facebook graph api special calls, js

So I am trying to find some user information from a user. However, I can only get those which are in public_profile and "simple types" like first_name, gender etc. However, I cannot get age_range, or user_relationships status or current locations. I am using the snippet,
FB.api('/me', {fields: 'name,first_name,last_name,email,birthday,age_range'},
function(response) {
...});
everytime I try getting the age_range, it just says [object Object]. But I can get the name and birthday just fine. How should I fix this.
My entire code:-
function checkLoginState() {
FB.login(function (response) {
if (response.status == 'connected') {
FB.api('/me', {fields: 'name,first_name,last_name,email,birthday,age_range'},
function(response){
document.getElementById('status').innerHTML =response.first_name+
' '+ response.last_name+ ' ' + response.email+ ' ' +response.birthday+ ' ' +
response.age_range;
});
}, { scope: "public_profile,email" });
}
Thank you in advance!

age_range is an object, it looks like this in the result:
"age_range": {
"min": 21
},
Try with console.log(response.age_range.min), for example.
Not sure what you mean with the other things, you are not even asking for the hometown or other stuff.

Moxtra invite users to existing binder SSO

I am using the Moxtra JavaScript SDK to implement the timeline functionality in my app.
I want to create a central binder for my user groups and got everything working except the inviting of another of my users to a existing binder.
function getTimeline(access_token, binderID) {
var options = {
access_token: access_token,
binder_id: binderID,
iframe: true,
tagid4iframe: "container",
iframewidth: "920px",
iframeheight: "650px",
autostart_meet: true,
autostart_note: true,
extension: {"show_dialogs": {"meet_invite": true}},
start_timeline: function (event) {
alert("Timeline started session Id: " + event.session_id + " binder id: " + event.binder_id);
},
view_binder: function (event) {
alert("Binder switched session Id: " + event.session_id + " binder id: " + event.binder_id);
},
invite_member: function (event) {
var userID = UNIQUEUSERID
alert("Invite member into binder Id: " + event.binder_id);
console.log(Moxtra.baseUrl + "/" + event.binder_id + "/inviteuser");
var postData = {
"users": [
{
"user": {
"unique_id": userID
}
}
],
"message": "Custom message to join this conversation..."
};
$.ajax("https://api.moxtra.com/v1/" + event.binder_id + "/inviteuser", {
type: 'POST',
data: postData,
contentType: 'application/json',
crossDomain: true,
success: function (data) {
console.log(data);
}
});
},
start_meet: function (event) {
alert("Meet started session key: " + event.session_key + " session id: " + event.session_id);
},
end_meet: function (event) {
alert("Meet end event");
},
save_meet: function (event) {
alert("Meet saved on binder: " + event.binder_id);
},
start_note: function (event) {
alert("session key: " + event.session_key + " session id: " + event.session_id);
},
save_note: function (event) {
alert("Note saved on binder: " + event.destination_binder_id);
},
cancel_note: function (event) {
alert("Note cancelled");
},
error: function (event) {
alert("Timeline error code: " + event.error_code + " error message: " + event.error_message);
}
};
Moxtra.timeline(options);
}
as you can see the getTimeline request handles the invite_member event, there is no build in invite user to chat/binder so I can't use that.
Seeming that the SDK calls the REST API I am using that myself to add the invite user functionality. But when I test the request with their API console I get a error saying that the group is not found.
I assign the users to the same group so that shouldn't be the issue and tried to add a user via my unique-id and the moxtra unique-id. What am I doing wrong? Or what other options do I have?

I assume the binder that you are trying to add users (using their unique id) was also created by an user who got created in Moxtra using unique_id method. In that case using the REST API to add team member is the right approach to add additional users to the binder.
When you use the API console, you will be using the access token generated through your moxtra email account. It cannot be used with the binder that you created through the unique_id method.
Based on the error that you mentioned above it looks like either the user who you are trying to add or the user who created the binder are not in the same group. Please make sure both the users are provisioned using the same SSO method.

How to pass initial arguments to javascript functions

I have some simple javascript functions to interact with an API like this one to login:
login: function(username, password) {
var calledUrl = baseapi + "user/login/" + credentials;
calledUrl.post(
function (content) {
/*console.log("success" + JSON.stringify(content, null, 4));*/
},
function (e) {
console.log("it failed! -> " + e);
},
{
"username": username,
"password": password
},
{"Accept" : "application/json"}
);
},
The problem is, in the URL I must pass some credentials and they look like that:
var credentials = "?api_username=" + api_username + "&api_key=" + api_key;
Right now this variable is hardcoded to make some tests but of course it should change for each person using the function. I don't want to ask for it with each request, in this case I only want to ask for username and password. I would like to ask for it once and for all during an initializing process or whatever it is called and then remember it when executing the various functions.

