View 1 RepliesI'm making an air-application in flash professional using actionscript. I was wondering if any of you know how (or if it's even possible) to use facebook to log in to my application. I found some stuff on the web, but I only found stuff to HTML, not actionscript.
View 1 RepliesI'm currently building an application using the Adobe Facebook API and I've run into an issue where for the login method the Facebook login popup displays but when doing a Facebook share/post the popup is blocked.
This code works fine and displays me a Facebook login popup without question (Firefox):
var permissions:Array = ['publish_stream'];
Facebook.login( onFacebookLogin, { perms:permissions.join(',') } );
However, the following code running in the same application throws up a popup blocker (again Firefox):
Facebook.ui( "stream.publish", "popup", params );
Does anyone know of a work around this issue to make the share popup come up just like the login popup?
I have literally spent HOURS trying to solve this mystery... but simply can't seem to get hold of it.
I am using the same code lines (literally!) as the example here (official adobe tutorial) and I get different result.
[Code]...
Everything works fine, i.e. everything till it is time to fire the loggedin event. I get asked to log in and all permissions are asked correctly. After I log myself in to facebook, the loggedin event doesn't fire. Is there any way of solving this problem??
I have been trying to develop flash based facebook apps. After reading a bit on methods (there are many) I went with zerofractals bridge component ... basically an external interface wrapper that manages calls to the javascript api. Well, its been frustrating for me... some calls go off into limbo and generate no result event.. it hangs on various calls, never on the same one... im just over it. So now i need to decide what to try next.
I have had a hard time finding good flash/facebook documentation. I would love to see a good working example. As it stands, in addition to the above api frustration, my app chooses not to ask the user for permission the first time they come and doesn't load at all. They have to hit refresh. Lots of little **** like this is bugging me.
Does anyone here have experience with this? I need something that is reliable. I was hesitant to use the adobe library because you have to compile your api key and secret in it. Now im thinking about giving it another look, I can always bring those strings at runtime in from a protected place I guess.
I have a really strange problem with calling window facebook login from Flash. On my private server facebook api works like a charm, but in my company, where we use very advanced application in flash and windows server the facebook login doesn't work..
I setup the HTML file correctly, I initialized Facebook.init(.. ..) and I call Facebook.login(.. ..) after clicking a button, but nothing happens, totally nothing, zero reaction.. Because Flash right now doesn't give me any errors...
I have checked the connections, and this is my [URL] and it is connecting very well and I can see in debugging proxy that there are connections in facebook. BUT, at my work in [URL] nothing happens, no responses, and connection in flash is the same like in my labs....
I have a facebook application where the user choose 4 of his friends and then it creates a video (swf) with the pictures of your friends in it (loaded via xml). So I need to share this video on the user timeline. Everything works fine but the video is not embedded in the post on his timeline, there is only a post with the link to the page in it.The weird thing is, if I post the url directly on my timeline, the video is embedded, but not if the same link is posted via the application.here is my code called by the share button in js :
function postToFeed() {
var obj = {
method: 'feed',[code].........
I'm developping a flash photo gallery with deeplink and i would like to enable the user to share the photos on their facebook wall. I tryied to find some tutorials explaining how to achieve that but unfortunatly I had no luck. The ones I found don't enable me to customize the wall post (these fields: title, description, url and image)

I am trying to build my first flash facebook app, using the "flash facebook cookbook". Its instructions are all for flash builder and I am using flash pro. I've downloaded the flash facebook graph apk, and connected the swc, but when I try to login I need to return a FacebookSession object and I keep getting an error message that it can't find the class.
I import the:
import com.facebook.graph.Facebook;
But it's as if the swc connection didn't work.
I have a SWF file that calls some javascript which shows the facebook login dialog via the javascript sdk.this all works fine, except for that fact that pop-up blockers block the login dialog, as it isnt invoked from a user action, but from flash.
View 1 RepliesAnyone know if you can connect, login, post an image to a Facebook account directly from inside of Flash? I grabbed the Facebook API for AS3 and have it installed, created an application definition on Facebook but am having no look connecting to it? I have seen some refereneces to it only working inside of Flex and am wondering it that's the case. I am looking to do a kiosk application where a camera image will be uploaded directly to the persons FB page.

View 1 RepliesAnyone know what tool does facebook use for uploading multiple photos? It is so neat!
It look like they are using flash uploader? If so, which one out there has similar to that?
I want to create a Flash application but I do not want to pay the $700 for Flash Professional CS5 (neither to pirate it). I have been looking at previous questions here in SO and around the net for hints of free software allowing to develop flash apps.
From my current research, it seems the tools I need are:
1. FlashDevelop or similar to create and compile ActionScript code.
2. Pencil, Synfig or similar to create animation (is it possible to export to fla?
3. ?? to put everything together and compile a swf file.
My question is whether anyone has successfully followed a similar path to build a flash application using only open source. And better yet, any good web site with documentation on how to tackle such a task. I have looked at the Open Source Flash Projects page which contains a comprehensive list of flash related open-source projects and libraries...

I have heard about Flash Builder 4.5.1.As I have understood, one can make an application using Flex with the Flash Builder 4.5.1 and also exported the release build for iOS, Android and Blackberry.
What are the limitations of Flash Builder for developing the mobile applications? What are the things which can't do with this IDE? Is bluetooth, one of the thing?

There are some way to log users from my swf?possible solution I can think of: login via PHP, and pass via FlashVars the session ID obteined by PHP, then start a session inside my SWF movie.
View 3 RepliesI'm trying to implement the 1.6 Mobile Facebook API [URL]into an Air for Android application. I've succesfully used the Web and Desktop API's however with the mobile app it's expecting an extra parameter to a stageReference, see:
login(callback:Function, stageRef:Stage, extendedPermissions:Array, webView:StageWebView = null)
But, using i'm using Flex and not Flash CS5, i can't just pass in this.stage or this or anything like that.What exactly would you guys think I need to pass into that using Flash builder Flex? I can't seem to find any examples for the mobile actionscript API ?
Here's the login information from the Mobile API Docs:
login () method
public static function login(callback:Function, stageRef:Stage, extendedPermissions:Array, webView:StageWebView = null):void
Opens a new login window so the current user can log in to Facebook.
Parameters
callback:Function — The method to call when login is successful. The handler must have the signature of callback(success:Object, fail:Object); Success will be a FacebookSession if successful, or null if not.
stageRef:Stage — A reference to the stageextendedPermissions:Array — (Optional) Array of extended permissions to ask the user for once they are logged in.webView:StageWebView (default = null) — (Optional) The instance of StageWebView to use for the login window For the most current list of extended permissions[URL].
All I want is to have the latest 3 or so posts from my clients Facebook page to populate and animate in a screensaver that I am building using Flash (AS3).
So far, every time I try to bring anything in, it requires a complete oAuth login and account link, but it's only a one way exchange (read-only, absolutely no writing, posting or even linking, since it's a screensaver) I'm not even sure the client wants pictures or anything.
I am currently trying to use the facebook-actionscript-api, but there isn't an option for the "App Login" type of Authentication that would solve most of my problems.
I've come up with a flash game and wish to deploy it on facebook. Problem is, I am not sure where to start!
I've done some research and found out something about needing an external server to host my flash application but I'm still pretty much lost.
So can anyone tell me what are the basic steps to deploying my flash application to facebook?
