Create Events In Android Using Facebook Old Api

I have this code JSONObject event = new JSONObject(); Bundle bundle = new Bundle(); bundle.putString('method','events.create'); event.put('name', 'n

Solution 1:

You can create event using Graph API: send POST request. I try with parameters: name, start_time, end_time, description, privacy_type. If I right understood requered params only name and start_time. If you not set end_time, it will be equal start_time + 3h. By default privacy is OPEN. But I not understood, what you want from event_info? You can add to POST field location. Or you want send extend information with facebook object as some place (as in Graph API venue)?

Solution 2:

Problem with your syntax. event_info tag take jsonObject not string. You have to pass Json object as parameter for event_info. This is my working code . Try this.

JSONObject json = null;

                      try {
            json = newJSONObject();
            json.put("privacy_type", "OPEN");
            json.put("name", mEventName.toString());
            json.put("start_time",mCurrentDateTime);
            json.put("end_time", mExpiryDateTime);
            json.put("description",mEventName.toString());
        } catch (JSONException e) {
            // TODO Auto-generated catch block
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
    Bundle params = newBundle();
    params.putString("method", "events.create");

    params.putString("event_info", json.toString());
    String response = "";
    try {
        response = facebook.request(params);
        Log.d("gaurav", "response of create events ="+response);
    } catch (FileNotFoundException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (MalformedURLException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    } catch (IOException e) {
        // TODO Auto-generated catch block
        e.printStackTrace();
    }

This is working fine for me.I hope it will work for you.
