Accessing full friends list #254

Closed JerryBels closed 9 years ago

JerryBels commented 9 years ago

Hello all,

So I want to access the full friends list of my users, in order to let them invite people. I tried using "me/friends" in an API call, but I get only friends registered to the app. I saw here : http://stackoverflow.com/a/23417628/1928380 that this is a little complicated today, but many apps still doing it without any issue (for example Wedpics, shows all the user list without problem).

It seems possible to get the friendlist by using this : https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/reference/v2.0/user/taggable_friends

But then I don't see how to invite them to something.

Do you have any idea how to do that, while using our plugin ? :)

I just missed you can do something similar without retrieving the friends list by simply using showDialog...
