Ask HN: Who's using Facebook login on their site? (Is it necessary now?)

1 pointsby smarterchildover 14 years ago
Hi HN,<p>I'm thinking of adding Facebook logins to my site; however, they apparently require me to link it up to my personal FB account (or at least, want my credit card/mobile number).<p>Has anyone added FB logins to their site and tracked how many people use it? I'm trying to decide if this is something I need to do.

I added it a while back to my startup's site (<a href="http://collegejobconnect.com" rel="nofollow">http://collegejobconnect.com</a>) and used my college email address that was already on file to get my api key.<p>Depending on what language your site is coded in, it's not terribly difficult to integrate and gives another way for potential customers, users, etc. to access any "registered users only" sections ... you can also pull a lot of data out of the open graph api if need be. Documentation is not great, but there enough tutorials out there should you get stuck (or just ping me).

What do you mean? In order to get a facebook api key, you have to have created an app as a facebook user.
