Facebook API returning "..." for uid and sig about phonegap-facebook-plugin HOT 6 CLOSED

The problem is that fb doesn't return the uid to the native sdk. The best thing to do is to make a call to the graph API for /me.

I thought that I actually fixed this in the plugin ios native code (FacebookConnect.m line 127 I think) but I will have another look.

Ahhh, okay. Getting /me works, thanks. Assuming many people want the UID for identification on their database, it'd be useful to include that in the example, I think.

Here's the code I use:

FB.login(function(response) {
    if (response.session) {
      FB.api('/me', function(response) {
         // Send response.id to my own server to find user in database
      });
    } else {
      alert('Facebook login failed. :(');
    }
 }, {perms: 'user_birthday,email,user_location'});

Duly noted! Will update that and see what happened to my fixes so that its
returned in the session object :/

having the same problem. uid returns "..." on the response

from phonegap-facebook-plugin.

I have this issue on iOS, but Android returns the userId as expected. The attempt is being made without a native Facebook app, so using the popup facebook dialog.
One difference beside receiving "..." instead of the actual userID value is that the naming of the object differs.
On Android, the object is "userId" and on iOS the object key is "userID."

Using phonegap 1.6.1 with plugin from github.

@stevengill or @davejohnson - Any ideas on the issue above? Should i start a new thread?
