When using the Facebook site I can upload an image to a friend’s wall feed without having to add the image to an album first.
I’d like to do the same thing using the Graph API. Is this possible?
If it isn’t, I’m curious as to how other people work around this limitation – do you create an album on the the user’s friends profile first? Is that even possible? Or do you upload to the user’s own album first? In that case will the friend’s wall be able to link to it?
Regards,
Tim
It’s impossible for an uploaded image not to be placed in a user’s album. When uploading an image to a user’s wall, that image data is stored in a user’s album specific for the application. As with any other albums, there’s a 200 (or so) max limit on how many images can be placed there.
The only way for it not to be placed in a user’s album is to use a URL to where the image is hosted.
