Trying to connect to Facebook to make a statusupdate through my Android application. Got the whole thing running but I need API key + secret. Where can I create/get a hold of these?
private static final String apiKey = "<YOUR API KEY>";
private static final String apiSecret = "<YOUR SECRET KEY>";
Tried the same thing with Twitter and then I just "created" an application and recieved "ConsumerKEY" and "ConsumerSECRET", but what is the deal with Facebook?
You'll need to create an application at http://www.facebook.com/developers/. This will give you an API key and secret specific to your app.
You have to log on to facebook (with any valid account), go to Account -> Application settings -> Developer -> Set up new application (button at the top right). After creating application you will see the key and secret at application settings page.
its not working in my case. I tried and added the api key and secret key as well. but when i try to connect to facebook a blank white dialogue appears only. kindly help me out.
