This SDK provides code samples on how to construct a URI intent to view 360 immersive contents that are hosted on Facebook, either in Oculus Video/360Photo app if installed or the Facebook for Android application.
To begin, you will pass in the media FBId of the video/photo content to construct the parameter object. You can find the fbid of the content by inspecting the url of the content. For example for video objects, the fbid is the string of numbers (10153779045038951) at the end of the url -
$ https://www.facebook.com/natgeo/videos/10153779045038951/
For 360 photos, it's the value of the fbid param (1195577430501137)
