View 2 RepliesI have a facebook canvas app (flash).
I have a user who is visiting the app.
I have a button that the user clicks for the purpose of inviting a friend to the app.I understand that this can be done via the js sdk: http[url].....However I am already using the facebook_as3_api, and I would prefer to avoid using multiple facebook api's. Does the facebook_as3_api have a way of doing this, and if not, why not?
I'm asking this question because I can only find examples and answers for the PHP version. I need the Flash version. I'm trying to get my friends information, but I think I'm doing it wrong because if I trace it, it'll give me either [object Object] or undefined.
I did Facebook.api("me/friends", handleApiGet);
private function handleGetApi(success:Object, fail:Object):void
{
if (success)
{
[Code]....
ExternalInterface.call("doAlert", success) returns me [object Object], [object Object]. I also did ExternalInterface.call("doAlert", success.name), it returns me undefined.
How to let the user tag a Facebook friend for status wall post through the application(using AS3 SDK)
View 1 RepliesThere are some question on the StackOverflow about facebook & email, but after reading them I still have a problem with retrieving users emails.
Our app implemented on Flex and uses REST API. And previously it used notifications.sendEmail. App has publish_stream and email permissions (checked with users.hasAppPermission).
I tried users.getInfo for get proxied_email address. But this function does not return email address of the friend.. Then I performed the following test using Graph API and web browser: Opened the following link for authorization with extended permissions:

View 1 RepliesI'm building an AIR desktop app with facebook support using Adobe Flash builder. So far it's working alright, except for one detail, once a user logs in, that session stays open, even if the logout button is pressed. My logout code look like so:
protected function logout():void {
FacebookDesktop.logout(handleLogout, APP_ORIGIN);
}
I set APP_ORIGIN to "[URL]". I checked Adobe's documentation and they say: appOrigin:String (default = null) ” (Optional) The site url specified for your app. Required for clearing html window cookie. But I don't know what that means, what is the 'site url specified by my app'? Where do I get it? Sorry if this is a noob question.
Lately I've been studying (or at least I've been trying to) the facebook api for flash. But I can not find good material or code examples. I've been reading this [URL] but there I can't find what I need. I just need to make possible for new users to loggin into my game (it's a MMO - sfs 2 + as3) with their facebook accont. Anyway the problem is that with this documentation I can't find not even how to get the user name properly. I'm completely lost and don't know what to do.

Is there a way for a Flash Facebook app in an iFrame to detect if the user is a fan of the page using the Graph API for Actionscript 3? If not can I achieve the same goal using Javascript? without asking the user for permission (no access token required).
View 2 RepliesI'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)
View 2 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?
im building a little flash website for a friend, struggling my way through. Its quite a steep learning curve as this is my first bit of flash work.Heres the problem, i built the part below, added buttons that should scroll through a series of pictures when clicked (which will be replaced with pages later).
The buttons work, and when pressed for the first time they select the right page. However pressing the buttons in a certain order seems to mess things up.
If i press page 1, page 2, page 3 then press page 2 again, page 1 is displayed
i am trying to write a facebook app using as3 and the facebook-actionscipt graph api library i am having trouble getting a user's friends list, while i have no problem getting a user's other data (favorite movies, for example)
[code]...
ok after doing some more searching i find that getting friends-of-friends with any api is impossible this is very interesting - you can access friends-of-friends manually as a facebook user, but not automaticallythis means it is not a privacy issue at all - it is something Facebook wants to keep for itself only - for the "People You May Know" section in the facebook page
I wasn't quite sure where to put this. I created a banner for a friend in flash using actionscript 2 and the getURL command. When I go to embed it in HTML, the movie shows up and when you hover over it, it appears to link but when clicked it does not link. When I go directly to the .swf file it links, but not when I embed it. Is there anything special I have to add to my HTML to make the link work?
View 2 RepliesI'm starting a facebook app using iframe method.I am using flex and so far I am able to connect to fb (login and out). Now I am trying to retrieve current logged in user name. In the document I see this function is what I need. Facebook.getSession().A tutorial in adobe site uses desktop api and it works for desktop (AIR app) but not for web app. (yes, i fixed Facebook.getSession() instead of FacebookDesktop.getSession(); Also, I am able to see the uid but not the user. User returns null. uid is a string and user is an object. But on the desktop app,FacebookDesktop.getSession().user.name returns the name perfectly. but on the web, it does not.
View 2 RepliesAll 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 a flash facebook application, i can take the session info from flash client and send the session information to server.
I need to check if the user connected to the server via facebook application or not. That's why i need to get the user's session from facebook page directly by my server.
How can i do it? I use C# for all database and communication system. Flash interface does only application responsibilities.
I can't set a picture as a user-created page wallpaper and i also cant "like" this same page using a Facebook Desktop Graph API request.how to use the Facebook Graph API for AS3 to change the wallpaper on a user created page and also set the "like" status for that page of a user? Is this even possible?
View 1 RepliesI'm trying to determine the practical difference between using the com.facebook.session.WebSession and com.facebook.session.JSSession. The documentation ([URL]) has more around WebSession - but the example I have which is closest to what solution I'm trying to implement uses JSSession and it looks like I could avoid all of the JavaScript pass-through & ExternalInterface calls I'm making. It appears that the benefit of using this new ActionScript Facebook API is to avoid having to make all of the Facebook calls via JavaScript.

View 1 RepliesI 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've recently used the 'Static HTML' application to add autoplaying flash content to a Facebook Page.Nothing too fancy, no sound, and only a few secs long. Now, Facebook say:-"Apps on Pages must not host media that plays automatically without a user's interaction."
What do they mean by 'Media' exactly? I can understand a ban on autoplaying audio content but does the ban extend to something as harmless as an animated GIF? Or more to the point, does an autoplaying .swf file fall under this?
Lastly, what course of action would Facebook take if I did violate this rule? Would they issue a warning (giving me an opportunity to remove the 'offending' item) or would they just shut down my page without any consultation?
I'm using the the Adobe ActionScript 3 SDK for Facebook Platform to get all the tagged photos of the current user. Is this possible?
I've tried this:

View 1 RepliesI have a Send to a Friend form I modified from lewip's awesome xml newsreader slideshow. [URL] I have everything in the text inputs being passed correctly, but I would also like the email sent to contain a small amount of text, that the user does not input, to explain why the recipient has just received the email. If anyone can point me in the right direction, that would be awesome.
View 3 RepliesI 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.

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 may be mistaken, but it appears that Facebook only supports friend-selector dialogs within a request/invite form. I take that to mean that since our app is just allowing the user to arrange a subset of friends for display within the app (no message to the friend), we must use something that isn't available from Facebook. It would be nice to know if I'm wrong, but important to have some clear pointers on how to get a friend ID back from the dialog without an invite or request getting sent to the friend.
I've searched for solutions and the closest I've come is a description of something that implements what I want offered for license by Mike Knoop. I've tried making contact, but still don't know whether the code (or license terms) will work. It would be really nice to have a solution that was more open, but any pointers to widgets/libraries that include this capability
