Adobe Air Application - open facebook app to login

Question

I want my adobe air app to open my user's Facebook app installed on their own device and return to my adobe air app and finish the login process.

I don't want to open Facebook with stagewebview(because the user has to login once more). i want to make it done as other native apps do their Facebook logins.

if this is possible, i want to know how

Answer 1

You'll need a native extension to achieve this, there are many out there, but just going to point you in the direction of the one we've developed and use in our applications:

The facebook utils extension has been discontinued so the following is no longer applicable, please look into the FacebookAPI ANE above

Or there's the simpler one that just does single sign on if you don't need access to all the API (ie if you're going to use the AS3 facebook lib):

You can use FreshPlanet Facebook ANE from here https://github.com/freshplanet/ANE-Facebook

If users have Facebook app then works exactly you want it. Also supported SSO login.
