Speaker – James Ford @psyked_james

Time – 11.00AM – 13.00PM

Location – University of Warwick, Social Studies Building – Room S0.03

In the session I will be looking at working with the Facebook Graph API
and Flash. Starting where the Flash Facebook Cookbook starts we’ll cover relevant background theory on how the APIs work – how to authenticate applications and obtain access tokens, how to request data from, and send data to Facebook, and how to obtain Extended Permissions from the user.

I’ll be using Flash Builder and the Flex framework to show examples of how everything works in practice, and then we’ll have a look at the possibilities and limitations of what you can do with Flash and Facebook.

As always, it’s free, but we like to know who’s coming… Attendees who register their attendance as a comment below will be entered into a raffle for a software give-away at the end of the year! Please add a comment if you’re going to be there, and feel free to invite friends/guests along.

Unfortunately we have to cancel this Saturday’s meeting. Our speaker, Mark Doherty has been taken ill and cannot commit to the meeting.

Please accept our apologies for the late notice but it could not be helped.

We will be meeting again in November and the details for that meeting will be posted here shortly.

Regards,

The Flash Midlands team
