First available in APM v7.5.1 (January 2011), this kiosk add-on feature allows customers to access photos they have stored in Facebook albums and use them to order any product currently available on the kiosk.

The same add-on allows customers to upload new photos from the kiosk to their Facebook account and to Photo Finale. The upload service automatically posts a link to the photos for easy sharing and ordering.

Contact your Lucidiom sales rep for pricing details.


Download from Facebook. Customers can now log in to their Facebook account and select one or more albums of photos to download into the kiosk. Users may then order prints or use the images in any available kiosk product.
1. User selects Download. 2. Enter Facebook account info. 3. Choose albums. 4. View/order photos & products.




Upload to Facebook. The 2nd part of Facebook Connect for APM allows customers to upload their images (up to 200 at time) from their media to Facebook. The upload option allows both the retailer and the customer several options for sharing the uploaded pictures, including the option to post a link on their Facebook Wall so that others can re-order prints and gifts from the originating retailer.
1. User selects Upload from the main menu or from the upsell screen. 2. Select photos. 3. Enter Facebook account info. 4. Add Upload to cart. Photos upload in the background, the user does not wait.

Once Photos Are Uploaded
5. The first Wall post shown is optional for the retailer to offer, and optional for the user to activate. It includes the retailer's logo (shown here as Studio 110) and a link to the 30-day temporary full resolution photos stored on the retailer's Photo Finale site for reordering.

The second post is the default post. The first 3 images are shown, as in any standard Facebook image upload, and click the images brings up the standard Facebook album view. The message is an automated one, which contains a link to the 30-day temporary full resolution photos stored on the retailer's Photo Finale site for reordering, as well as the album expiration. A message below the photos lets the user's friends know the retailer name where the images were uploaded. This same information (retailer name and link to Photo Finale album) is included as a description of the album, so it is visible to users once they have clicked into the Facebook album as well.

Clicking any of the links to Photo Finale brings the user directly into that album, for easy reordering of prints, however, any product offered on the retailer's Photo Finale site may be ordered by the guest.
