facebook-authentication

Preface I'm developing several web services and a handful of clients (web app, mobile, etc.) which will interface with said services over HTTP(s). My current work item is to design an authentication and authorization solution for the product. I have decided to leverage external identity providers, such as Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Twitter, and the like for authentication. I'm trying to solve the problem of, "when a request comes to my server, how do I know who the user is and how can I be sure?". More questions below as well... Requirements Rely on external identities to indicate who I'm

I am implementing Passport Facebook Authentication by linking the Facebook Authentication API route to a button using href like: <a href="auth/facebook">Facebook Login</a> When I click on the button, it redirects to the Facebook Authentication page. But on the page, an error message is displayed saying something like "Insecure Login Blocked: You can't get an access token or log in to this app from an insecure page. Try re-loading the page as https://" How can I fix this issue? Christopher Amazingly I just started trying to do the same thing like an hour ago and have been having the same issue.

I want users to be able to authenticate to my Firebase application using multiple different auth providers, such as Facebook, Twitter, or Github. Once authenticated, I want users to have access to the same account no matter which auth method they used. In other words, I want to merge multiple auth methods into a single account within my app. How can I do this in a Firebase app? Andrew Lee Update (20160521): Firebase just released a major update to its Firebase Authentication product, which now allows a single user to link accounts from the various supported providers.

I'm working on a Facebook app tab and would like to use the signed request bundle as documented here: http://developers.facebook.com/blog/post/462/ I'm trying to use their example code to unpackage the signed request which is supposedly passed to the tab, however, $_POST , $_GET , and $_REQUEST are always all empty. The exact code works on the canvas page and I am able to parse the signed request. Is there something that I'm missing in their recent announcement? By the way, the app is not published to the marketplace, and the fanpage my tab is installed on is private. Will that make a

We have a website where the only way to login and authenticate yourself with the site is with Facebook (this was not my choice). The first time you login with Facebook, an account gets automatically created for you. We now want to create an iPhone application for our site and also a public API for others to use our service. This question is about how to authenticate with our website from the app/API and is broken into 2 parts: What is the correct way to handle REST authentication from an API to a website which only uses Facebook OAuth as an authentication method? I have read and researched a

This question already has an answer here: Why is Facebook PHP SDK getUser always returning 0? 26 answers Before i say something i want to say that i GOOGLEd a lot and there were lots of pages found(including many of so's question) with varieties of solutions ... but i have tried each of them one by one but unfortunately none of them worked for me with facebook-php-sdk i am trying to login a user. on first few occasions it was working perfectly fine (2 to 3 days ago.) . Today when i started again working with my project its not working any more .whenever i am trying to login a user $facebook-

With Facebook's new Android SDK 3.0 (that was released a few days ago), the process of authentication has changed. So how do you request a read permission such as "friends_hometown"? The following code is how I am trying to do it - but I'm quite sure it's not the way you should do this: Version 1: protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) { super.onCreate(savedInstanceState); Session.openActiveSession(this, true, new Session.StatusCallback() { // start Facebook login @Override public void call(Session session, SessionState state, Exception exception) { // callback for session state
