Facebook Methods description: friends.get

anna_150.jpg

Returns the identifiers of the current user’s Facebook friends. The current user is determined from the session_key parameter. The values returned from this call are not storable.

Parameters

 

string api_key The application key associated with the calling application.
string session_key The session key of the logged in user.
float call_id The request’s sequence number. Each successive call for any session must use a sequence number greater than the last. We suggest using the current time in milliseconds, such as PHP’s microtime(true) function.
string sig An MD5 hash of the current request and your secret key, as described in the authentication guide.
string v This must be set to 1.0 to use this version of the API.
string format Optional - desired response format. Either “XML” (default) or “JSON”.
string callback Optional - wrap the response inside a function call. This is primarily to enable cross-domain javascript requests using the <script> tag, sometimes known as “JSONP“. This works with both XML and JSON.
int flid Optional - Get the friends belonging to a Friend List

Example Return XML

 

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<friends_get_response xmlns="http://api.facebook.com/1.0/" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:schemaLocation="http://api.facebook.com/1.0/ http://api.facebook.com/1.0/facebook.xsd" list="true">
  <uid>222333</uid>
  <uid>1240079</uid>
</friends_get_response>

Response

Privacy Note : The friend ids returned are those friends visible to the Facebook Platform. If no friends are found, the method will return an empty friends_get_response element.

FQL Equivalent

This function is similar to doing the following FQL query, with the appropriate parameters filled in:

 

SELECT uid2 FROM friend WHERE uid1=loggedInUid
