I'd like to know, how can I use facebook c# sdk to post to user's wall from my wp7 app as application.
So I want to display message from FB application on users wall.
I have so far:
var app = new FacebookApp();
var parameters = new Dictionary<string, object>
{
{"access_token", accessToken},
{"appId", appId,
{"message", "TEST"}
};
var fbCB = new FacebookAsyncCallback(postResult);
app.PostAsync("me/feed", parameters, fbCB);
But this displays text on my wall as I wrote it, not like the application specified by appId.
app.PostAsync("friendId/feed", parameters, fbCB);
I would also suggest you to use the latest facebook c# sdk.

I need to launch outlook calendar appointment in bot application. I found the below code in Microsoft documentation for launching outlook email.
var message = context.MakeMessage() as IMessageActivity;
message.ChannelData = JObject.FromObject(new
{
action = new { type = "LaunchUri", uri = "mailto:someone#example.comsubject=This%20is%20the%20subject&body=This%20is%20t e%20body"
}
});
await context.PostAsync(message);
And also i tried the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Outlook to add appointment , it also doesn't work for me.
Outlook.Application outlookApp = new Outlook.Application(); // creates new outlook app
Outlook.AppointmentItem oAppointment = (Outlook.AppointmentItem)outlookApp.CreateItem(Outlook.OlItemType.olAppointmentItem); // creates a new appointment
oAppointment.Subject = apt.Subject;
oAppointment.Body = apt.Body;
oAppointment.Location = apt.Location;
oAppointment.Start = Convert.ToDateTime(apt.StartTime);
oAppointment.End = Convert.ToDateTime(apt.EndTime);
Is there any better way to launch outlook calendar appointment.
Your code must call oAppointment.Save.
What exactly are you trying to do? Silently create an appointment (then you code above needs to call oAppointment.Save) or display it to the user (then call oAppointment.Display)?
If your code is running on a server, create an iCal file and let the user download and open in (local) Outlook - it will be happy to display the appointment.
Steve mentioned you could use Microsoft Graph.
You might be able to send an ics file as a media attachment (I haven't tried).
Or you can investigate if the protocol handler outlookcal: supports deep linking.
I think this link tells you how it works in Teams

I have an native iOS sample app installed in my iPad and also my sample xamarin.Forms App installed. I want to open native iOS app from Xamarin.forms when clicked on button. I have set URL schema in my native iOS app in info.plist.
How do I open native app from xamarin.forms on click of a button. I already tried
var request = Device.OnPlatform(
string.Format("native app url"),
string.Format("native app url"),
string.Format("native app url"));
Device.OpenUri(new Uri(request));
but its not working.
It's basically how you are doing it.
var url = Device.OnPlatform(iOSUrl, androidUrl, winPhoneUrl);
Device.OpenUri(new Uri(request));
Be aware that each platform have some requirements in the way to url is configured and parameters are sent.
Let say to get the maps app open in each platform you would use these urls schemes:
// iOS doesn't like %s or spaces in their URLs, so manually replace spaces with +s
var iOSUrl = string.Format("http://maps.apple.com/maps?q={0}&sll={1}", name.Replace(' ', '+'), loc);
var androidUrl = string.Format("geo:0,0?q={0}({1})", string.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(addr) ? loc : addr, name);
var winPhoneUrl = $"bingmaps:?cp={loc}&q={name}";
var url = Device.OnPlatform(iOSUrl, androidUrl, winPhoneUrl);
Also you cannot open any arbitrary app unless you know its Url scheme.
Anyway, if the Device.OpenUri() doesn't fulfill your requirements you are good to create your own implementations using the native APIs.

I am using below code in xamarin forms
NSUrl request = new NSUrl("Camera://");
var canOpen = UIApplication.SharedApplication.CanOpenUrl(new NSUrl(request.ToString()));
if (!canOpen)
{ Task.FromResult(false); }
else
{
Task.FromResult(UIApplication.SharedApplication.OpenUrl(new NSUrl(request.ToString())));
}
With Xamarin.Forms, I am using OneDrive SDK on UWP to access OneDrive and it is working good. I am uploading/downloading small data files and I use the following code to change a file's LastModifiedDate:
Item itemUpdate1 = new Item();
itemUpdate1.FileSystemInfo = new Microsoft.OneDrive.Sdk.FileSystemInfo {LastModifiedDateTime = lastModifiedDateTime };
await oneDriveClient1.Drive.Items[item1.Id].Request().UpdateAsync(itemUpdate1);
On Android, I use Xamarin.Auth to access OneDrive and I cannot figure out how to update a file's LastModifiedDate. I am using the following code to sign in and upload the file:
var auth = new OAuth2Authenticator(clientId: clientId, scope: storageScopes1, authorizeUrl: new System.Uri("https://login.live.com/oauth20_authorize.srf"),
redirectUrl: new System.Uri("https://login.live.com/oauth20_desktop.srf"));
System.Uri dataFileUri = new System.Uri("https://api.onedrive.com/v1.0/drive/special/approot:/" + dataFileName1 + ":/content");
var requestUpload = new OAuth2Request("PUT", dataFileUri, null, account);
I would like to know if OAuth2Request can be used to update the file's LastModifiedDate or if there is another way to do it?
