I am developing an iPhone application that allows the uploading of videos to Facebook. I would like to allow the user to tag his/her friends in the video uploaded. How can I achieve this programmatically? I have gone through the Facebook API documentation. There are APIs to add tags to photos, upload videos. But, the API for tagging friends for videos is not mentioned anywhere.
Your tag may need to be approved by the person you tagged or the person who posted the photo (if it is not yours), depending on their privacy settings for Timeline Review or tag review. You may not see the option to tag people in photos posted by others, depending on their audience settings.
In the message portion of the API call, you can add the @user to the message to tag specific users. I'd pop a dialog of the users and allow them to "tag" users, then you can populate the end of the message with @John Doe, @Jane Smith etc.
