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

What? Absolutely not. Desktop applications are already an unsafe way of using OAuth, and JavaScript is even worse. You'd be exposing your Client Secret which is against the "rules". Tom On 10/7/10 7:47 PM, Jonathon Hill wrote: > Have you looked at xAuth? It was designed for desktop clients but i

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Is authentication required to use Streaming API?

Basically: sample will send you 1% of all tweets that are sent. ;-) However: I believe that you will want to use filter.json. Taylor forgot to mention that filter.json is also free to use. Sample URL which uses filter : http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json?track=Twitter Tom On 10/7

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Twitter API Write Only Authorization

OAuth 2.0 allows a "scope" parameter. Twitter has plans for OAuth 2.0, so I'd assume that they will include this parameter in their OAuth 2.0 update. Just don't count on it anytime soon. Tom On 10/11/10 8:53 PM, Markanday Singh wrote: > Or may be full itemized authorization !! > > On Oct 11, 11

Re: [twitter-dev] Incorrect signature while getting home tweets

Don't use xAuth, use OAuth. Leave the x_auth_ stuff and use your oauth_token and oauth_token_secret. Oh, and look at what xAuth actually is. It's no replacement for OAuth. Tom On 10/14/10 5:22 AM, Georgooty varghese wrote: > Dear Twitter, > > I have implemented a twitter client application i

I'd assume that there would be an error in your signature generation. Make sure that you properly url-encode all values before putting them in your base string. Make sure to encode only the correct ones. If you've checked this and it still does not work, please show us the Base String which you us

Re: [twitter-dev] API username and password

The API does not use an username and/or password. Instead, it uses tokens. I have no idea what yola is, but if it does not ask explicitly for these tokens, you will not be able to integrate Twitter without a lot of coding. You can get these tokens at http://dev.twitter.com/ Tom On 10/15/10 6:2

Re: [twitter-dev] Possible to return a year of status data?

The search will only let you go back approximately 5 days. It is not intended to be a long-time search. There are some services on the web which have stored all tweets of the past few years - you may like to use that kind of services instead of the Twitter Search API. Tom On 10/17/10 4:56 PM, T
