Thanks for replying @Orian! I came to the same conclusion. That's a
really great resource you've sent me, thanks very much. I feel a bit
sorry for the author of the Tweetr library. Must be a very frustrating
issue. Fingers cross this gets a resolution. I wonder if it will be
some sort of Application Key solution a la the Flickr API. Cheers!

Re: [twitter-dev] Stream API Basic Auth to OAuth

[Taylor Singletary]

Hi Furkan,

It will eventually but it's not currently planned for the same shut-off date
as the REST API in late-June.

Re: [twitter-dev] xAuth gives 401 error code

[Taylor Singletary]

Hi Ashok,

When using xAuth, it's required that you use HTTP-header based OAuth rather
than query parameter based OAuth. It appears that you are mixing both
together in these requests -- using both query-string based OAuth and header
based OAuth. Your request URI should only include:
https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token and nothing else.

Here's a handy checklist of things to remember with xAuth:
  - You must be using HTTP headers for the OAuth Authorization
  - You must be using POST as your method
  - You must be using SSL
  - Your POST body must contain the x_auth_* parameters as standard
application/x-www-form-urlencoded parameters
  - Your Content-Type should be set to "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
  - If the logins or passwords you are sending have non-url-safe characters,

they should be URL encoded in your POST body and encoded again in your
signature base string (just like any OAuth request)

[twitter-dev] Stream API Basic Auth to OAuth

[Furkan Kuru]

Is Basic Auth going to be shut off on the Stream API as well?

Furkan Kuru

[twitter-dev] Re: alert() in anywhere.js

[Larry]

I think throw() seems more appropriate. Firebug and WebKit-based
browsers will work with console.log(). A javascript error for an
undefined function would still be better than an alert().

I am assuming they will create a dummy function that will be used
console.log is undefined- otherwise, you are very right.

We were going to detect console.log's presence before trying use it.
However, the final solution is going to use a simple throw()

One of us is crazy here. If I'm not wrong console.log belongs to
firebug. Which means you will get a javascript error on ALL browsers

Javascript errors at startup time (in these cases by browser bugs in
certain browsers that we don't support) are causing the initialization
to terminate early leaving the client ID unset.  We're going to ensure
that unsupport browsers fail silently rather than triggering this
alert.

ETA for fix is within the hour.

Hey Dan,

Just wondering...does TwitPic have a bug or misconfiguration or is
this an @anywhere bug?

Thanks,

[twitter-dev] Re: alert() in anywhere.js

[Steve C]

What is your ETA on rolling out the change? We are deciding on whether

We rolled out a fix at the weekend that we fixed all the browsers that
we test under but there are obviously still some browsers getting the
issue.  I think we'll use console.info to display these message
instead of an alert.  We wanted to let developers know that they
needed a clientID in the most noticable way but to avoid unintended
annoyance of users we'll move to console.log.

[twitter-dev] Re: Twitter Crossdomain.xml issue

[Orian Marx (@orian)]

I've been asking Twitter to review the crossdomain.xml situation for
months. You can find old threads on the issue by searching this forum.
@raffi has said he elevated the issue to the security team for review.
I'm sure they've been mulling it over day-and-night :)

In the meantime you will indeed need to use a proxy, and there are
lots of examples out there for creating PHP proxies. Here is one to
get you started:
http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/using-a-php-proxy-with-flex-to-talk-cross-domain

You'll have to extend that a bit if you want to pass parameters from
Flex to your proxy and then on to Twitter.

[twitter-dev] Invalid XML 0x14

[Miles Parker]

Hi all,

When trying to persist a stream I'm getting an invalid Unicode char
0x14, which is DEVICE CONTROL FOUR. Takes me back to my childhood,
when there was probably some TTY or LPT out there that that meant
something to, lol. But it's just appearing in an normal element
content. Unfortunately, its giving my XML serializer fits. Is it
possible that stray control chars will just appear like this and I
need to handle them gracefully by pre-filtering them or pimping my
serializer or is this actually something that shouldn't be showing up
in the stream at all?

thanks,

Miles

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Twitter app on iPhone

"Secret" API calls?  C'mon, if Tweetie for iPhone does have this
capability, someone's going to reverse it out of there soon enough.
Someone who cares enough to do it, anyway.

