Name = fields
Valid values = CSV of valid fields(keys)
Link: http://graph.facebook.com/saggar?fields=name,link{
"name": "Suresh Saggar",
"link": "http://www.facebook.com/saggar",
"id": "1050172324"
}
If an invalid field name is specified then an OAuthException will be thrown.
{
"error": {
"type": "Exception",
"message": "Unknown fields: invalidfield"
}
}
Name = ids
Valid values = CSV of valid IDs. Used to request multiple objects in a single query
Link: http://graph.facebook.com/?ids=saggar {
"saggar": {
"id": "1050172324",
"name": "Suresh Saggar",
"first_name": "Suresh",
"last_name": "Saggar",
"link": "http://www.facebook.com/saggar",
"username": "saggar",
"gender": "male",
"locale": "en_US"
}
}
· Duplicate IDs of same type (here username) if specified will throw an OAuthException, although not a meaningful one.
{
"error": {
"type": "OAuthException",
"message": "(#803) Some of the aliases you requested do not exist: " //<<<< alias missing
}
}
This is a bug in Facebook's code as the message doesn't contain the alias.
· Duplicate IDs of mixed type (here username, id) if specified will throw a meaningful OAuthException.
{
"saggar": {
"id": "1050172324",
"name": "Suresh Saggar",
"first_name": "Suresh",
"last_name": "Saggar",
"link": "http://www.facebook.com/saggar",
"username": "saggar",
"gender": "male",
"locale": "en_US"
}
}
· Besides, a special identifier 'me', which refers to the current user can be used to identify the user who is logged in. So this (https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=validAccessToken) will return the active user's profile.
Link: https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=validAccessToken&fields=quotes,name,timezone
{
"quotes": "\"Be Good, Do Good, Be One\".\r\n\r\n\"What one man can do so can another\".",
"name": "Suresh Saggar",
"timezone": 5.5,
"id": "1050172324"
}
But this (https://graph.facebook.com/me) even if you are logged in will report an OAuthException. {
"error": {
"type": "OAuthException",
"message": "An active access token must be used to query information about the current user."
}
}
Hi, Plz can you tell me how can i get current user id,name etc(i.e. the user who has logged into facebook and is on my app now)
