Question

https://graph.facebook.com/me/accounts?access_token=USERS_AUTH_TOKEN 

returns a list of pages the user has admin status in (in JSON format).

I would like to list all the pages in a dropdownlist, and make the user choose which facebook page he wants to use (on my webapp), so I can obtain the specific access token for that facebook page.

My question is – whats the easiest and best way to do that. Ive never worked with JSON before, but I guess theres a pretty easy was to do this through the facebook-sdk.

Answer 1

Okay figured out a way to do it. But I have no idea ifs the right way or the most optimal.
Would very much like inputs on it.

 [DataContract]
 internal class FacebookObj
 {
    [DataMember]
    public List<FacebookAccount> data;
    [DataMember]
    public FacebookNext paging;
 }   

    [DataContract]
    internal class FacebookAccount
    {
        [DataMember]
        public string name;
        [DataMember]
        public string category;
        [DataMember]
        public string id;
        [DataMember]
        public string access_token;
    }

    [DataContract]
    internal class FacebookNext
    {
        [DataMember]
        public string next;
    }

public void ShowPages(string authToken) {

 WebRequest webRequest = WebRequest.Create("https://graph.facebook.com/me/accounts?access_token=" + authToken);

            WebResponse webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse();

            Stream sr = webResponse.GetResponseStream();

            if (sr != null)
            {
                jsonSer = new DataContractJsonSerializer(typeof(FacebookObj));
                FacebookObj o = (FacebookObj)jsonSer.ReadObject(sr2);

                foreach (FacebookAccount s in o.data)
                {
                    //Do stuff
                    Response.Write(s.id + " - " + s.name + "<br />");
                }



            }
}
