[twitter-dev] Re: REST API Not quite following

2009-04-30 Thread CentralB-Dev

We're checking by two ways:
Manually through the web
Through the friends and followers lists of the REST API (The new
friends do not exist)

We wonder if it might be a problem only with https requests and XML
format or if others have this problem with http, JSON, and so on.

We checked immediately, after several minutes, after several hours,
and now after days.

Regards

 Are you sure that this isn't just a cache issue... how are you checking to
 see if the friendship exists?  Did you check again after a while?

You could easily test this yourself and know for sure.

2009-04-30 Thread CentralB-Dev

When the earlier developer posted, it wasn't possible to confirm that.
In the time sense then we've resolved the issue, and the problem was
with a faultily implemented method on our app's end.

Our use of GET versus POST on a POST-only API method, plus the
method's false positive interpretation on the (actually error 401!
ouf! ) return from the server = confusion.

Thanks all, we're done and fixed here.