Not offering a public API isn't exactly an "unfair advantage" - it
merely raises the bar.  Now, if Twitter punishes app developers for
using the same techniques that Tweetie or other official Twitter apps
use ... then it's a different story.

Hi Dossy,

This is more likely load related than anything else. We've made some

they now tend to time out a lot sooner and provide an error rather than run

Did a change to Twitter's OAuth get deployed very recently (i.e.,

I'm now getting "Failed to validate oauth signature and token" in

This question has been raised before. We have the same issue for our

I would have preferred to have the user log in each time an oauth 
request is made as it's frustrating when people contat us at support 
because their "in chat" twitter posts aren't appearing only to find 
the posts are being made but to someone else twitter accounts who was 
using the computer before and even though the browser was closed 
Twitter automatically sued this account when we sent the oauth requests.


It's a big problem and a choice should be offered to the developer to 
force logout before an oauth call if this is the process flow they 
want to implement.

I do not think forcing the user to logout  is a good idea. Isn't this 
a security breach? Twitter will any how ask the user to signout if the 
user does not wish to connect to your app with the logged in 
account.Then he will be shown the login page and after successful 
authentication user will be redirected back to your app (like normal flow)

[twitter-dev] Using Twitter to accept messages for a web app

[jon77272]

I have a web app which I would like to accept direct messages via
twitter.

I.e. my users could tweet: d myappname This is a message for the app

It will essentially be a bot controlled account as I would only access
the account via an API to check for direct messages.

I may post occasional notices via the twitter account though.

Is this kind of usage permitted within twitter's t & c?

My app certainly won't be sending out any spam.

Thanks a lot!
Jon

[twitter-dev] @anywhere tweet box + public timeline

[akuchlous]

I would like to integrate twitter anywhere on mysite with following
functionality:

- when user logs into twitter, user is able to tweet

- when user logs in, i would like to embed a box with latest tweet
from the people user is following (timeline). So the user can stay on
my site and also able to view tweets.


Is this provided by twitter @anywhere functionality?


Thanks

[twitter-dev] Re: How do we deal with application's "Consumer secret" in real life

[yvolk]

> Is there any reason why each developer who takes the source code cant

Thank you, very interesting idea. I think we may go that way.
So in our case each developer will register at Twitter and use for
development his own "AndTweet-MySuffix" application.
And main "AndTweet" secrets will be used for official project packages
only.

We may exclude source file with real "application secrets" from the
source code repository, putting there file
with some mock values...

RE: [twitter-dev] Oauth authenticated user

[Gary Zukowski]

Dean,

 

Exactly the same concern I have.  We're going to store the access tokens in
the db under their user profile, and some of our users have multiple Twitter
accounts.  We feel that some of them may see the big "allow" button, click
it, and not realize that they are allowing the wrong Twitter account to be
linked to their TMJ account. 

 

Any way around this?

 

 

Thanks,

This question has been raised before. We have the same issue for our sports

I would have preferred to have the user log in each time an oauth request is

It's a big problem and a choice should be offered to the developer to force

I do not think forcing the user to logout  is a good idea. Isn't this a
security breach? Twitter will any how ask the user to signout if the user
does not wish to connect to your app with the logged in account.Then he will
be shown the login page and after successful authentication user will be
redirected back to your app (like normal flow)

[twitter-dev] Re: Invalid application, intermittently

[Ellsass]

1. Yes, I'm sure.

2. On one occasion I requested new API keys, and on another occasion
(as mentioned above) I deleted the app and re-registered it from
scratch. Here are the three scenarios:

A. Get new API key. App works fine for a while (a few [10?] page loads
over perhaps 5-10 minutes), before getting the error. If I wait a
while (an hour, maybe) it will work again, but only for a few page
loads/10 minutes. (A page load = 3 API calls: statuses/home_timeline,
statuses/mentions, and account/verify_credentials.)

