Ruby on Rails Omniauth facebook doesn't return email

I have been trying for days to setup my Omniauth for facebook I don't know what am I doing wrong.

I am not able to get the email of the user. The returned hash only contains the "name" and the "uid" not even "first_name" and "last_name"

devise.rb:

  config.omniauth :facebook, "KEY", "SECRET"

omniauth_callbacks_controller.rb:

class OmniauthCallbacksController < Devise::OmniauthCallbacksController
  def facebook
    logger.info request.env["omniauth.auth"]
    @user = User.from_omniauth(request.env["omniauth.auth"])
    sign_in_and_redirect @user
  end
end

user.rb:

class User < ActiveRecord::Base
# Include default devise modules. Others available are:
# :confirmable, :lockable, :timeoutable and :omniauthable
devise :database_authenticatable, :registerable,
       :recoverable, :rememberable, :trackable, :validatable,
       :omniauthable, :omniauth_providers => [:facebook]

has_many :authentications

def self.from_omniauth(auth)
  logger.info auth
  user = where(email: auth.info.email).first
  if(user != nil)
    user.authentications.where(provider: auth.provider, uid: auth.uid).first_or_create do |l|
      user.authentications.create!(user_id: user.id,
                                  provider: auth.provider,
                                  uid: auth.uid)
    end
  else
    user = User.create!(email: auth.info.email,
                       password: Devise.friendly_token[0,20],
                       first_name: auth.info.first_name,
                       last_name: auth.info.last_name)
    user.authentications.create!(user_id: user.id,
                                provider: auth.provider,
                                uid: auth.uid)
  end
  user
end
end

registrations_controller.rb:

class RegistrationsController < Devise::RegistrationsController

  private

  def sign_up_params
    params.require(:user).permit(:first_name, :last_name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation)
  end

  def account_update_params
    params.require(:user).permit(:first_name, :last_name, :email, :password, :password_confirmation, :current_password)
  end
end

routes.rb:

  devise_for :users, :controllers => { registrations: 'registrations', omniauth_callbacks: 'omniauth_callbacks' }

Returned hash:

#<OmniAuth::AuthHash credentials=#<OmniAuth::AuthHash expires=true expires_at=1444504014 token="TOKEN">
extra=#<OmniAuth::AuthHash raw_info=#<OmniAuth::AuthHash id="1506781179612589" name="Ayman Salah">> info=#
<OmniAuth::AuthHash::InfoHash image="http://graph.facebook.com/1506781179612589/picture" name="Ayman Salah"> provider="facebook" uid="1506781179612589">

I had the same problem but it turns out it was a different issue, if you use a client side flow make sure to request the scopes you need on your client:

FB.login(function(response) {
  // hit API callback endpoint
}, {scope: 'email'});

I had the same problem. I made it work updating omniauth and omniauth-facebook gems.

Make sure you don't put spaces in the info-field request (another answer probably typo'ed this).

You need to specifically ask for email to be returned from the info field hash as it isn't by default.

If you're using Omniauth-Facebook without Devise, set this up in your config/initializers/omniauth.rb file like so: 

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :facebook, Rails.application.secrets.omniauth_provider_key, Rails.application.secrets.omniauth_provider_secret,
  :scope => 'email', :display => 'popup', :info_fields => 'name,email'
end

This info is kind of hidden at the very end of the Configuring section on the omniauth-facebook gem's GitHub readme.

With Devise plus Omniauth, however, you set it in config/initializers/devise.rb like so (no spaces in the string!):

config.omniauth :facebook, 'app_id', 'app_secret',  scope: 'email', info_fields: 'name,email'

I only got to retrieve the email by adding this in devise.rb:

  config.omniauth :facebook, "KEY", "SECRET", scope: 'email', info_fields: 'email, name'

You need to request the permissions. For example, to request email, user_birthday and read_stream permissions and display the authentication page in a popup window:

Rails.application.config.middleware.use OmniAuth::Builder do
  provider :facebook, ENV['FACEBOOK_KEY'], ENV['FACEBOOK_SECRET'],
       :scope => 'email,user_birthday,read_stream', :display => 'popup'
end

Please check this Omniauth-facebook if you have any doubts.
