openActiveSessionWithPublishPermissions show login form twice - objective-c

I'm trying to implement post wall using objective-c but when i do request new permission to 'publish_actions' with action session, the FB SDK login form is show again.
I'm looking for this tutorial: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/ios/publish-to-feed-ios-sdk/
In my application flow is basically this:
void (^completionHandler)(FBSession*, NSError*) = ^(FBSession*session, NSError*error){
if (session.isOpen && !error)
{
[FBWebDialogs presentFeedDialogModallyWithSession:session
parameters:params
handler:handler];
}
};
// abrie o dialog
BOOL isFBIntegration = [SLComposeViewController isAvailableForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook];
if ([FBSession.activeSession.permissions indexOfObject:#"publish_actions"] == NSNotFound)
{
if(isFBIntegration)
{
[[FBSession activeSession] requestNewPublishPermissions:#[#"publish_actions"]
defaultAudience:FBSessionDefaultAudienceFriends
completionHandler:completionHandler];
}
else
{
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithPublishPermissions:#[#"publish_actions"]
defaultAudience:FBSessionDefaultAudienceEveryone
allowLoginUI:YES
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
completionHandler(session, error);
}];
}
}
else
{
completionHandler(FBSession.activeSession, nil);
}
The user is already logged in because I do ask him to log when it enters the application:
HOME
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:#[#"basic_info, user_friends, friends_interests"]
allowLoginUI:YES
completionHandler:nil];
When Facebook is native integration, all right, but when no, openActiveSessionWithPublishPermissions show login form again.
thank you.

Facebook iOS SDK 3.1 has now disabled openActiveSessionWithPublishPermissions. You will need to first establish a read only session, then additionally request write permissions. You can read more details about the upgrade process at iOS SDK Upgrade Guide.

Facebook login failing on iOS 6

When I try to login using Facebook iOS SDK I get the error The operation couldn't be completed (com.facebook.sdk error 2).
The state of the session is: FBSessionStateClosedLoginFailed.
THis is my code now:
-(void) callFBService{
NSArray *permissions = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:#"email, publish_stream, user_likes, friends_likes", nil];
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:permissions allowLoginUI:YES
completionHandler:^(FBSession *fbsession,
FBSessionState status,
NSError *error) {
if(error)
{
NSLog(#"Session error");
[self fbResync];
[NSThread sleepForTimeInterval:0.5]; //half a second
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:permissions
allowLoginUI:YES
completionHandler:^(FBSession *fbsession, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
[self sessionStateChanged:fbsession state:status error:error];
}];
}
else
[self sessionStateChanged:fbsession state:status error:error];
}];
}
I have tried everything in the following posts:

Facebook SDK 3.1 iOS: Handle login if user remove app from Facebook Settings
Any ideas??? Please!
You're passing publish_stream in with read permissions, but publish_stream is a write permission. It's also deprecated (use publish_actions instead). Try removing that permission. You'll need to ask for that permission separately, after you get your user logged in with read permissions. See the SDK docs: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/technical-guides/iossdk/login/#read
In addition, a few things to check: Make sure your app on Facebook.com is configured correctly, including the bundle ID. Make sure the user you're attempting to log in has rights to the app (if the app is in sandbox mode, make sure the user is added as a tester and has approved this).

