I am trying to post a message to the users wall using a application and FB.api. This is my page:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="https://www.facebook.com/2008/fbml">
<head>
<title>My Feed Dialog Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<div id='fb-root'></div>
<script src='http://connect.facebook.net/en_US/all.js'></script>
<script>
FB.init(
{
appId: "MY_ID",
status: true,
cookie: true,
oauth : true
}
);
FB.login(function (response)
{
if (response.authResponse)
{
var body = 'Reading JS SDK documentation';
FB.api('/me/feed', 'post', { message: body }, function(response) {
if (!response || response.error) {
alert(response[0]);
alert('Error occured');
} else {
alert('Post ID: ' + response.id);
}
});
}
else
{
alert('User is logged out');
}
}, {publish_stream : true});
</script>
</body>
</html>
This fails. Using chromes javascript debug i find the following:
/**/ FB.ApiServer._callbacks.f1abfdaec({"error":{"message":"(#200) The user hasn't authorized the application to perform this action","type":"OAuthException"}});
As you can see, I provide the publish_stream request to the login function. Is there anything else i need to provide? I cant find this in the docs.
Is there anything else that I am doing wrong here?
Thanks!
You are defining the permissions wrong. To make it work you need to change
}, {publish_stream : true});
into
}, {scope: ‘publish_stream’});
Then it should work 🙂
