Re: [twitter-dev] [Twitter Profile Image Update]What am I gonna do? anybody knows?
Jusung -
I'm using Objective-c as well and I've gotten more than an handful of 500
errors, even the the post was successful and the avatar was updated.
The users/show API also is slow to update and show the new avatar.
Is your Twitter avatar update reflected on twitter.com ?

Hi Jusung,
Our image upload facilities are in need of some refactoring -- they
frequently respond with a 500, sometimes having processed the image and
sometimes not. Have you checked after uploading to see if the image was
accepted?
I'm not familiar enough with Objective-C to really help you in that area,
but I wanted to make sure you know that basic authentication is going away
later this month, and if you're working on any kind of new project, you
should be using OAuth: http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth_overview

Re: [twitter-dev] Encrypt access key, secret, or both?
I guess I'm getting terminology confused. My application is a desktop Mac applications. When I registered my app I got a Consumer Key and a Consumer Secret. These belong to my app. For a given user I go though the xAuth process and get back an Access Token, consisting of a key and secret. These belong to that particular user. So, using the built in Keychain I need to encrypt the user Access Token secret per user as well as the app's Consumer Secret, correct? It is (relatively) safe then to store the Access Token key in something like a Core Data store, so long as the secret is encrypted. I feel like the terminology is all melding in my head between Twitter's API guide and some of the OAuth guides I've read, so I apologize for my confusion. +Clint On Wed, Jun 2, 2010 at 8:57 AM, Taylor Singletary taylorsinglet...@twitter.com wrote: Encrypting your consumer secret is the most important, but encrypting your access token secret isn't a bad idea at all -- I would recommend it.

I've tried to keep the code as simple to understand as possible, but it does the basics: - Adds the required parameters to the access token request - Overloads the request method in MGTwitterEngine with a signed request. - Shows how to store the access key in the Mac OS X Keychain. - Performs a basic tweet post and fetches the home timeline. It's just meant to help people get going and see a complete solution in action or a as a resource to compare their own solution. I did one of these for OAuth last summer and it was pretty popular, so I figured I'd just keep the ball rolling.

[twitter-dev] Re: update profile image and profile image url
I never got any response on this, but a small update: it's now down to about an hour for this to update correctly. Often I'll hit /users/show/username.json and it will return the correct value, however if I go and update the avatar a 2nd time (to the 3rd image, counting the first, original), the json file now returns the 2nd avatar (not the new, third). So the json file updates but then seems to be cached. Is this parameter being cached in some way, or is this still a bug that's waiting to be resolved after the image-hosting move? If it's cached and it's a known time frame I can update my app accordingly, but right now I don't know that for sure. The web interface updates this parameter immediately.

I did notice that the /username.xml reflects this update immediately. This is apparent if you're using a twitter client (say tweetie or twitteriffic). If a user updates their profile image these apps are showing blank/empty images because the API is still returning the old profile image url, which no longer points to a valid file.

However, the data returned in the API user data for profile_image_url is both incomplete (no extension) and never changes, despite multiple uploads: * profile_image_urlhttp://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/ profile_images/98187860/phpbnQSdI_normal/profile_image_url This is different than my own profile, which returns a URI to an actual file, with an extension. It is also odd that, regardless of how often or with which tool (API vs. web site), this value never changes. In the HTML source of the twitter profile page, an explicit URI pointing to the correct profile image is used (http://s3.amazonaws.com/ twitter_production/profile_images/257370741/ObamaAvatar_bigger.png) * Test account with changed picture: http://twitter.com/users/show/anonymous_.xml * My account without no changes: http://twitter.com/users/show/kmakice.xml One other oddity: This test account has a background image (not one that is currently used, but it still exists) that also lacks an extension. I believe I had changed it through the API, several month ago. That incomplete link, however, DOES resolve to a graphic. * Test account background image: http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_background_images/4987975/phpBhOnhz (unchanged) * Test account profile image: http://s3.amazonaws.com/twitter_production/profile_images/98187860/phpbnQSdI_normal (changed) I thought perhaps the funky profile image URI would eventually resolve, but even after several hours, it didn't. (I have since conducted new tests, so the changes aren't that old anymore.) My questions: 1) Is this no-extension link in the *_image_url values a new format?

Can you please give some pointer to how to use local source to represent the new avatar?

But the new image doesn't come up immediately near my tweets. Instead I find my full name at that place. It shows up only after an hour or so. BTW, if I access http://twitter.com/account/profile_image/X (X being the username), I can see the newly updated image immediately. This problem is not noticed if I update my profile image using a web browser. What is the way to update profile image via API so that the newly updated image come up near your tweets immediately? If I'm understanding you correctly, there isn't. There is a lag while the new image gets propagated to the servers. -- personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckai...@floodgap.com -- Two can live as cheaply as one, for half as long. --
