Hello I have problems to send a new Direct Message. I use xAuth to authentification to Twitter. I get an successful response with oauth_token and oauth_token_secret.
After this I send a request to get the friends Timeline. This I get returned, as I with a new basestring and a new key (consumer Secret + & + token_secret) forms. Now I want to send a new DirectMessage with POST-parameters. My base string is the following: POST&http%3A%2F%2Fapi.twitter.com%2F1%2Fdirect_messages %2Fnew.xml&oauth_consumer_key%3D..........%26oauth_nonce %3D0BAEA1F7-4A0B-ABB6-AA05-345F13153349%26oauth_signature_method %3DHMAC-SHA1%26oauth_timestamp%3D1285073867%26oauth_version %3D1.0%26screen_name%3Dname%26text%3DUpdatemyTwitter%26user_id %3D........ my signing Key is this: myConsumerSecret&myTokenSecret I send an Request on following URL: http://api.twitter.com/1/direct_messages/new.xml my POST-parameter for the Request are ths: oauth_consumer_key=..............&oauth_nonce=2C5E2CF5-0AF9-7BD0- C28F-34638C796700&oauth_signature=KIio37Y +MTF4DIFBERv8HxUVgnQ=&oauth_signature_method=HMAC- SHA1&oauth_timestamp=1285074160&oauth_version=1.0screen_name=.....&user_id=......&text=UpdateMyTwitter After this it will open a new Window, where I enter my user data and then I get an error. <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <hash> <request>/1/direct_messages/new.xml</request> <error>Could not authenticate you.</error> </hash> What is wrong on my request? -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk?hl=en