Thanks for your help.
Short answer is no. Xamarin.Auth is only to handle the Authentication between your App and the OneDrive Rest Api.
If you want to modify any of the properties of a file in OneDrive you will need to either use a OneDrive SDK for Android as you do in the UWP project or do these modification using the Rest API directly as you did to upload the file.
UPDATE 1
System.Uri dataFileUri = new System.Uri("https://api.onedrive.com/v1.0/drive/special/approot:/" + dataFileName1 + ":/content");
var requestUpload = new OAuth2Request("PUT", dataFileUri, null, account);
As you did in the code above, if you can get the endpoint for the OneDrive REST API to modify the file's properties (like LastModifiedDate) you could be able do it with OAuth2Request.
Go to the OneDrive Dev Portal and try to get that information from the documentation.
Is there an API that allows access to Google's Mobile Friendly Test which can be seen at https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/?
If you can't find one by googling, it probably doesn't exist.
A hacky solution would be to create a process with PhantomJS that inputs the url, submits it, and dirty-checks the dom for results.
PhantomJS is a headless WebKit scriptable with a JavaScript API.
However, if you abuse this, there is a chance that google will blacklist your ip address. Light use should be fine. Also be aware that google can change their dom structure or class names at any time, so don't be surprised if your tool suddenly breaks.
Here is some rough, untested code...
var url = 'https://www.google.com/webmasters/tools/mobile-friendly/';
page.open(url, function (status) {
// set the url
document.querySelector('input.jfk-textinput').value = "http://thesite.com";
document.querySelector('form').submit();
// check for results once in a while
setInterval(function(){
var results = getResults(); // TODO create getResults
if(results){
//TODO save the results
phantom.exit();
}
}, 1000);
});
There is an option in pagespeed api
https://www.googleapis.com/pagespeedonline/v3beta1/mobileReady?url={url}&key={api key}
key can be obtained form google cloud platform.
Acquire a PageSpeed Insights API KEY in https://console.developers.google.com/apis/api/pagespeedonline-json.googleapis.com/overview?project=citric-program-395&hl=pt-br&duration=P30D and create a credentials, follow the google's instructions.
In C# (6.0) and .NET 4.5.2, I did some like this:
(add in your project a reference for Newtonsoft.Json.)
String yourURL = "https://www.google.com.br";
HttpClient client = new HttpClient();
client.BaseAddress = new Uri("https://www.googleapis.com");
client.DefaultRequestHeaders.Accept.Add(new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeWithQualityHeaderValue("application/json"));
var response = client.GetAsync($"/pagespeedonline/v3beta1/mobileReady?url={yourURL }&key=AIzaSyArsacdp79HPFfRZRvXaiLEjCD1LtDm3ww").Result;
string json = response.Content.ReadAsStringAsync().Result;
JObject obj = JObject.Parse(json);
bool isMobileFriendly = obj.Value<JObject>("ruleGroups").Value<JObject>("USABILITY").Value<bool>("pass");
There is an API (Beta) for the Mobile Friendly-Test. (Release Date: 31.01.2017).
The API test outputs has three statuses:
MOBILE_FRIENDLY_TEST_RESULT_UNSPECIFIED Internal error when running this test. Please try running the test again.
MOBILE_FRIENDLY The page is mobile friendly.
3.NOT_MOBILE_FRIENDLY The page is not mobile friendly.

