I want to ask the user of my android app the permission to publish on facebook when a custom share button (it's just an ImageView) is pressed. On button's OnClick
method I execute this block:
CallbackManager facebookCallbackManager;
...
facebookCallbackManager = CallbackManager.Factory.create();
LoginManager.getInstance().registerCallback(facebookCallbackManager, new FacebookCallback<LoginResult>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(LoginResult loginResult) {
shareContent(activity, content, true);
}
@Override
public void onCancel() { }
@Override
public void onError(FacebookException error) { }
});
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithPublishPermissions(activity, Collections.singletonList("publish_actions"));
And then I override:
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
facebookCallbackManager.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
}
The problem is that the request never comes: an everlasting spinner wheel is presented and no callback (nor success, nor cancel, nor error) is called.
a. The user is already logged in, according to:
public static boolean isLoggedIn() {
AccessToken accessToken = AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken();
return accessToken != null;
}
b. FacebookSdk.isInitialized()
is true
c. Publish permissions are not granted, according to:
private static boolean hasPublishPermissions() {
AccessToken accessToken = AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken();
return accessToken != null && accessToken.getPermissions().contains("publish_actions");
}
d. Other uses of FB SDK are used through the app and they are functioning.
e. I am an app admin on FB dashboard
Any idea on the problem?
Important PS:
Since Facebook's API is extremely stable, depending on the time of the day or the position of the stars, without changing code I have three possible outcomes:
As described before, an everlasting spinner wheel.
The callback fires the onCancel
method without the user interaction.
It shares the content without asking for confirmation - this gave me a nice unwanted video posted on my personal FB, without me noticing :) -
PS2:
Even the classic LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithReadPermission
now is having the same issue. It never had it before.
then you can share content without everlasting spinner
LoginManager.getInstance().registerCallback(mCallbackManagerFacebook, new FacebookCallback<LoginResult>() {
@Override
public void onSuccess(LoginResult loginResult) {
System.out.println("Success");
if (loginResult.getRecentlyGrantedPermissions().contains("publish_actions")) {
new shareContent(activity, content, true);
} else {
//Toast.makeText(youractivity.this, "Successfully Connected to Facebook.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
GetFacebookPublishPermissions();
}
}
@Override
public void onCancel() {
//Log.d(TAG_CANCEL, "On cancel");
LoginManager.getInstance().logOut();
}
@Override
public void onError(FacebookException error) {
Toast.makeText(youractivity.this, "Looks like we are unable to connect to Facebook Servers.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
LoginManager.getInstance().logOut();
// Log.d(TAG_ERROR, error.toString());
}
});
and getFacebookSharepermission
public void GetFacebookPublishPermissions(){
if(LoginManager.getInstance()!=null)
{
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithPublishPermissions(youractivity.this, Arrays.asList("publish_actions"));
}
}
Update
you can call this function like below
AccessToken token = com.facebook.AccessToken.getCurrentAccessToken();
if(token!=null)
{
if (token.getPermissions().contains("publish_actions")) {
new shareContent(activity, content, true);
}else{
GetFacebookPublishPermissions();
}
}else{
LoginManager.getInstance().logInWithReadPermissions(this,
Arrays.asList("public_profile", "email", "user_birthday"));
}