Facebook: login and permission screen does not close when I return to my app

I am integrating facebook login in my application.
When I request the user for permissions the default UI get presented to him in order to accept the permissions, and then when he clicks on "okay" it will return from the ui to my app in order to continue.
However the default Permission UI remains open in the browser (if I quit the application and open the browser I still see the permission UI that was presented to him earlier.
Is there a way I can close the page in the browser after the user gives permission?
Hope I was clear
This is the code I am using:
This method will show the user the facebook login page in order to get his permission
-(BOOL)openSessionWithAllowLoginUI:(BOOL)allowLoginUI {
NSArray *permissions = [[NSArray alloc] initWithObjects:
#"user_location",
#"user_birthday",
nil];
return [FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:permissions
allowLoginUI:allowLoginUI
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session,
FBSessionState state,
NSError *error) {
[self HandleLogin];
}];
}
Then if login and permission successful
- (void)HandleLogin {
if (FBSession.activeSession.isOpen) {
[FBRequestConnection
startForMeWithCompletionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection,
id<FBGraphUser> user,
NSError *error) {
//DO SOMETHING WITH THE USER INFO
}];
}
}
The code to process the return from the Facebook app
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application
openURL:(NSURL *)url
sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication
annotation:(id)annotation {
// attempt to extract a token from the url
return [FBSession.activeSession handleOpenURL:url];
}
Facebook SDK is pretty problematic, I'd say. Personally, I had displeasure to integrate FB picture sharing into several projects (while their developers released several new SDKs). I don't know, why browser redirection becomes popular, honestly, I don't like it. Generally, I don't think that it is possible to somehow clear this unwanted content from your browser without opening new url from application since it is not a solution. What I'd suggest is to force FB SDK to use WebView. In last version I used, this is set when you create new session with custom behavior. Code should be like this or pretty similar:
[[FBSession activeSession] openWithBehavior:FBSessionLoginBehaviorForcingWebView
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error)handler]

Handle invalid accessToken with FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions in Facebook iOS 3.1.1 SDK

Before anything, I have read both this and this questions to solve the problem below and before asking.
My problem is that when the accessToken gets expired (either because the expiration date passes, or manually by deleting the app from my Facebook's App Center) the following code:
if ([[FBSession activeSession] isOpen]) {
//do something
}
else {
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:nil allowLoginUI:YES completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
if(FB_ISSESSIONOPENWITHSTATE(status)) {
//do something
}
}
}];
}
gets in the else block with FBSession.activeSession open but when the 'do something' is executed the accessToken is invalid so the request gets Error: HTTP status code: 400.
When I try to do the whole procedure twice immediately the FBSession asks for permission (either UIAlertView for iOS6 integrated facebook, Facebook App or Facebook website in Safari) and the rest runs smoothly.
My concern is why I have to do everything twice to work well and why Facebook SDK cannot detect in the first time that the activeSession and accessToken are invalid.
Thank you all in advance!
The questions you linked are relevant, especially Facebook SDK 3.1 - Error validating access token which explains the problem where the Facebook account on the device is out of sync with the server (I.e., if you deleted the app from App Center). As mentioned there, in 3.1.1 the SDK will call to renew the device token only when it gets the invalid response from the server. This is a trade off in convenience for less round-trips to the server.
Assuming your code block is executed on applicationDidFinishLaunching or something similar, it will go to the else block because the app starts with a new session. When it calls openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions, the iOS 6 device thinks the token is valid and will let the state go to Open, so then your "do something" gets executed. Only then does the SDK get the invalid response from the server and invalidate the device token. As a result, the next time the procedure is called, it will prompt the user appropriately to authorize again.
This is intentional. For now, you can consider a automatic retry in your application if the error code describes an invalid token. For example, see the Scrumptious sample postOpenGraph retry code. In your case, it may look closer to something like (I used requestForMe as the "do something" for demonstration purposes):
else {
[FBSessionopenActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:nil allowLoginUI:YES completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
if(FB_ISSESSIONOPENWITHSTATE(status)) {
//do something
[[FBRequest requestForMe] startWithCompletionHandler:^(FBRequestConnection *connection, id result, NSError *error) {
if (!error){
NSLog(#"success on first try");
} else if ([[error userInfo][FBErrorParsedJSONResponseKey][#"body"][#"error"][#"code"] compare:#190] == NSOrderedSame) {
//requestForMe failed due to error validating access token (code 190), so retry login
[FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:nil allowLoginUI:YES completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
if (!error){
//do something again, or consider recursive call with a max retry count.
NSLog(#"success on retry");
}
}];
}
}];
}
}];
}

How does the uiwebview gets access token to like the facebookpage (through iFrame)?

