::: Android login of facebook
To implement Facebook Login in an Android app, you’ll use the Facebook Android SDK, which provides authentication and access to user profile data (e.g., name, email, profile picture, etc.).
✅ Overview: What You’ll Build
| Step | Action |
|---|---|
| 1️⃣ | Set up Facebook Developer App |
| 2️⃣ | Add Facebook SDK to your Android project |
| 3️⃣ | Configure Manifest + strings.xml |
| 4️⃣ | Add Facebook login button and handle result |
| 5️⃣ | Retrieve user info (name, email, etc.) |
🛠️ Prerequisites
- Android Studio (Electric Eel or newer)
- Min SDK 21+
- Facebook Developer Account: https://developers.facebook.com
✅ 1. Facebook App Setup
- Go to https://developers.facebook.com/apps
- Create new app → choose Consumer
- In “Facebook Login” product settings:
- Add your Android app package name and SHA-1 key
- Enable Single Sign On (optional)
To generate SHA-1:
bash./gradlew signingReport
✅ 2. Add Facebook SDK to Android App
build.gradle (Project)
gradlebuildscript {
dependencies {
classpath 'com.facebook.android:facebook-android-sdk:[latest-version]'
}
}
build.gradle (App)
gradleCopyEditdependencies {
implementation 'com.facebook.android:facebook-login:[latest-version]'
}
✅ 3. Android Manifest Configuration
xml<manifest>
<application>
<!-- Facebook App ID -->
<meta-data android:name="com.facebook.sdk.ApplicationId"
android:value="@string/facebook_app_id"/>
<activity android:name="com.facebook.FacebookActivity"
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|screenLayout|screenSize|orientation"
android:label="@string/app_name" />
<activity android:name="com.facebook.CustomTabActivity"
android:exported="true">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data android:scheme="@string/fb_login_protocol_scheme" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
</application>
</manifest>
res/values/strings.xml
xmlCopyEdit<string name="facebook_app_id">YOUR_FACEBOOK_APP_ID</string>
<string name="fb_login_protocol_scheme">fbYOUR_FACEBOOK_APP_ID</string>
✅ 4. Initialize Facebook SDK (MainActivity.kt)
kotlinclass MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
private lateinit var callbackManager: CallbackManager
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
FacebookSdk.sdkInitialize(applicationContext)
setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)
callbackManager = CallbackManager.Factory.create()
val loginButton = findViewById<LoginButton>(R.id.login_button)
loginButton.setPermissions(listOf("email", "public_profile"))
loginButton.registerCallback(callbackManager, object : FacebookCallback<LoginResult> {
override fun onSuccess(result: LoginResult) {
val accessToken = result.accessToken
loadUserProfile(accessToken)
}
override fun onCancel() {
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, "Login Cancelled", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
override fun onError(error: FacebookException) {
Toast.makeText(this@MainActivity, "Login Error", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show()
}
})
}
override fun onActivityResult(requestCode: Int, resultCode: Int, data: Intent?) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
callbackManager.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data)
}
private fun loadUserProfile(token: AccessToken) {
val request = GraphRequest.newMeRequest(token) { obj, _ ->
val name = obj?.getString("name")
val email = obj?.getString("email")
Toast.makeText(this, "Hi $name, Email: $email", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show()
}
val params = Bundle()
params.putString("fields", "name,email")
request.parameters = params
request.executeAsync()
}
}
🧪 Layout Example (activity_main.xml)
xml<com.facebook.login.widget.LoginButton
android:id="@+id/login_button"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>
✅ Permissions & Notes
| Permission | Required for |
|---|---|
email | Get user’s email |
public_profile | Name, picture, ID |
user_birthday | (Optional, requires approval) |
🔐 Security & Deployment
- Facebook Login works only on real devices
- Always check token expiry
- Facebook may review app before allowing access to some scopes
✅ Summary
| Step | Done With |
|---|---|
| Facebook Login Button | LoginButton widget |
| Auth handling | CallbackManager and GraphRequest |
| Firebase alternative | Firebase Auth with Facebook provider (optional) |
Would you like:
- A full working Android Studio project with Facebook Login?
