Open alexfoo-dw opened 7 years ago

alexfoo-dw commented 7 years ago

Dear Prof @damithc , This is a request to use the Facebook Graph API for access to Facebook account to share and etc.

I will be using Facebook4j API client library for java (added as a Gradle dependency). Do let me know if you need anymore information.

Thanks!

@alexfoodw Hi alex, I'm also using Facebook4J API client but I'm having problems retrieving a user's Facebook id. Do you know how I can retrieve their id with their usernames? Thanks a ton!

Hi Zeng Hou!

Hmm ok you may need to add the user as a test user first on the FB for developers app page, then retrieve the User and then the ID. Do text me if easier! 83223878