If .login() is the first method that typically needs the credentials, then you can just make it a required argument for that method and then store the credentials in the object:
login: function(username, password, credentials) {
// save credentials for use in other methods
this.credentials = credentials;
var calledUrl = baseapi + "user/login/" + credentials;
calledUrl.post(
function (content) {
/*console.log("success" + JSON.stringify(content, null, 4));*/
},
function (e) {
console.log("it failed! -> " + e);
},
{
"username": username,
"password": password
},
{"Accept" : "application/json"}
);
},
Then, in other methods, you can access the credentials for this user with this.credentials.
If there are other methods that could also be called first and need the credentials for them, then you can either make the credentials an argument for those also or you can create a .init() method that just establishes the credentials or you can make it an argument in the constructor for this object.
You will probably also have to fix this line:
calledUrl.post(...)
because calledUrl is a string and strings don't have a .post() method unless you're using some sort of 3rd party library that adds one.

I recommend that you read about scope in JavaScript. Without more explanation of what you are trying to do, I would try something like this pattern...
var app = {
baseapi: 'http://some.url.com'
/* assuming the api user/pass are different form the account trying to log in */
,api_username: ''
,api_key: ''
,username: ''
,userpass: ''
,get_creditialString: function() {
return '?api_username=' + this.api_username + '&api_key=' + this.api_key;
}
,init: function(){
// do something to prompt for username and password
this.username = 'myUserName';
this.userpass = 'supersecretpassword';
this.login();
}
,login: function() {
var calledUrl = this.baseapi + "user/login/" + this.get_credentialString();
calledUrl.post(
function (content) {
/*console.log("success" + JSON.stringify(content, null, 4));*/
},
function (e) {
console.log("it failed! -> " + e);
},
{
"username": this.username,
"password": this.userpass
},
{"Accept" : "application/json"}
);
}
}
app.init();

use kiiObject to save user data

In my app, every KiiUser has one hash table of data. But I have some problems using KiiObject to save data and get it next time.
I want to create an KiiObject with a specific URI when user registers so every time he logins I can import it with
KiiObject.objectWithURI(<URI>)
Alternatively, how to use objectWithJSON().
I don't want to use kiiQuery if I can avoid, as there is only one object for each user.
Can anyone give me an example of code how to create this Kiiobject when user registers and how to edit it every time he logins ; or every time he edits it and saves.
that's some of my current code but i don't get always the saved data back (the saved hash table "data" undefined on the object)
function performRegistration() {
try {
var user = KiiUser.userWithUsername(<username>, <password>);
user.register({
success: function(Auser) {
var bucket = Auser.bucketWithName("data");
data = bucket.createObject();
data.set("data", {});
data.saveAllFields({
success: function(theObject) {
console.log("Object saved!");
theObject.refresh({success:function(obj){
data=obj;
[....
...Some Code here to edit the...
...data object and save it....
...]
Kii.logger("User registered: " + Auser);
}});
},
failure: function(theObject, errorString) {
console.log("Error saving object: " + errorString);
}
});
},
failure: function(theUser, anErrorString) {
alert("Unable to register: " + anErrorString);
Kii.logger("Unable to register user: " + anErrorString);
}
});
} catch (e) {
alert("Unable to register: " + e.message);
Kii.logger("Unable to register user: " + e.message);
}
}
// the user clicked the 'sign in' button
function performLogin() {
KiiUser.authenticate(<username>, <password>, {
success: function(Auser) {
user = Auser;
var bucket = user.bucketWithName("data"); // a KiiBucket
var query = KiiQuery.queryWithClause();
var queryCallbacks = {
success: function(queryPerformed, r, nextQuery) {
console.log(r.constructor.name,r);
r[0].refresh({success:function(obj){
data=obj;
if(data.get("data")==undefined){
data.set("data",{});
}
data.save({success:function(Sobj){
data=Sobj;
[...
...some data object manipilation then save it
...]
}});
}});
},
failure: function(queryPerformed, anErrorString) {
}
};
bucket.executeQuery(query, queryCallbacks);
},
// callback for failed registration
failure: function(theUser, anErrorString) {
alert("Unable to register: " + anErrorString);
Kii.logger("Unable to register user: " + anErrorString);
}
});
};
Kii.initializeWithSite(<...>, <...>, KiiSite.US);
[...
other code
...]

How about using KiiUser's custom fields?
It is described as "Manipulating the custom fields" in this page.

update query in Windows Azure Mobile Service javascript/html

Am using HTML/javascript to connect to my mobile web service .
the select query is working fine without issues and the connection done ,now I want to update one row. The updating is not working in my html page, no error Alerting.the last alert line not reached . I need to update the status to "2"
This is my javascript
var TimeListTable = client.getTable('Match_Times');
//
TimeListTable.update({
id: "2",
status: "2"
}).read().done(function (result) {
alert("updating done")
}, function (err) {
alert("Error: " + err);
});
alert("reach here")

I fixed the problem ,, It was wrong to send string id , replacing id: "2" -> id: 2 will fix it and it works . Also I made it simple and it works
var TimeListTable = client.getTable('Match_Times');
TimeListTable.update({
id: 2,
status: "2"
});
alert("reach here")

There's an issue with your command (there's actually a bug just like this in one of the tutorials, which should be fixed soon, I'm guessing you got it from there): there should be no .read() call after the update call. Try changing your code to this, and it should work:
TimeListTable.update({
id: "2",
status: "2"
}).done(function (result) {
alert("updating done");
}, function (err) {
alert("Error: " + err);
});
