Creating a Facebook service

Authenticating with Facebook requires creating a Facebook app, then creating a corresponding Facebook service in Brightspot.

To create a Facebook service:

  1. Ensure that you have already configured a Facebook app as described in the following steps:

    1. Navigate to Facebook for Developers > All Apps.
    2. Navigate to App Settings.
    3. Set your App Domains to the domains that will be used by the app.
    4. Copy the App ID and App Secret.
  2. Click > Social > Services.

  3. In the Services widget, Click New Facebook Service.

  4. Under Name, enter a name for this Facebook service.

  5. Under App ID, paste the app ID you copied from Facebook.

  6. Under App Secret, paste the app secret you copied from Facebook.

  7. Click Save.

Once you have created a Facebook service, slot it into the Facebook Service field when configuring Facebook authentication settings.