- Or a custom layout (not using LoginButton) with manual Facebook login flow?
Let me know and I can generate the next steps or give you a template repo.
Android login of tiktok
To implement TikTok Login in an Android app, you’ll use the TikTok Open SDK for Android or follow the OAuth 2.0 flow, depending on your use case.
✅ Overview: What TikTok Login Can Do
| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| ✅ OAuth 2.0 authentication | User logs in via TikTok app or web |
| ✅ Access profile info | Get open_id, display_name, avatar, etc. |
| 🔐 Optional scopes | user.info.basic, video.list, video.upload |
| 📲 Deep link / redirect | Return control to your app after login |
🧰 Prerequisites
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
| TikTok Developer Account | https://developers.tiktok.com |
| Android App (Java/Kotlin) | With Internet permission |
| SHA-256 of your debug/release key | Required to register app |
🛠️ 1. Register Your App with TikTok
- Go to https://developers.tiktok.com/
- Create an app
- Add platform Android
- Fill in:
- App name, package name
- SHA-256 fingerprint
- Redirect URI (
yourapp://tiktok-author similar)
🔧 2. Add TikTok SDK to Android
TikTok SDK is not published on Maven Central, so you have 2 options:
Option A: Use TikTok OAuth 2.0 Web Flow
This is the most stable and recommended method.
✅ 3. OAuth 2.0 Flow (Without SDK)
🔷 Step 1: Build TikTok Login URL
kotlinval authUrl = Uri.parse("https://www.tiktok.com/v2/auth/authorize/")
.buildUpon()
.appendQueryParameter("client_key", "YOUR_CLIENT_KEY")
.appendQueryParameter("response_type", "code")
.appendQueryParameter("scope", "user.info.basic")
.appendQueryParameter("redirect_uri", "yourapp://tiktok-auth")
.appendQueryParameter("state", "secureRandomString123")
.build()
🔷 Step 2: Launch Web Login (e.g., with Chrome Custom Tabs)
kotlinval intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_VIEW, authUrl)
startActivity(intent)
✅ 4. Handle Redirect Back to App
Declare intent filter in AndroidManifest.xml:
xml<activity android:name=".AuthRedirectActivity">
<intent-filter>
<action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
<category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
<data
android:scheme="yourapp"
android:host="tiktok-auth" />
</intent-filter>
</activity>
🔷 In AuthRedirectActivity.kt:
kotlinclass AuthRedirectActivity : AppCompatActivity() {
override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)
val uri = intent.data
val code = uri?.getQueryParameter("code")
val state = uri?.getQueryParameter("state")
if (code != null) {
// Send `code` to your backend to exchange for access_token
}
finish() // Return to previous screen
}
}
🔐 5. Exchange Code for Access Token
Make POST request (on your backend) to:
bashPOST https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2/oauth/token/
With body:
json{
"client_key": "YOUR_CLIENT_KEY",
"client_secret": "YOUR_CLIENT_SECRET",
"code": "AUTH_CODE",
"grant_type": "authorization_code",
"redirect_uri": "yourapp://tiktok-auth"
}
TikTok will respond with:
jsonCopyEdit{
"access_token": "...",
"open_id": "user123...",
"expires_in": 86400
}
✅ 6. Use Access Token to Fetch User Info
pgsqlGET https://open.tiktokapis.com/v2/user/info/
Authorization: Bearer ACCESS_TOKEN
📦 Optional Scopes You Can Add
| Scope | What You Get |
|---|---|
user.info.basic | username, avatar |
user.info.email | email address (needs approval) |
video.list | user’s public videos |
video.upload | upload video via API |
🧪 Testing Tips
- Use a real device, not emulator
- Make sure your app is Live in TikTok Dev Console (or use test users)
- Keep the
stateparameter to prevent CSRF
✅ Summary
| Step | Tool |
|---|---|
| TikTok login | OAuth 2.0 URL + Redirect URI |
| Get access token | Exchange code on your backend |
| Use access token | Fetch user info via TikTok API |

- 🔧 A full working Android project with TikTok OAuth 2.0?
- ⚙️ Sample backend code (Node.js or Python) to exchange token?
