I am still not able to get person's data from person id.

Sample Code: function getData() { var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); req.add(req.newFetchPersonRequest('4041920253253596426','*'), 'person'); req.send(fetchPersonHandler); }

function fetchPersonHandler(resp) {
if (!resp.hadError()) { 
var person = resp.get('person').getData(); 
alert(person.getDisplayName());
}
else
{
alert(resp.hadError());
}

This code returns, hadErrror = true ErrorCode = 500 ErrorMessage = Unexpected error

From api.kurrik%google.com@gtempaccount.com on August 27, 2008 21:02:58 The sample you provided is invalid. The second parameter of newFetchPersonRequest should be a parameter object, not "*".

The following sample will list your friends. Clicking on their name will attempt to fetch the user's data. On orkut, if the user does not have the app installed, you will see an "unauthorized" error.

function onPersonGot(result) { var response = result.get("person"); if (response.hadError()) { output("There was a problem fetching this user: " + response.getErrorCode()); } else { output("Fetched " + result.get("person").getData().getDisplayName()); } };

function closeGetPerson(id) { return function() { var params = {}; var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); req.add(req.newFetchPersonRequest(id, params), "person"); req.send(onPersonGot); }; };

function closePrintFriend(list) { return function(friend) { var item = document.createElement("li"); var link = document.createElement("a"); var text = document.createTextNode(friend.getDisplayName()); list.appendChild(item); item.appendChild(link); link.appendChild(text); link.onclick = closeGetPerson(friend.getId()); link.href = "javascript:void(0);"; }; };

function gotFriends(data) { var friends = data.get("of").getData(); var list = document.createElement("ul"); var main = document.getElementById("dom_handle") main.innerHTML = ""; main.appendChild(list); friends.each(closePrintFriend(list)); };

function getFriends() { var params = {}; params[opensocial.DataRequest.PeopleRequestFields.MAX] = 1000; var req = opensocial.newDataRequest(); req.add(req.newFetchPeopleRequest( opensocial.DataRequest.Group.OWNER_FRIENDS, params), "of"); req.send(gotFriends); };

getFriends();
