    Note: If this is the first activity that has been created for the user and the request is marked as HIGH priority then this call may open a user flow and navigate away from your gadget. If the container does not support this method the callback will be called with a opensocial.ResponseItem. The response item will have its error code set to NOT_IMPLEMENTED.

    Parameters:
      opensocial.Activity activity - The activity to create
      opensocial.CreateActivityPriority priority - The priority for this request
      Function opt_callback - The function to call once the request has been processed. This callback will either be called or the gadget will be reloaded from scratch. This function will be passed one parameter, an opensocial.ResponseItem. The error code will be set to reflect whether there were any problems with the request. If there was no error, the activity was created. If there was an error, you can use the response item's getErrorCode method to determine how to proceed. The data on the response item will not be set.

requestPermission

<static> requestPermission(permissions, reason, opt_callback)
    Requests the user to grant access to the specified permissions. If the container does not support this method the callback will be called with a opensocial.ResponseItem. The response item will have its error code set to NOT_IMPLEMENTED.

      Array.<opensocial.Permission> permissions - The permissions to request from the viewer
      String reason - Displayed to the user as the reason why these permissions are needed
      Function opt_callback - The function to call once the request has been processed; either this callback will be called or the gadget will be reloaded from scratch. This function will be passed one parameter, an opensocial.ResponseItem. The error code will be set to reflect whether there were any problems with the request. If there was no error, all permissions were granted. If there was an error, you can use opensocial.hasPermission to check which permissions are still denied. The data on the response item will be set. It will be an array of the opensocial.Permissions that were granted.
