Android Facebook SDK authorization methods show dialogue every time

Question

I am writing an Android application that should upload photos to Facebook.

Everything works fine except for one. When I first called the Facebook.authorize () method, a Facebook dialog box was opened with the requested permissions and the Allow / Do Not Allow buttons. Everything is good. But when I launch my application for the second session, I have the same dialog, but with a message that my application has already allowed and offered to click OK.

Is there any way to avoid this second dialogue? Should I skip the authorization method in some conditions?

I tried calling the Facebook.isSessionValid () method before logging in, but that didn't help.

Here is my simplified code:

mFacebook = new Facebook(APPLICATION_ID); mFacebookAsync = new AsyncFacebookRunner(mFacebook); if (mFacebook.isSessionValid()) { uploadPictureFile(); } else { mFacebook.authorize(this, new String[] {"publish_stream"}, new Facebook.DialogListener() { @Override public void onFacebookError(FacebookError e) { Toast.makeText(PhotoFeederFacebookSendActivity.this, "Facebook error: " + e.getLocalizedMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); finishWithResultCode(RESULT_CANCELED); } @Override public void onError(DialogError e) { Toast.makeText(PhotoFeederFacebookSendActivity.this, "Facebook dialog error: " + e.getLocalizedMessage(), Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); finishWithResultCode(RESULT_CANCELED); } @Override public void onComplete(Bundle values) { uploadPictureFile(); } @Override public void onCancel() {Toast.makeText(PhotoFeederFacebookSendActivity.this, "Facebook authorization cancelled.", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); finishWithResultCode(RESULT_CANCELED); } }); } 

And here is my onActivityResult method:

  @Override protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) { mFacebook.authorizeCallback(requestCode, resultCode, data); } 

Any help appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

You need to call mFacebook.setAccessToken("your token") to mFacebook.isSessionValid() and you need to save the marker to prefer yourself

If you only intend to update the status, see my post here ... Android Facebook Graph API for status update