I am trying to use the Google Calendar API in .NET, specifically I am trying to get a list of events. According to the examples here, in different programming languages I need to create a 'service' object and an 'event' object. However, I can't find a clear explanation of what either of these objects is or how to initiate them. Does anyone have an explanation? Or can anyone provide any information or give me a link to where this is explained? It doesn't necessarily have to be in .NET
Here is the example in Java:
String pageToken = null;
do {
events = service.events().list('primary').setPageToken(pageToken).execute();
List<Event> items = events.getItems();
for (Event event : items) {
System.out.println(event.getSummary());
}
pageToken = events.getNextPageToken();
} while (pageToken != null);
Following the advice answered, I am getting the following error:
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.Threading.Tasks.Extensions.Desktop, Version=1.0.16.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b03f5f7f11d50a3a' or one of its dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Here is the code, the error occurs on the credentials = Await... line
Dim credential As UserCredential
Dim clientSecretsPath As String = Server.MapPath("~/App_Data/client_secret.json")
Dim scopes As IList(Of String) = New List(Of String)()
scopes.Add(CalendarService.Scope.Calendar)
Using stream = New System.IO.FileStream(clientSecretsPath, System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read)
credential = Await GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker.AuthorizeAsync(GoogleClientSecrets.Load(stream).Secrets, scopes, "user", CancellationToken.None)
End Using
The problem with GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker is that it tries to launch a new instance of a web browser to go and get authorization where you have to click the "Grant" button.
Obviously if you're running a MVC project under IIS it's just going to get confused when the code tries to execute a web browser!
My solution:
Download the .net sample projects: https://code.google.com/p/google-api-dotnet-client/source/checkout?repo=samples
Build and run one of the projects relevant to you (Eg Calendar or Drive). Dont forget to include your client_secret.json file downloaded from the cloud console.
Run the project and it will open a new browser on your computer where you will have to click the "Grant" button. Do this once and then your MVC code will work because it will not try to open a web browser to grant the permissions.
I'm not aware of any other way to grant this permission to the SDK but it worked for me just great!
Good luck. This took me a good 5 hours to figure out.
Just had the same issue running VS2013 (using .net45 for my project):
After fetching the CalendarV3 API via NuGet you just have to manually add the reference to:
...packages\Microsoft.Bcl.Async.1.0.165\lib\net40\Microsoft.Threading.Tasks.Extensions.Desktop.dll
to the project (because it is not inserted automatically via the NuGet-Script)!
That's it! Maybe #peleyal is correcting the script somewhen in future ;)
Remember that this sample is for Java. My recommendation is to do the following:
Take a look in our VB sample for the Calendar API which is available here
You should take a look also in other sample for C#, let's say Tasks API sample
Start a new project and add a NuGet reference to Google.Apis.Calednar.v3. Remember that it's prerelease version.
Your code should look like the following:
It's based on the 2 samples above, I didn't compile or test it but it should work.
UserCredential credential;
using (var stream = new System.IO.FileStream("client_secrets.json",
System.IO.FileMode.Open, System.IO.FileAccess.Read))
{
credential = await GoogleWebAuthorizationBroker.AuthorizeAsync(
GoogleClientSecrets.Load(stream).Secrets,
new[] { CalendarService.Scope.Calendar },
"user", CancellationToken.None);
}
// Create the service.
var service = new CalendarService(new BaseClientService.Initializer()
{
HttpClientInitializer = credential,
ApplicationName = "YOUR APP NAME HERE",
});
var firstCalendar = (await service.CalendarList.List().ExecuteAsync()).Items().FirstOrDefault();
if (firstCalendar != null)
{
// Get all events from the first calendar.
var calEvents = await service.Events.List(firstCalendar.Id).ExecuteAsync();
// DO SOMETHING
var nextPage = calEvents.NextPage;
while (nextPage != null)
{
var listRequest = service.Events.List(firstCalendar.Id);
// Set the page token for getting the next events.
listRequest.PageToken = nextPage;
calEvents = await listRequest.EsecuteAsync();
// DO SOMETHING
nextPage = calEvents.NextPage;
}
}
I had the same error, and it was due to the app trying to launch the accept screen.
I first tried to get the vb.net example from google and ran that, which I did get to work, and change to my secret info, ran and got the accept screen. I then tried my app, and it still did not work.
I noticed that the dll was found here under my project installed from the nuget packages.
...packages\Microsoft.Bcl.Async.1.0.165\lib\net40\Microsoft.Threading.Tasks.Extensions.Desktop.dll
but was not in the net45 dir. So I uninstalled the nuget packages (have to if changing the .net version) then changed my .net version for my project to 4.0 instead of 4.5, reinstalled the nuget packages, and then it worked!!
