[twitter-dev] Authentication dilemma
We have a website for internal use within our company. When a certain action occurs on the site, such as a survey being completed, we would like to have the app (our website) post a status update on our company's Twitter account. This process is supposed to be invisible to the user and cannot involve several steps (several requests being made by the browser). What is the proper authentication method for this? It used to be very easy with Basic Auth, but now I am confused. OAuth seems to be designed for Twitter user agents, which is not our case. The visitor of our website does not interact with Twitter in any way.

[twitter-dev] Re: GET direct_messages not works
Anbarasan K, you have to go to dev.twitter.com/apps, go to your app and change the Permission level to Read/Write Direct Messages, once you do that you have to revoke and re-authorize your client. That is because Twitter just change the API permission level and by doing this, if you upgrade or downgrade the app permission, the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret change as well. Hope this helps On Jul 2, 9:34 am, Anbarasan K kanbarasa...@gmail.com wrote: Hi, I have used 'GET direct_messages' for getting my direct message using twitter REST API method.

[twitter-dev] How to build API proxy(with Ruby)
Hi, everyone. I want to build personal API proxy server like apigee for NLP related research. Basically, it should receive request from the client, redirect it to the official API server, get the response, and send the response to the client. I have two questions. 1. What I want is similar to MITM attack. Is it possible to make such thing, and how? 2. Is there an implementation of this in ruby (using Sinatra or something)?

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Twitter Search not showing results
Hai shilpa, Rate Limiting depends on the IP Adress. Twitter server calculates the no of requests from the IP adress and limits the response. //kamesh On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 10:33 PM, sri shilpa srishilp...@gmail.com wrote: Thank You Kamesh.

Hai, is it possible for u which API that lib is using. Because twitter deprecated the OLD statuses/following, statuses/follower API.

Thats why I isntalled a second api lib, and the result is the same.. Strange, I can get other users tweets easily! What happened, maybe I connected too many times to the api server? Again, the api libs are okay, I have probs only with my account. Anyway the account is active and live, I can post tweets and log in and so on.

Re: [twitter-dev] Authentication dilemma
You can use/create a tool such as http://getaccesstoken.aldianfazrihady.comto generate access token then store it somewhere. Your twitter API calls will use that offline access token.
