Facebook Methods description: users.setStatus
Updates a user’s Facebook status. This method requires the extended permission status_update, which the user must opt into via the Extended Permissions system. You can test for this permission by checking for the error code listed below (250), or via the users.hasAppPermission method.
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. |
| string | status | Optional - A status message |
| int | status_includes_verb | Optional - Pass 1 to avoid automatic “is” prepend |
| int | clear | Optional - 1 to clear status |
Example Return XML
