Hi Chris,

As it is currently written the PIN code will always be numeric, in part to handle the lowest-common-denominator of mobile handsets. There is no plan to change that.

Thanks;

Hi,

To answer myself, yes it is.

I guess I cannot assume that the twitter pin code will always be numeric - would be nice to give the user the numberpad if it is, but then they cannot switch to text...

Regards,
Chris

Hi,

A bit late to this party, so sorry for repeating stuff, but trying to get my old head around the twitter 1.0a OAuth changes.

  
http://oauth.googlecode.com/svn/spec/core/1.0a/drafts/3/oauth-core-1_0a.html#auth_step3

  
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk/browse_frm/thread/1c48fedf4ae7ed52/7d772dedcc756cbf#7d772dedcc756cbf

I have a desktop client (an iphone app, Twitkwik) which 'now' supplies the user with a pin code after they authorise the app to use Twitter.

My understanding is that the app should ask the user for the pin code and then send this (as oauth_verifier) when swapping the request token for an access token request.

Does that sound correct?

As far as I can tell, webapps can get round this by providing a callback.

Thanks in advance,
Chris
