[twitter-dev] OAuth question

[hansamann]

Hi all,

I am using twitter OAuth which works just fine, but I am not sure what
exactly this means on the oauth signup page:

Use Twitter for login:Yes, use Twitter for login
Does your application intend to use Twitter for authentication?

What happens if I check this box? Will there be something different or
is this just an internal tracking for Twitter so they know what people
intend to do?

Cheers
Sven

[twitter-dev] oAuth Question

[Francis Shanahan]

I have oAuth working for http://tweetarun.com

When the user Grants access I get the oAuth token back which is the
request token.
Then I exchange this for an Access token and I store this for use
with all subsequent calls.

The question is how long is this Access token good for?

I'm finding when a user comes back even as soon as a few hours the
token no longer works and they have to go Grant again. Am I doing
something wrong?

[twitter-dev] OAuth question

So I'm able to authenticate  receive the OAuth tokens, but I've yet to find
any documentation on what exactly do with them after they're stored.  So,
instead of providing HTTP basic auth info, what specifically do I pass along
with my request to say... update the user's status?  Any PHP code examples
that show full client support (found one or two that just do 1 call, such
as... user-get_info).
Thanks.
