Hi, I've looked through the FAQ, archives and other websites, and haven't found anything that has helped on this, so apologies if I've just missed it!
I'm building an application which needs to be able to set a user's status automatically, without that user needing to log in and approve it every time. I'm using a variation on the code at: http://www.voiceoftech.com/swhitley/?p=681 , and it's working - to an extent. A user can visit a page on my app http://www.mytwitterapp.com/twitter.aspx, be redirected to Twitter to approve the app, then be sent back to my app, to the page which now has the form: http://www.mytwitterapp.com/twitter.aspx?oauth_token=EQ8Mi7T2Xqi6y5Ka0d38AyyTG6dL7hFO5wdf2Bp9IDI I can then use that token to get the token secret and interact with Twitter (primarily setting a status update). However, if I try to use that token again, I get a "(401) Unauthorized" error. I thought that the oauth_token that gets returned from http://twitter.com/oauth/authorize was a token that I could store, and use to repeatedly access Twitter when needed. It seems that what I'm actually getting back is an Access Token. So, my questions are: 1. Does what I've written above make sense? 2. Is there a token I can store, and use to repeatedly access Twitter - and if so, how can I get that value? 3. Am I barking up the wrong tree entirely? 4. Anything else you think might be of help!! Many thanks in advance, Richard.
