Facebook Login Integration in AEM

Hi,

I have come across an issue while integrating Facebook login with AEM. 

I took reference from below link

https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/cq/5-6-1/administering/social_communities/social_connect.html

Although everything is working fine but on welcome page it is not displaying the logged in user name the way it is working for Geometrixx Outdoors website.

Instead it is displaiying the ID only.

Any suggestions who have already worked on this integration? :)

When you view the user created in AEM, does the user have a first and last name?

@Opkar,

No I can't see. 

But, when I am loggedin through Geomatrixx Outdoors actual configurations , user profile properties firstname, lastname and email are getting updated automatically. Hence it shows up in the welcome page.

In my case, I have to manually add the first name and lastname of the user in order to display the loggedin username on the welcome page else it will display the id only.

@akshitaa82720401 ,

When you are logged-in with social login like Facebook or Twitter, New profile gets created for that user in AEM. But, User profile would be different from what we have in AEM.

There isn't first name & last name in user profile. Instead, it has givenName & family name. So, you want to show first name, fetch givenName otherwise user ID will be displayed.

Let me know if this is clear to you.

    @Jitendra,

    Thanks for the reply.

    I am aware of that. In crx console, we have givenName & familyName properties for the newly created user. Those properties are getting populated from the firstname and last name property of the user profile details in useradmin console.

    However the question is different. 

    I am not doing any code changes, only thing is I am creating a new Facebook Connect Configuration in miscadmin->facebookconnect and selecting this new configuration in Geomatrixx Outdoors Website page properties->Cloud Services tab. 

    So that ways I am connecting it with my facebook app id and not Geomatrixx default id.

    But the problem is givenName and familyName are not getting populated automatically.Due to which only ID is getting displayed. However if I manually add these details, username is getting displayed on welcome page

    I hope you understood what issue I am getting. Also, I have followed the steps from below link::::

    Regards,

      @Akshita,

      Thanks for explaining in details. I think, I understand now. 

      As you know, When you do cloud configuration, in the cloud config dialog, there are checkboxes for the properties which you want to have when profile gets imported into AEM. 

      Did you verify if the geometrixx & your new facebook connect has different selection on the checkboxes?.  Kindly provide snapshot if it is possible.

          Hello,

          Any solution to the problem?

           

          I am also facing same issue with AEM6.1 and here is steps I have taken;

          1. Created new fb app id
          2. App I'd is approved with require permission that is public_profile
          3. Created new cloud service with new fb app id
          4. And tested, it works fine but public_profile attributes doesn't appear like family name,   Given name, email address etc. 
          5. The name node is available with name only
          6. Next test...
          7. Tried with geomatrixx provided cloud service and works fine and almost all public_profile attributes nodes with value is available
          8. Next test...
          9. Tried to add app id in geomatrixx cloud service and the result negative once again with none public_profile attributes available

            The issue exists for latest Facebook API v2.5.

            Internally, we've been unable to reproduce the problem with Facebook API v2.5.

            The current recommendation is to open a support ticket if you need v2.5.