In my project user get logged-in through Facebook native app(FBConnect) and i kept the user's access token. In my app i have a like button which display the iframe of a facebookpage like button and now when user press the page like button the facebook ask the user to sign in again.
Although the user is currently logged-in and the token is validand i am passing the access token in the iframe
Here is the code which i am using for creating iframe.
NSString *str=[NSString stringWithFormat:#"<iframe src=\"https://www.facebook.com/plugins/likebox.php?id=XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&access_token=%#&width=292&connections=0&stream=false&header=false&height=62\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border:none; overflow:hidden; width:282px; height:62px;\" allowTransparency=\"true\"></iframe>",accesstoken];
NSString *likeButtonHtml = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"<HTML><BODY>%#</BODY></HTML>", str];
[webview loadHTMLString:likeButtonHtml baseURL:[NSURL URLWithString:#""]];
Please tell me how will i avoid this second login for like a page on iframe
You should log in with UIWebView. You can do it with implementing method:
[[FBSession activeSession] openWithBehavior:FBSessionLoginBehaviorForcingWebView completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, FBSessionState status, NSError *error) {
switch (status) {
case FBSessionStateOpen:
// call the legacy session delegate
//Now the session is open do corresponding UI changes
break;
case FBSessionStateClosedLoginFailed:
{ // prefer to keep decls near to their use
// unpack the error code and reason in order to compute cancel bool
NSString *errorCode = [[error userInfo] objectForKey:FBErrorLoginFailedOriginalErrorCode];
NSString *errorReason = [[error userInfo] objectForKey:FBErrorLoginFailedReason];
BOOL userDidCancel = !errorCode && (!errorReason ||
[errorReason isEqualToString:FBErrorLoginFailedReasonInlineCancelledValue]);
// call the legacy session delegate if needed
//[[delegate facebook] fbDialogNotLogin:userDidCancel];
}
break;
// presently extension, log-out and invalidation are being implemented in the Facebook class
default:
break; // so we do nothing in response to those state transitions
}
}];

How do I cancel a previous Facebook reauthorize call?

A quick question about the Facebook SDK for iOS. I'm trying to implement the functionality for a user to grant my app access to extended permissions.
While the code works fine when the user accepts the extended permission request (from the Facebook iOS app the user gets redirected to), I'm having trouble detecting when the user has returned to the app while having neither accepted the permissions, or clicking cancel then returning to the app.
If I click 'Cancel' and multitask back into the app, there is nothing logged and nothing shown on-screen. When I try to re-authorize again, the Facebook SDK throws an exception:
FBSession: It is not valid to reauthorize while a previous reauthorize call has not yet completed.
While I can catch the exception, it still doesn't help as I can't figure out how to stop the previous call in order to allow the user to try to re-authorize again.
Here's the code I'm using at the moment:
#try {
[[FBSession activeSession] reauthorizeWithPermissions:[self requiredPermissions]
behavior:FBSessionLoginBehaviorWithFallbackToWebView
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
[self fetchUserPermissionsWithCompletionHandler:^(BOOL extendedGranted) {
if (extendedGranted) {
[self setCanPostToActivityStream:YES];
}
}];
}
else {
NSLog(#"%#", [error localizedDescription]);
}
}];
}
#catch (NSException *exception) {
NSLog(#"%#", exception);
}
Now, the issue is not with the code above - the code works fine. The issue I'm having, again, is cancelling the previous re-authorize call when the user doesn't return to the app successfully after allowing permissions. The Facebook SDK as it is doesn't seem to alert the app of this situation in any way.
From your App's delegate, when - (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication*)application is invoked, you need to make a call to the active session's handleDidBecomeActive method. Once you do that, the completion handler associated with your reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions call will be invoked, and will provide the appropriate error.
- (void)applicationDidBecomeActive:(UIApplication*)application
{
[[FBSession activeSession] handleDidBecomeActive];
}
What you should see coming back from the SDK is an error from the reauthorize completion handler.
{
"com.facebook.sdk:ErrorLoginFailedReason" = "com.facebook.sdk:ErrorReauthorizeFailedReasonUserCancelled";
}
I tested something similar with the following setup: Xcode 4.5, iOS 5, Authorize against m.facebook.com. After an initial authorization I put code to hit reauthorize, then clicked Cancel and got this error.
[FBSession.activeSession
reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions:
[NSArray arrayWithObject:#"publish_actions"]
defaultAudience:FBSessionDefaultAudienceFriends
completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, NSError *error) {
if (!error) {
// Success case
} else {
// Check the error, info
// [[error userInfo] objectForKey:#"com.facebook.sdk:ErrorLoginFailedReason"]
}
}];
If you are not seeing this then it is a bug and you may want to file it with Facebook.
