reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions handler is called with ErrorReauthorizedFailedReasonUserCancelled

Question

I'm using iOS SDK 3.1.1 and trying to get both read and publish permission at once. As tutorial says, I'm calling FBSession openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions and in its handler - handler A - call [[FBSession activeSession] reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions only if handler A is called with session state of FBSessionStateOpen.

When I have facebook account is set in iOS 6's setting, reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions's handler - handler B - is called normally, with error argument of nil.

However, if I don't have facebook account set in iOS 6's setting, handler B is called with reauth error named "ErrorReauthorizeFailedReasonUserCancelled" when app is switched to Safari to gain publish permission.

More weird thing is this. In both cases before handler B is called, handler A is called with session state of FBSessionStateOpenTokenExtended.

Are these normal or expected behavior of new SDK? If so, should I not check if error is nil in handler B?

Answer 1

happened to me and after searching a while I found a solution for that. You have to call reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions in dispatch_async in the handler A of openActiveSessionWithReadPermissions:

dispatch_async(dispatch_get_current_queue(), ^{
    [[FBSession activeSession] reauthorizeWithPublishPermissions:permissions
                                                 defaultAudience:FBSessionDefaultAudienceEveryone
                                               completionHandler:^(FBSession *session, NSError *error) {
                                                   // handle the flow here
                                           }];
});
