Where do I find API key and API secret for Facebook?

Question

Trying to connect to Facebook to make a statusupdate through my Android application. Got the whole thing running but I need API key + secret. Where can I create/get a hold of these?

private static final String apiKey = "<YOUR API KEY>";
private static final String apiSecret = "<YOUR SECRET KEY>";

Tried the same thing with Twitter and then I just "created" an application and recieved "ConsumerKEY" and "ConsumerSECRET", but what is the deal with Facebook?

Answer 1

You have to log on to facebook (with any valid account), go to Account -> Application settings -> Developer -> Set up new application (button at the top right). After creating application you will see the key and secret at application settings page.

Answer 2

Nowaday, facebook developers page and creating API process was changed. now you must to open developers.facebook.com/apps . If you have registrated as a facebook developer you will see in top of the right create new app, otherwise you have to do registration. After than create a app. I use the site as a helper and the url helpful too, but the site is a few older.

Here is docs you can get all information about creating new app.

Answer 3

You'll need to create an application at http://www.facebook.com/developers/. This will give you an API key and secret specific to your app.
