Attaching a URL to a facebook post using SLRequest?
Question
I'm successfully able to post to facebook using SLRequest, in the following way:
- (void)postScoreWithFBAccount:(ACAccount *)facebookAccount
{
NSString *messageToPost = [self.myString stringByAppendingString:@"https://www.example.com"];
NSDictionary *fbParameters = @{@"message": messageToPost};
NSURL *feedURL = [NSURL URLWithString:@"https://graph.facebook.com/me/feed"];
SLRequest *updateFeedRequest = [SLRequest requestForServiceType:SLServiceTypeFacebook requestMethod:SLRequestMethodPOST URL:feedURL parameters:fbParameters];
updateFeedRequest.account = facebookAccount;
[updateFeedRequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error)
{
if (responseData )
{
NSLog(@"Received Response: %@", [[NSString alloc] initWithData:responseData encoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding]);
if (urlResponse.statusCode >= 200 && urlResponse.statusCode < 300)
{
}
else
{
NSLog(@"HTTP %d Returned", urlResponse.statusCode);
}
}
else
{
[self showErrorAlertWithMessage:@"Unknown error occured, try again later!"];
}
}];
}
I thought I could simply attach a url by appending one to my message string. The problem is that even though it is recognized as a link on facebook, it doesn't show a preview when broswing on facebook, like other url's do. Does anyone know how I can attach a url similar to how the SLComposerViewController does it, but instead through SLRequest?

You can add another parameter to the /feed : link .
See here for the complete list of parameters.
Edit:
You can also add some og:tags in your url inside <head> that facebook will crawl and show by default in the feed:
<meta property="og:title" content="{your title here}" />
<meta property="og:description" content="{your description here}" />
<meta property="og:image" content="{your image here}" />
You can check what is facebook crawling from your site, here: Debugger
