Facebook Integration Error ( Accounts.framework) in iOS6


I am using the following code (showed on WWDC 2012 videos):

 self.accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];

    ACAccountType *facebookAccountType = [self.accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierFacebook];

    [self.accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:facebookAccountType
                                 withCompletionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError *e) {
                                     if (granted)
                                     {
                                         NSArray *accounts = [self.accountStore
                                                              accountsWithAccountType:facebookAccountType];
                                         self.facebookAccount = [accounts lastObject];
                                     } else {
                                         // Fail gracefully...
                                     }
                                 }];

I have also added the NSDictionary to my .plist file:

enter image description here

So, my problem is that I am receiving the following exception:

 *** Terminating app due to uncaught exception 'NSInvalidArgumentException', reason: 'Access options are required for this account type.'

I have tried with this ACAccountTypeIdentifierTwitter and ACAccountTypeIdentifierSinaWeibo. I am not receiving any exception although they are always returning granted == NO


Solution

  • Well, the WWDC 2012 shows one thing, but the documentation shows another... The method they are using is now deprecated:

    – requestAccessToAccountsWithType:withCompletionHandler: Deprecated in iOS 6.0
    

    What you should do:

    ACAccountType *facebookAccountType = [self.accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierFacebook];
    
        NSDictionary *options = @{
        @"ACFacebookAppIdKey" : @"123456789",
        @"ACFacebookPermissionsKey" : @[@"publish_stream"],
        @"ACFacebookAudienceKey" : ACFacebookAudienceEveryone}; // Needed only when write permissions are requested
    
        [self.accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:facebookAccountType options:options 
                                     completion:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
                                         if (granted)
                                         {
                                             NSArray *accounts = [self.accountStore
                                                                  accountsWithAccountType:facebookAccountType];
                                             self.facebookAccount = [accounts lastObject];
                                         } else {
                                             NSLog(@"%@",error);
                                             // Fail gracefully...
                                         }
                                     }];
