Re: Uploading photos to Facebook - ColdFusion & REST API
Jeff, Unfortunately, due to a bug, Graph API is not currently able to post images to a page event on facebook. But I've finally got the post event with image code working for the old REST API.

Re: Uploading photos to Facebook - ColdFusion & REST API
Michael, This did it, if I pass in all the parameters as formfields and the image, this works. Thanks very much! https://api.facebook.com/method/events.create"; method="post"> Fantastic!

I think there is a function in the facebook graph API that you can use: http://facebookgraph.riaforge.org/ > Howdy folks, > > I'm working on a ColdFusion application that creates events in > Facebook.

> Perhaps Facebook is looking for the params in form variables rather > than the URL since it's a post? Thanks for looking at this. I tried this: https://api.facebook.com/method/events.create"; method="post"> And I get the same response, nothing returned from Facebook and nothing posted to events. I tried a few different post combinations and actually I can't get post to work at all, even though GET works fine. Very weird. I'll keep plugging at it.

Perhaps Facebook is looking for the params in form variables rather than the URL since it's a post? -- WSS4CF - WS-Security framework for CF http://wss4cf.riaforge.org/ On 10 October 2010 18:59, David Six wrote: > > https://api.facebook.com/method/events.create?#params#"; > method="post" multipart="yes"> > mimetype="image/jpeg"> > ~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:338038 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/unsubscribe.cfm
