Account/verify_credentials should be used to test access tokens no matter which endpoint you use. Oauth/authenticate works just like oauth/authorize in that it is used in the process to get access tokens. It just skips a few steps. -- Abraham Williams | Community Evangelist | http://web608.org Hacker | http://abrah.am | http://twitter.com/abraham Project | http://fireeagle.labs.poseurtech.com This email is: [ ] blogable [x] ask first [ ] private.
