Tip: You can use AddToAny events to modify AddToAny templates during the share event.


Parameter Examples

For Facebook, you can set an App ID and a post-share URL by customizing Facebook's endpoint parameters.

https://www.facebook.com/dialog/share?app_id=&href=&redirect_uri=

a2a_config.templates.facebook = {
    app_id: "5303202981",
    redirect_uri: "",
    quote: "",
};

Facebook's app_id can be set to empty to use Facebook's old endpoint, which has less features and different parameters, but may support some publisher use cases such as removing Facebook's app attribution.

Facebook's redirect_uri can be set to empty, or to a URL from one of the App Domains set for your Facebook app.

Facebook's quote set to empty can enable a large preview image when supplied, and can enable the "Boost Post" button on a managed Facebook Page.
