How can a Facebook Platform website using Facebook's API send invites to a user's friends? -
i realize these questions have been asked before on stackoverflow, fbml being deprecated, seems answer may have changed.
i have website utilizes facebook api, in current terminology believe makes facebook platform website. facebook canvas app, apps appear on facebook in iframes.
the requests dialog seem perfect this, if not fact it's tailored sending invites canvas apps, , in case, canvas app blank page assigned me when got facebook api key. suppose put welcome screen , link on page users click-through, it's 1 more click , more friction, , hackish approach.
i've found references indicating there once a way users utilize fbml send application invite, not same request dialog, such when recipient click accept, sent url instead of facebook canvas app. however, noted, fbml in process of being deprecated.
in light of this, how can non-canvas website allow users send invites facebook friends?
the requests dialog supported way. as alternative can use old facebook rest api call notifications.sendemail, send user email either actual email account or facebook mail account. page says equivalent graph api method come replace method.
