Hi Prashant, Thanks a lot for encouragement. I followed the steps on http://code.google.com/apis/orkut/docs/rest/developers_guide_protocol.html
My url was http://www.orkut.com/social/rest/people/userID/@self + "?" + all oauth parameters I have a few doubts: 1) For oauth_signature parameter, I encoded my shared secret using my consumer key as key with HMAC-SHA1 algorithm. Is this correct way? Should I use % encoding or base64 encoding to send this parameter. 2) OAuth Playground <http://googlecodesamples.com/oauth_playground/> uses oauth_token but it does not use oauth_signature. But orkut rest API developer guide does not mention anything about oauth_token but just mentions about oauth_signature. I assume, I *need not* to use oauth_token for orkut rest APIs. Am I right? 3) What do you mean by correct scope for orkut. When I open the link https://orkut.gmodules.com/social/rest , it opens my orkut home page ( http://www.orkut.co.in/Main#Home), so do u mean, I need to use www.orkut.co.in instead of www.orkut.com? 4) Orkut rest API developer guide says "Replace userID with the user ID of any user who has installed your application". What is ment by installing application here. Is it adding application (application xml) by going to orkut site? But my actual application will be an executable running on device which will be installed with sisx or setup file. I created xml just for authentication purpose (to get consumer key and shared secret), but I do not want my user to worry about any xml/gadget app. How to achieve this? Is this possible at all?
