Facebook library, REST Web Services - Which Corona SDK plan?

Hi guys,

I wanna build a game which logins into Facebook using the Facebook library https://docs.coronalabs.com/api/library/facebook/index.html. Also, I need

consume a REST Web Service. So, my question is:  What is the minimum

Corona SDK plan which satisfies these requirements? Basic, Pro or Enterprise?

Thanks!

Hello @angelo59,

Facebook is available to all tiers. In regards to REST services, can you be more specific about your needs and what you want to accomplish with REST calls?

Thanks,

So, I can login into Facebook even using the “Starter”? Regarding REST Web Services, I need to send a POST request with some textual content (JSON) and get a response with some textual (JSON) and binary (png/jpeg) content.

I guess what has us confused is when you say REST are you talking about the Facebook Graph API REST interface or some other website’s REST interface?  Not that it really matters to your overall question.

The facebook.* API is available  to all tiers.  This includes the facebook.request() API call which is used for the Facebook Graph API calls (me/feed, me/friends, etc.).

The network.* API is available to all tiers.  This includes the network.request() API which can be used with most REST web services.

Thank you Brent and Rob.

I just need to call an ordinary Java REST Web Service, and this, BTW, is exactly what I need :slight_smile: Great job!
