I've successfully implemented Facebook Connect (using Javascript SDK) on my site and now would like to have a message appear on the user's wall showing they have started using application X.
For example RockMelt shows such a thing as in the below picture:
Is this a simple permission I need to request for? I've tried public_stream but doesn't seem to do anything.
these are auto-generated by facebook for fb apps that have the social-discovery option enabled. u can find that settings in your dev app.

So I'm building a Phonegap app and I need to access Youtube's Data API. I managed to access the simple API (The one that requires an API key) yet I'm having trouble connecting with OAuth.
I did everything the walkthrough guides told me to do, I have generated a Client ID for Web application from https://console.developers.google.com.
I'm using the auth.js file from their example at the google developers website
The main issue is that every time I try to log in, I get this error:
Refused to display
'https://accounts.google.com/o/oauth2/auth?client_id=' in
a frame because it set 'X-Frame-Options' to 'SAMEORIGIN'.
I tried clearing my cookies but to no avail.
I run this on localhost with Visual Studio, maybe this has something to do with that?
Ok, so after spending some time on it I finally figured out what the problem was.
On https://console.developers.google.com when I created my OAuth 2.0 client ID there was the "Authorized JavaScript origins" field which I left blank. Since I was running it from my localhost, I added http://localhost:28299 to the list of safe origins and everything worked fine.
Of course this is just for the development phase.
I am developing a windows 8.1 app using javascript and html5. I want to integrate facebook login.When I searched I found the following documentations
1.https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/login-for-windows-phone
2.https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/login-flow-for-web/v2.3
which one should I use.
I suggest you go through the first link since it mentions how to integrate facebook SDK in windows phone. The other link mentions about Facebook integration through javascript in web.
I tried the first one, I used js function in wp8
Windows.System.Launcher.launchUriAsync("fbconnect://authorize?cliend_id=My_appId&scope=basic_info&redirect_uri=msft-my_prod_id://authorize").then(function (success){
})
It works for me, If I'm already logged with facebook app, it return true, else it show me Facebook Login Page. But I don't obtain Facebook userId, i'm able only to intercept boolean value for success or not. Did you get a solution for login and obtain Facebook userId?
I found the Winjs sdk for Facebook
https://github.com/Thuzi/facebook-winjs-sdk
it works for me.
For windows phone you need to use
Windows.Security.Authentication.Web.WebAuthenticationBroker.authenticateAndContinue instead of Windows.Security.Authentication.Web.WebAuthenticationBroker.authenticateAsync during the login
When posting a link to our web site to someones Facebook wall, the ink file picker stops working when the person uses the Facebook IOS application.
The file picker comes up and works normally, but as soon as you try to submit the image, the error in the attached screenshot appears below appears.
The text is cut off but it is something like "...results to application. Communication iframe...".
All works fine in the android FB application which clearly opens links in an external browser. But with the FB IOS, our web site seems to render inside the FB app through some sort of deep linking magic. It seems clear that this is some sort of cross domain issue that has been recently introduced by changes at FB.
Has anyone come across this? Any workarounds?
This question may be related to this one here:
Opening Up Facebook app outside Facebook
Full message is "Cannot send results to the application. Communication iframe not found.. Please close this window and try again." (should be responsive)
Filepicker isn't able to communicate when it is run inside FB IOS app. A solution might be to force it to display filepicker in the browser.
I am willing to fiddle with Evernote API and use it Chrome/FF extensions. What I learnt that so far no JS API available which makes me to think to make a middle tier service in php/python and let my extension to access Evernote via that service.
The place where I am confused is authentication. How do I make a user to authenticate with Evernote from a browser extension? If it;s showing a html static page which then redirects to EverNote Login Page and store access token etc at server side. How will my extension remember logged In details and make calls to service and create/retrieve notes in my Chrome extension.
The workflow of App is following:
User will be able to login on Evernote via Extension(by accessing page of Logging).
After successful logging notes will be retrieved via middle tier service in Chrome Extension via Ajax Request.
USer can then post note via AJAX call to service which will then eventually store in Evernote via its API
Please guide me.
There are no official javascript API. But you can find a few un-official ones.
Take a look here for example : http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/22476-api-for-javascript/
Don't know how they work however.
Here's another solution :
Not sure it's the right way to do it but you could mimic the way the evernote webclipper works.
Basically it uses a internal customerKey / customerSecret along with the username and password to retrieve an oauthToken. Then it uses this OauthToken for all api calls.
You can find the process in the Auth.js file of the webclipper source code.
On a mac, the file is located in /Users/%user%/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions/pioclpoplcdbaefihamjohnefbikjilc/5.9.5_0/js/main/Auth.js
I don't know on other systems but it shoudn't be too difficult to find on Google.
Hope that helps.
Now you can find an official JavaScript library. (I'm not sure limitations of Chrome extension though)
https://github.com/evernote/evernote-sdk-js
I find it here.
http://discussion.evernote.com/topic/34619-how-to-access-evernote-api-in-firefoxchrome-extensions/#entry250743
The FAQ of the library says that
Can I test my code in the browser
Yes. You can test your code in Chrome. Open Chrome using open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/ --args --disable-web-security .
I'm building a website and a simple app for android and iOS with sencha and I want it to connect to facebook and post something.
I've read the information and tried to implement Facebook Javascript SDK.
It works on the website, when I tap a button the facebook login poped out, asking me to login and authorize the facebook app I created. after I authorize it and got an access token, I can post something to timeline from the web.
However, when I tried to pack it into .apk and install it on my android device it didn't work.
Is it possible to use Facebook Javascript SDK with sencha touch after I pack it to .apk ? or should I be use another method ?
I'm hoping that anybody could help me with that, and an example would be nice.
Thanks in advance.
Write a handler in sencha to call your site's oAuth service for authentication...
Use this authentication for your mobile app... I dont think the issue was due to .apk did you try the same thing in a mobile browser and see if it worked???
