal links via this code, which adapts AppAuth classes to more of a [Swift async await style. If you are new to AppAuth libraries, see also my introductory blog post.
func login(viewController: UIViewController) async throws {
try await self.authenticator.getMetadata()
try await MainActor.run {
try self.authenticator.startLoginRedirect(viewController: viewController)
}
let response = try await self.authenticator.handleLoginResponse()
try await self.authenticator.finishLogin(authResponse: response)
}
I have videos embedded on a protected website via the old API.
I want to switch to the new API. All I need is an embed-code for a PRIVATE video.
Normally I would call: http://www.dailymotion.com/services/oembed?url=
But this does not work for a private video.
I already have a mapping-table for the old video-IDs to the new URLs.
I also have an API-Key and API-Secret.
Is there some example code on how to get the embed-URL for a private video via the API with PHP-SDK?
Thanks for help.
To request the embed url you can request the embed_url field from the api https://developer.dailymotion.com/api#video-embed_url-field
In php, the call is:
$api->get(
'/video/<videoID>',
array('fields' => array('embed_url'))
);
If your video is private, you'll have to use authentication (https://developer.dailymotion.com/api#authentication) to be able to access embed url information. This section https://developer.dailymotion.com/tools/sdks#sdk-php-authentication will shows you how to do this in php.
I am able to access a user picture in a web browser without providing an access token, using the url:
http://graph.facebook.com/ID/picture
I know it performs a redirection, but it works.
However, when trying to access the same url in an iOS HttpRequest, I get an "invalid_token" response.
Is it possible to get a picture from an ID, in iOS without a token? If so, how do I achieve this? If not, how is it possible using the web browser?
Thanks!
In case anyone else is stuck with this, apparently under some conditions you get an "invalid token" response from the facebook (graph api) if you use a POST and not a GET http request method. Switching to GET solved the problem for me.
I am trying to implement a SoundCloud app for blackberry phones using webworks frame work.
I am using OAuth2 scheme for authorization. So far I am able to display the SoundCloud log-in page from where the user can allow the app. But the problem occurs during the redirect which is essentially done by SoundCloud. The redirect page which is being pointed to by the call back URI is residing in my device, but after the user approves the app I get a page saying "something went wrong". However when I try to bounce the redirect from a third server, it just works fine. In this case I specify the callback URL pointing to a page on a website which only forwards the request to the page which is residing on my device. But the problem is that I do not want to use this "bounce server"
Could you please look into the code and advise if I am doing something wrong.
/**
* Authenticates the app against soundcloud
* This javascript method is called in the index.htm of my application.
*/
authenticate : function(){
var url = "https://soundcloud.com/connect?" + "scope=nonexpiring&client_id=MY_CLIENT_ID&" +
"response_type=code&redirect_uri=local:///testpage.htm";
window.location = url;
;
/************************************/
testpage.htm only displays "hello sound cloud".
Any help in this regard shall be highly appreciated.
The value for the redirect_uri parameter must match the value of the "Redirect URI" on the app edit page.
Example: https://img.skitch.com/20120411-q6yqada29tcadnep15jc6q75a1.jpg

The problem is the triple slash part in your redirect_uri. Although, it is a valid URI according to the RFC 3986, the Ruby URI library behaves a bit strange when parsing such values. We're working on a fix.
In the meantime, could you try to use local:/testpage.htm?
I added to my iOS application option to detect and response to custom URL schemes to launch application ( http://iosdevelopertips.com/cocoa/launching-your-own-application-via-a-custom-url-scheme.html ).
Link is working perfectly on different sites (using href), but I'm having problem with Facebook. If I'm trying to post link (using Graph API) which looks like:
myapp://blabla
Facebook return error:
The url you supplied is invalid
And for feed with link return
link URL is not properly formatted.
I can't just post url as a message because it's not being detected as a URL and appear like text only.
Is there any way to post to Facebook wall with custom links?
Edit:
I have an idea, but I don't know if it gonna work. Putting
myapp://blabla directly into address field in mobile browser is launching application so probably accessing an webpage (like http://www.mywebpage/myapp) with only redirection to
myapp://blabla gonna work too, but is Facebook gonna accept that link?
I think your suggestion in the edit is the correct method, and should work. However applications like spotify seem to use an intersticial page which fires the "app link" with javascript, the advantage to this approach is that you can use that page to "sell" the app to users who don't have it and also provide lovely open graph tags for people who want to share it.
