Get Current User Information

See more Facebook Examples

Demonstrates how to retrieve information about the current Facebook user. This is the most basic thing to get working first (after obtaining an access token). Objective-C

#import <CkoOAuth2.h>
#import <CkoRest.h>
#import <NSString.h>

BOOL success = NO;

// This example requires the Chilkat API to have been previously unlocked.
// See Global Unlock Sample for sample code.

// This example assumes we previously obtained an access token
CkoOAuth2 *oauth2 = [[CkoOAuth2 alloc] init];
oauth2.AccessToken = @"FACEBOOK-ACCESS-TOKEN";

CkoRest *rest = [[CkoRest alloc] init];

// Connect to Facebook and send the following GET request:

// GET /v2.7/me HTTP/1.1
// Host: graph.facebook.com
BOOL bAutoReconnect = YES;
success = [rest Connect: @"graph.facebook.com" port: [NSNumber numberWithInt: 443] tls: YES autoReconnect: bAutoReconnect];
if (success != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

// Provide the authentication credentials (i.e. the access key)
[rest SetAuthOAuth2: oauth2];

NSString *responseJson = [rest FullRequestNoBody: @"GET" uriPath: @"/v2.7/me"];
if (rest.LastMethodSuccess != YES) {
    NSLog(@"%@",rest.LastErrorText);
    return;
}

NSLog(@"%@",responseJson);

// The responseJson looks like this:
// {"name":"John Doe","id":"10111011320111110"}
