How to invite users to connect to your application using Facebook Application Development interfaces

I think that this question already questioned, and probably the answer is here: http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Notifications.send

but the real problem is that facebook says: Facebook discontinued support for this method March 1, 2010. Calling this method returns error code 3 -- Unknown method.

while, I couldn't find any other JS-api for the invitation, anyone know how we can invite users, using the JS api or the .net api?

thanks.

A: 

notifications went away but there are many other new apis also - the dashboard api is a pretty good replacement for most things.

Application-to-user and user-to-user notifications have been removed. Instead you should use counters, news (in the dashboards), or send email (to users who have granted that permission), and check out our best practices for the new communication channels.

this one is great, but not good enough.the main problem that non of them is for inviting new users.only for existing users.this is the sentence in my wiki that I am looking for: "User A is an application user, and is friends with User B, who is not an application user."

You still able to use Fb:connect-form to ask your users invite their friends.
Or i understand your question wrong?

you probably right, but I prefer to design my own UI, and have the functionality only, moreover the loading of the UI is damn slow.
rabashani  2010-03-30 18:34:33
i'm sure there is no automated way to do this now

I am not sure that this is what I wanted to hear, cause I was looking for an API, but man - you just help me understand that I am in the right direction ... so I am choosing your answer!thanks man.

A: 

http://wiki.developers.facebook.com/index.php/Dashboard_API should do what you need.
