Iam implementing facebook and twitter using sharekit for an iphone app. How can we get the user id of the logged in user so that I could send it to the server. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Did you try Step 3 of the installation for Sharekit?

Step 3: Filling in API Keys

Most of the web services that ShareKit integrates require you to use an API key when connecting. An API key is a unique identifer that tells the service what app is making the request.

You have to sign up for each api key, but they are all free and sign-ups are quick.

Locate and open the file SHKConfig.h, just inside the ShareKit group in your project's file list.

At the top you'll find a list of services that require api keys. Each service has a link next to it. Follow the link for each service to get an api key. Fill in the api key for each corresponding service within SHKConfig.h.

Note: Follow the comments within the SHKConfig file, they provide additional steps and possible customizations for each service.

For the full documentation see http://www.getsharekit.com/install/ and http://www.getsharekit.com/docs/

I don't know about the textual user name, but if you are after the id -

Take a look at ShareKit's SHKFacebook class. It has an FBSession member called session. An FBSession has a FBUID which is just a typedef for long - but I'm assuming it represents some form of user ID.

you can get the ID's by extending the enum in sharetype . add type as ID . and when you can share function introduce the case for ID checking .

- (void)getFollowers
{
    OAMutableURLRequest *oRequest = [[OAMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:[NSString stringWithFormat:@"http://api.twitter.com/1/followers/ids.json?cursor=-1&screen_name=%@", SHKTwitterUsername]]
                                                                   consumer:consumer
                                                                      token:accessToken
                                                                      realm:nil   // our service provider doesn't specify a realm
                                                          signatureProvider:nil]; // use the default method, HMAC-SHA1

    [oRequest setHTTPMethod:@"GET"];

    //NSString *message=[NSString stringWithFormat:@"status=oh man! OAuth u almost killed me! more info at http://dev.twitter.com"];
    //[request setHTTPBody:[message dataUsingEncoding: NSUTF8StringEncoding]];

    OADataFetcher *fetcher = [[OADataFetcher alloc] init];
    //todo : handle for error callback
    [fetcher fetchDataWithRequest:oRequest
                         delegate:self
                didFinishSelector:@selector(getListsTokenTicket:didFinishWithData:)
                  didFailSelector:nil];

}

you can get facebook user information using new facebook graph APIs for sample code you can use this.

If you need some user info, user name etc, this problem is solved in reborn ShareKit. See FAQ.
