Sharing to Facebook from Android using setContentUrl ()
I am having problems trying to share content with my Facebook app. I use the following code for this:
facebookButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View view) {
if(ShareDialog.canShow(ShareLinkContent.class)){
ShareLinkContent linkContent=new ShareLinkContent.Builder()
.setContentUrl(Uri.parse(imageUrls.get(0)))
.build();
shareDialog.show(linkContent, ShareDialog.Mode.WEB);
}
}
});
My images are stored in Firebase storage and I can post to Facebook, but title and description are both set to firebasestorage.googleapis.com like this linked image: screenshot of general post
Note. The setContentDescription () and setContentTitle () and setImageUrl () elements have been deprecated. Is there a way to set the title and description of a shared post?

FadyDev, I don't know if you solved your problem, but this is what I am doing instead of the deprecated codes:
// Builds the object
ShareOpenGraphObject object = new ShareOpenGraphObject.Builder()
.putString("fb:app_id", my_app_ID)
.putString("og:url", link_to_site)
.putString("og:type", objectType)
.putString("og:title", contentTitle)
.putString("og:description", contentDescription)
.putString("og:image", imageLink)
.build();
// Builds the action
ShareOpenGraphAction action = new ShareOpenGraphAction.Builder()
.setActionType(actionName)
.putObject(objectName, object)
.build();
// Create the openGraphContent
ShareOpenGraphContent openGraphContent = new ShareOpenGraphContent.Builder()
.setPreviewPropertyName(objectName)
.setAction(action)
.build();
return openGraphContent;
Look in the facebook doc which action you want to use and the corresponding object type and required parameters.

Hope this helps!
