Reset Facebook Token Reference - Facebook SDK 4.0


I previously used the following to clear and reset the Facebook access token

[FBSession.activeSession closeAndClearTokenInformation];

Since the update to 4.0 this no longer works. FBSession.activeSession has changed to [FBSDKAccessToken currentAccessToken].

I however can't find the latest version of closeAndClearTokenInformation that works with the latest version. Any suggestions?


Solution

  • FBSDKLoginManager *logMeOut = [[FBSDKLoginManager alloc] init];
    [logMeOut logOut];
    

    or

    [FBSDKAccessToken setCurrentAccessToken:nil];
    [FBSDKProfile setCurrentProfile:nil];
    

    to logout

    Then when you login again, make sure to set:

    login.loginBehavior = FBSDKLoginBehaviorWeb;
    

    Like so:

    FBSDKLoginManager *login = [[FBSDKLoginManager alloc] init];
    login.loginBehavior = FBSDKLoginBehaviorWeb;
    [login logInWithReadPermissions:@[@"user_friends"] handler:^(FBSDKLoginManagerLoginResult *result, NSError *error) {
             etc...
    }];
    

    I found some info in the docs saying FBSDKLoginBehaviorWeb can be used for "kiosk" apps; which I guess are apps designed to have more than one person log into them routinely.

    One thing to note, this login method creates a modal UIWebView which is set up for portrait mode. I'm not sure if its possible to change this yet.
