Hi,

I was looking at the facebook authentication in the 6.2.0 source and I noticed that the value below is stored in AuthenticationToken column of the UserAuthentication table:

"Facebook - 123456789" (where 123456789 is your facebook UserID)

Shouldn't the real faceboko authentication token be stored here?

I mean the facebook token returned by the OAuth process that could be used lateron to authenticate facebook graph queries on behalf of the facebook user?

Thanks!

I would log this as a request via http://support.dotnetnuke.com. It depends on the exact needs. In some cases the userid is the better choice, other times the token, just depending on the desired integration.

thanks mitchel.

the facebook user id is already stored in the username of the user, so it can be deducted from there.

I logged the issue: http://support.dotnetnuke.com/issue/ViewIssue.aspx?id=21949&PROJID=2
