I want to fetch friends of friends from facebook but cannot achieve the same.
I have followed this link(The one with 3 upvotes).I can get my friendlist.But whenever I try to access friends of a friend facebook is returning a strange result.Suppose A is a friend of B and B is a friend of C.
I have installed my app on all devices of A,B AND C.When I run my app as user A,I get json response which contains Bs details.Then I again hit another url using Bs userid and this time I must get details of C.But facebook is returning details of A only.
Here are relevant codes:
The below asynctask is use to retrieve friend of an user:
Here I am hitting the url :https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token=USERS_ACCESS_TOKEN
public class GetFriendList extends AsyncTask<String,String,String>
{ private ProgressDialog progressDialog;
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
if (progressDialog == null) {
progressDialog = createProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
progressDialog.show();
} else {
progressDialog.show();
}
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// contactList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
//String urlforget="https://graph.facebook.com/"+mediaid+"/friends?access_token="+access_token;
String urlforget="https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token="+access_token;
System.out.println(urlforget);
ServiceHandle sh = new ServiceHandle();
String jsonStr = sh.makeServiceCall(urlforget, ServiceHandle.GET);
// after getting JSON string from the URL
System.out.println(""+jsonStr);
//Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "result:"+jsonStr, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
try {
if (jsonStr != null)
{
JSONObject jsonobj = new JSONObject(jsonStr);
// Getting JSON Array node
myfriendlist = jsonobj.getJSONArray("data");
// looping through All Contacts
for (int i = 0; i <myfriendlist.length(); i++) {
JSONObject c = myfriendlist.getJSONObject(i);
friendmediaid=c.getString("id");
}
}
} catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
}
return null;
}//doInbacckground
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
new GetFriendofFriendList(friendmediaid).execute();
}//postexecute
}//Asynctask
Next to retrieve friends from the id I got from the previous asynctask,I hit the url: "https://graph.facebook.com/"+fmediaid+"/friends?access_token="+access_token;
Asynctask:
public class GetFriendofFriendList extends AsyncTask<String,String,String>
{ private ProgressDialog progressDialog;
String fmediaid,nurl;
public GetFriendofFriendList(String mediaid,String nurl) {
// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
this.fmediaid=mediaid;
this.nurl=nurl;
}
protected void onPreExecute() {
super.onPreExecute();
if (progressDialog == null) {
progressDialog = createProgressDialog(MainActivity.this);
progressDialog.show();
} else {
progressDialog.show();
}
}
@Override
protected String doInBackground(String... params) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
// contactList = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
System.out.println("2nd async==>"+fmediaid);
String urlforget="https://graph.facebook.com/"+fmediaid+"/friends?access_token="+access_token;
//String urlforget="https://graph.facebook.com/me/friends?access_token="+access_token;
System.out.println(urlforget);
ServiceHandle sh = new ServiceHandle();
String jsonStr = sh.makeServiceCall(urlforget, ServiceHandle.GET);
// after getting JSON string from the URL
System.out.println("Friend of friend===>"+jsonStr);
//Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "result:"+jsonStr, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
return null;
}//doInbacckground
protected void onPostExecute(String file_url) {
progressDialog.dismiss();
}//postexecute
}//Asynctask
But the above asynctask is returning the profile from which I am using the app.(A as I mentioned above).
This is how I am generating access token:
@Override
public void call(Session session, SessionState state, Exception exception) {
if (session.isOpened()) {
Toast.makeText(MainActivity.this, session.getAccessToken(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
System.out.println(session.getAccessToken());
access_token=session.getAccessToken();
So what wrong I am doing??Why C is not showing up??I have taken all permissions and all 3 accounts have accepted "user_friends" permissions.
