# Facebook
The `@uppy/facebook` plugin lets users import files from their
[Facebook](https://www.facebook.com) account.

## When should I use this?
When you want to let users import files from their
[Facebook](https://www.facebook.com) account.
A [Companion](/docs/companion) instance is required for the Facebook plugin to
work. Companion handles authentication with Facebook, downloads the files, and
uploads them to the destination. This saves the user bandwidth, especially
helpful if they are on a mobile connection.
You can self-host Companion or get a hosted version with any
[Transloadit plan](https://transloadit.com/pricing/).

## Use
Using Facebook requires setup in both Uppy and Companion.
### Use in Uppy
```js {10-13} showLineNumbers
import Uppy from '@uppy/core';
import Dashboard from '@uppy/dashboard';
import Facebook from '@uppy/facebook';
import '@uppy/core/dist/style.min.css';
import '@uppy/dashboard/dist/style.min.css';
new Uppy()
.use(Dashboard, { inline: true, target: '#dashboard' })
.use(Facebook, {
target: Dashboard,
companionUrl: 'https://your-companion.com',
});
```
### Use in Companion
You can create a Facebook App on the
[Facebook Developers site](https://developers.facebook.com/).
The app page has a “Redirect URIs” field. Here, add:
```
https://$YOUR_COMPANION_HOST_NAME/facebook/redirect
```
If you are using Transloadit hosted Companion:
```
https://api2.transloadit.com/companion/facebook/redirect
```
You can only use the integration with your own account initially. Make sure to
apply for production status on the app page before you publish your app, or your
users will not be able to sign in!
You need to set up OAuth in your Facebook app for Companion to be able to
connect to users Facebook accounts. You have to enable “Advanced Access” for
the `user_photos` permission. A precondition of that is “Business Verification”
which involves setting up a Meta Business Account and submitting documents to
prove business ownership.
Configure the Facebook key and secret. With the standalone Companion server,
specify environment variables:
```shell
export COMPANION_FACEBOOK_KEY="Facebook API key"
export COMPANION_FACEBOOK_SECRET="Facebook API secret"
```
When using the Companion Node.js API, configure these options:
```js
companion.app({
providerOptions: {
facebook: {
key: 'Facebook API key',
secret: 'Facebook API secret',
},
},
});
```
## API
### Options
#### `id`
A unique identifier for this plugin (`string`, default: `'Facebook'`).
#### `title`
Title / name shown in the UI, such as Dashboard tabs (`string`, default:
`'Facebook'`).
#### `target`
DOM element, CSS selector, or plugin to place the drag and drop area into
(`string` or `Element`, default: `null`).
#### `companionUrl`
URL to a [Companion](/docs/companion) instance (`string`, default: `null`).
#### `companionHeaders`
Custom headers that should be sent along to [Companion](/docs/companion) on
every request (`Object`, default: `{}`).
#### `companionAllowedHosts`
The valid and authorised URL(s) from which OAuth responses should be accepted
(`string` or `RegExp` or `Array`, default: `companionUrl`).
This value can be a `string`, a `RegExp` pattern, or an `Array` of both. This is
useful when you have your [Companion](/docs/companion) running on several hosts.
Otherwise, the default value should do fine.
#### `companionCookiesRule`
This option correlates to the
[RequestCredentials value](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Request/credentials)
(`string`, default: `'same-origin'`).
This tells the plugin whether to send cookies to [Companion](/docs/companion).
#### `locale`
```js
export default {
strings: {
pluginNameFacebook: 'Facebook',
},
};
```
