[twitter-dev] Retweet count for status?

2010-05-03 Thread Tim Bull
Hi, I noticed that http://search.twitter.com/search?q=Lakers+OR+%23Lakers is returning a recent retweets count which is neat. I can see this in the search API, but I can't see where this would be in the normal API. I'd like to call a specific status and see the retweet count. Is there a way to

I'm sure I read somewhere that the API limit applies to the account and not the application? Perhaps someone here can confirm. In that case, if you have multiple applications registered under the same account, it might be these other apps that are using the limit. I once had a similar issue,

[twitter-dev] User Streaming API and use of OAuth from web browser

2010-10-06 Thread Tim Bull
Hi, We are building an application client that is browser based. We're very comfortable with using OAuth from our server side code and are using it fine with the REST API (users sign in, authenticate with Twitter, we store their access tokens and reuse as requested - at the moment we mimic the

I've successfully implemented a few OAuth implementations with Twitter now and was setting up a new application. Got to the callback URL when registering the app and thought nah, not sure what it will be, will leave it blank and either enter it later or just pass oauth_callback anyway. So I

2010-12-07 Thread Tim Bull
There is a required OAuth parameter step which is unclearly documented by Twitter. When Twitter returns from your /oauth/authorize It returns an oauth_verifier token. Make sure that you pass this oauth_verifier token (along with the other parameters) along to your /oauth/access_token call. Make

Use the OOB process - so pass oauth_callback=oob and you should get a PIN from Twitter which you then use in fetching your access_token. http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth_overview#oob -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter:

Oh, and while I think of it - if you just need the access token to make calls as your app (i.e. it's some kind of bot) then you don't even need to do that - just go to http://dev.twitter.com/apps, view your app and select my access token on the right. This will give you the access keys you need
