Facebook picture json

Android
1

Hi!
I’m using “loginWithFacebookSdk” (Android) method to login, passing this facebookFieldsMappings:

Map<String, String> facebookFieldsMappings = new HashMap<>();
facebookFieldsMappings.put("first_name", "firstname");
facebookFieldsMappings.put("last_name", "lastname");
facebookFieldsMappings.put("email", "email");
facebookFieldsMappings.put("picture", "picture");

When I read that field inside handleResponse method, the field “picture” is a string like this:

{data={is_silhouette=false, url=https://picutre_uri}}

that I cannot transform in a JSON Object (to retrieve url field) because is malformed, should be like this:

{"data":{"is_silhouette":false, "url":"https://picutre_uri"}}

There is a way to get the “url” fields?
Thank you

Hi Simone,

We looked into it and it is indeed a bug. I am assigning it to a developer.

Hi Simone!

We updated production server with this bug fix. Could you try this use case again?

Hi There, with Rest login I’m receiving the full data in the picture field as shown below. Shouldn’t be saved just the URL?

{“data”:{“height”:50,“is_silhouette”:false,“url”:“https://platform-lookaside.fbsbx.com/platform/profilepic/?asid=2392773524071836&height=50&width=50&ext=1548467660&hash=AeRoOXlSddLDN1oh","width”:50}}

Hello Marcio,
I guess this is just what Facebook sends us in response. If your could prepare a minimal sample for us to reproduce the behavior, we could investigate further.

Hi Sergey, I’m login in on (/users/social/facebook/sdk/login) and requesting the picture in my fieldsMapping. Backendless saves automatically the response picture but is saving the whole thing instead just the URL. Now when I request a URL picture from the database I have to treat this field because is not just a URL. Regards

accessToken: this.state.accessToken,
fieldsMapping: {
“name”: “name”,
“email”: “email”,
“picture”: “picture”
}

I see now. So as I said, we just store the value Facebook sends us, and it looks like it sends us more than just a URL. But you can create an afterLogin event handler which would process the value returned from Facebook and change update the column to pure URL from that value.