B. Delete app, re-register from scratch. Same as above: app works fine
for a while (a few page loads or about 10 minutes), then the error,
then after waiting a while it will work again for a short time.

C. Do neither of the above (keep the same API key). Same results as
above.

As I said before, I hadn't made any changes to my API calls for a day
or two prior to the error. (I was working on the HTML/JS/CSS, so I was
making API requests, but certainly <150 per hour.) Once the errors
began, the only API-related changes I tried were to request 100
statuses from statuses/home_timeline instead of 200.

I'm not sure if this factors in, but the app isn't publicly available
(I'm blocking access to the directory with .htaccess) and it's hard-
coded to use my Twitter screen name (the same one the app is
registered under).
The only other thing I observed was that often the page would work
fine on my PC (Firefox), but as soon as I tried loading it on my
iPhone it would fail (and then fail on the PC as well). I didn't do
any careful experimentation to determine whether this was repeatable
or just a coincidence, but it's something I noticed in hindsight.

And again, everything has been working just fine for over 36 hours
now. Not a single hiccup.

RE: [twitter-dev] Oauth authenticated user

[Gary Zukowski]

What does “adf” mean?  I want to force the logout and present the Twitter login 
when doing the authentication….

[twitter-dev] Oauth authenticated user

[Gary Zukowski]

How do I force a user to log in to Twitter during the Oauth dance, even
though he/she may already be logged in to Twitter via the web?  Our users
may have more than one Twitter account they want to authenticate/register,
and I want to make sure they are forced to put the correct credentials, and
not just click "accept" for the currently logged in account.

 

 

Thanks,

[twitter-dev] Twitter app on iPhone

[Rich]

So Tweetie is now Twitter and has features that no other API client
can offer.

How about giving us access to features that the new Tweetie has that
there is no public end point for such as signing up for an account or
suggested user lists?

[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth Echo problems

[Rich]

Their echo service is working properly as of Sunday when I was talking
with one of their engineers who deployed a fix.

If you still get a 401 it's likely you haven't signed the echo header
properly

1) You do not oAuth sign the actual request to TwitPic
2) You make a fake request to Twitter's verify credentials api over
SSL and grab the Authorization header that would be sent, however when
you create the header make sure you include a 'Realm' of https://api.twitter.com
3) Create a new post request to TwitPic and put the oAuth header that
you grabbed from Authorization in the HTTP header X-Verify-Credentials-
Authorization
4) Add a X-Auth-Service-Provider header with the URL to verify
credentials.
5) You should be good to go after that

If you get the signature right, it will work as I and a few others
have got it working when we were liasing with their engineers on
Sunday

Re: [twitter-dev] Facing problem.

[Rushikesh Bhanage]

Hi there
  I have included TwitterAPI.php file in say show.php, in this main file
when i call first function ratelimit() and access it thru
foreach loop, it gives error as "Invalid arguments supplied for foreach".

  I thought that problem would be for ratelimit() only, but when I executed
userstatus($unm) and followers function individually in another file, it's
giving error as:  "bool(false)".

Thank you in advance.

 Hi,
   Yes, I had the same doubt, so I replaced a month back's TwitterAPI.php
 file and tried to run, but no happy moment and saw same error.

Actually I was working on another module of this project so was not
 in touch with this, now I tried to run this but
 I don't understand why this is so because it was running perfectly
 few days back, but started giving error now.

When I access ratelimit status through request URL it gives me data
 in value form not in (key-value) of xml format as it was giving previously.


 twitter is a class and ratelimit method has no arguments passed neither
 before nor now.

  your help will be greatly appreciated,

 Rushi
