i'm currently using the following api of FB Login integration in my Mobile Website : FB.api('/me', function(response){...} . In the resposnse i am only getting an id field and a name field. Is there any way where i can retrieve the actual email of the user who logs on to the site using FB Login pop up.
I read in the documentations about another URL /{id} , but it also returns only id and name.
Please suggest
To get the email of a user, you have to autorize the user with the email permission, and you have to add the field parameter to the API call:
FB.api('/me?fields=name,email', function(response){...}
or:
FB.api('/me', {fields: 'name,email'}, function(response){...}

I tried using hyperlink and supplied it with my actual Facebook Username and it's working. But the problem is my actual Facebook Username is different from the Username provided by Social-Auth-App-Django. So I tried User ID instead but it's not working either.
By the way what I'm trying to do is an online shopping website and when a user clicks the hyperlink, he/she will be redirected to the seller's Facebook Messenger account to start a conversation.
This is the first line of code that I tried which is working.
Send Message to Seller
And this is the code I used using Social-Auth-App's provided data:
Send Message to Seller
And I also tried this:
Send Message to Seller
Any idea how I can use Facebook's m.me/ using the provided data by Social-Auth-App-Django? Or if you can suggest me other ways other than m.me/ I will greatly appreciate it. Thank you very much!

How can i get the user id from facebook url and get the basic info ?
This will be possible if i use the http://www.facebook.com/[username] '
In order to get the ID of a Facebook User, you need to authorize the User: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/facebook-login/
After that, you will get an "App Scoped ID" for that User with this API endpoint: https://graph.facebook.com/me?access_token=[user-token]
It is NOT possible to get the ID of a user by his username (or URL). Scraping is not allowed on Facebook - that i what some platforms do. But you do not need that ID anyway, you can just use the App Scoped ID instead.
I am trying to create users from a POST request sent from curl/httpie commands. Users are created in the User Model, but the password is stored in raw string format. This is what i do.
http POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/user/ username=taco password=123
This creates a User with the following credentials.
Now when I enter my admin site, and click on the details of user created. The password shows like this.
Invalid password format or unknown hashing algorithm.
Raw passwords are not stored, so there is no way to see this user's password, but you can change the password using this form.
I have automatic token creation system on user post_save. Token is also created. but when i put.
http POST http://127.0.0.1:8000/obtain/ username=taco password=123
url***/obtain goes to views.obtain_auth_token imported from rest_framework.authtoken.views from which I receive the token for the specified User.
but I get a error saying..
"non_field_errors": [
"Unable to log in with provided credentials."
]
I basically want to signup(create) a user from terminal(http/curl) and obtain their token from "/obtain"
No worries It so happened that you cant post password in raw string.
so by capturing the .username and .password from the query paramenter. I wrote a a create user code on my view , and set the password using .setpassword().
I'm using Django-socila-auth plugin. It uses google API for Oauth 1.0 Authentication. Question is have anybody used it with google python API (gdata). I mean how to apply auth session_token, stored in django-social-auth model to my api call.
Can you help me with code to get this token from model and apply to gdata.PhotoService() instance. For now it is like this:
#getting model instance from django-social-auth model
association = Association.objects.get(user=request.user)
google_session_token=association.handle
google_secret=association.secret
#token string from django-social-auth
#model Association field "handle" looks like:
#google_session_token = '.......XG84PjwytqJkvr8WQhDxm1w-JplWK5zPndSHB13f.........'
gd_client = gdata.photos.service.PhotosService()
gd_client.debug = 'true'
gd_client.auth_token = google_session_token
#image.image is a file field, but problem not in this.
#it tries to send file in debug text.
#It just recieves 403 unauthorised callback.
photo = gd_client.InsertPhotoSimple(
'/data/feed/api/user/default/albumid/default', 'New Photo',
'Uploaded using the API', image.image, content_type='image/jpeg')
I'm recieving error
403 Invalid token string.
I understand that it needs secret too but how to apply it to API for auth?(To receive authorization to post photos.). BTW I added Picassa feed URL, as an option string for social-auth to ask permissions, so token I have asks for Picassa feed permissions when authorizing with google.
BTW. Google tutorial I've used is: here
I understand it's Oauth 1.0 rather than AusSub, but question is:
how to authenticate with token and secret I have and post a photo with this permission?
Just to answer my own problem. I used wrong way to do it, because problem in 'gd_client' and AuthSub.
It must check token on server. And it can not do it on localhost. You need to look ahead to Oauth/Oauth2 for better debugging and so on... No matter that it is much complex than AuthSub
So in my app, I do this:
FB.api('/me', function(response) {
alert(response.name);
});
This gives me the users name IF they are logged into FB through my site. Now, is there a way I can get a unique ID for them as well? That way everytime they post something on my site, I can store their post along with their FB name AND Id, and then I know which posts they have made in the past when they are connected to their FB through my site.
You can use response.id to get the Facebook Users unique id.
