I'm having a problem revoking Facebook permissions using the Android SDK.
There's a case in my app where I want to revoke all permissions. According to the Facebook documentation, you can use AsyncFacebookRunner to do this, and "if you don't specify a permission then this will de-authorize the application completely."
I'm currently doing it like this:
String method = "DELETE";
Bundle params = new Bundle();
params.putString("permission", "");
mAsyncRunner.request("/me/permissions", params, method, new RequestListener()
{ ... }, null);
using the request signature like this:
void request(String graphPath, Bundle parameters, final String httpMethod,
RequestListener listener, final Object state)
The onComplete() callback function seems to come back OK, but doesn't appear to have de-authorized the access token. I'm inferring this because the next time I call facebook.authorize(), it works without pushing the user to the Facebook login page.
Any ideas what I need to change to completely de-authorize an access token? Or is there a different/better way to do this? Many thanks!
It appears from this post: Facebook deauthorize my app and others that it's not possible to deauthorize an application programmatically. Unfortunately, the call above returns successfully to onCreate() but does nothing to deauth/delete the app for the user.
Bottom line: It looks like the only way to deauth an app is for the user to do it directly in Facebook. If anyone knows differently, please say so - but otherwise, don't waste your time trying! Thanks.
