Hello All, Just wondering if anyone has used Parse.com to link Facebook and Twitter for easy signup and Login. I am already have it working with email signup using parse. It would be nice if I can also use parse to help people use there existing identities on face book and twitter to signup in my app.

Thanks very much

Got FB signing in working with Parse.com. It’s pretty simple, however you need to make sure the structure of the login data you send to Parse is correctly formatted with the data coming back from FB:

[lua]

{
                    “authData”:
                    {
                        “facebook”:
                        {
                            “id”:“xxxxxxxxxxxx”,
                            “expiration_date”:“xxxxxxxxxxxx”,
                            “access_token”:“xxxxxxxxxxxxxx”
                        }
                    },
               
                }

[/lua]

I also had to re-format the expiration_date as the format given back from FB isn’t what Parse is expecting.

Hope that points you in the right direction. Let me know if you need anything else.

SegaBoy thanks for the fast reply. I saw the same thing to on the parse.com website. I am a newbie to all this and had no Idea what to do with that code.

Jen Looper has a wonderful website http://www.ladeezfirstmedia.com/ where she has a great tutorial on have people sign up with their emails using parse. She did a wonderful job. I was hoping for some direction with the facebook signin part even a little tutorial like Jens.

Thanks again for the input.

Thanks for the shout-out, guys :smiley:

DevElephant has hit it out of the park with his new Parse module. I haven’t yet tried it but it looks really great. Here’s a link to using it for Facebook logins: http://www.develephant.net/managing-facebook-users-with-the-corona-sdk-parse-module/

Pretty amazing stuff. :slight_smile:
