How to get FB User ID using Facebook Login Button in android application

Question

I'm developing an application in which I'm using Facebook log in button from SDK. I'm able to get access_token of the user but I want userID too. I have tried almost everything but was not successful. I have used facebook tutorial for achieving that. Here is the link: Facebook Login Button

Please help me in getting userID from the same login button.

Any kind of help will be appreciated.

Solution 1

After successful login, you need to call following code. You can get the logged-in user details with id in response.

Session session = Session.getActiveSession();
Request request = Request.newGraphPathRequest(session, "me", null);
com.facebook.Response response = Request.executeAndWait(request)

Solution 2

Use the getId method of FB Profile class( Facebook SDK 4.0).

  Profile profile = Profile.getCurrentProfile();
  System.out.println(profile.getFirstName());
  System.out.println(profile.getId());

Solution 3

loginResult.getAccessToken().getUserId()

Solution 4

You should be used new facebook sdk 3.0 and

@Override
    protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
        super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
        Session.getActiveSession().onActivityResult(this, requestCode, resultCode, data);
        if (Session.getActiveSession().isOpened()) {
            // Request user data and show the results
            Request.executeMeRequestAsync(Session.getActiveSession(), new Request.GraphUserCallback() {

                @Override
                public void onCompleted(GraphUser user, Response response) {
                    // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                    if (user != null) {
                        // Display the parsed user info
                        Log.v(TAG, "Response : " + response);
                        Log.v(TAG, "UserID : " + user.getId());
                        Log.v(TAG, "User FirstName : " + user.getFirstName());

                    }
                }

            });
        }
    }

Based on answer from @Ketan Mehta (https://stackoverflow.com/a/17397931/624109) that uses a deprecated API, you should use the following code:

@Override
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data)
{
    super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);

    Session.getActiveSession().onActivityResult(this, requestCode, resultCode, data);

    if (Session.getActiveSession().isOpened())
    {
        // Request user data and show the results
        Request.newMeRequest(Session.getActiveSession(), new GraphUserCallback()
        {
            @Override
            public void onCompleted(GraphUser user, Response response)
            {
                if (null != user)
                {
                    // Display the parsed user info
                    Log.v(TAG, "Response : " + response);
                    Log.v(TAG, "UserID : " + user.getId());
                    Log.v(TAG, "User FirstName : " + user.getFirstName());

                }
            }
        }).executeAsync();
    }
}

Even easier, the Request class has a newMeRequest helper method: developers.facebook.com/docs/reference/android/3.0/…

#RajaReddy PolamReddy: how did you define the variable fb? And are you referring to the 3.0 SDK (or 2.0 with the deprecated Facebook class)?

[alicanbatur]

where will we start the activity ? You shared what we should do at the end, but could you please show me where to start intent?

[Muzikant]

executeMeRequestAsync is deprecated. Use newMeRequest instead

[RajaReddy PolamReddy]

it's a old facebook sdk . that time it has Facebook class in the facebook sdk

[Ege Kuzubasioglu]

for some reason Profile profile = Profile.getCurrentProfile(); and profile.getUserId() is not working with current sdk. So, this is the best solution currently.
