Hi I am using OAuth for twitter and fb-connect for facebook authentication in my iPhone app. Is it possible to save the user sessions across app launches? i.e. if the user logs in once, the next time they launch the app, we log them in automatically from some state saved the last time the app closed? For Twitter would it work if I ju...

We're currently working on an API that will be consumed by a variety of different devices. We want to use the OAuth2 spec as it defines several flows which were not available in the original OAuth spec. My question is, what flow would work best for a mobile device such as the iPhone or iPad? What flow does an application like TweetDeck u...
Sometimes an Twitter OAuth is successfully executed, but an unauthorized error is thrown. I get about 50 of these on a daily basis. It is worrying, because I have no idea how that might be reproduced. What are the different cases where this error happens, and how can this be fixed or prevented? ...
I've had great luck with DotNetOpenAuth to do 3 legged authorization. Currently, I am connecting and pulling in some Google data. My question is that apparently, if you have already auth'd my web application to your Google account, when I call var accessTokenResponse = google.ProcessUserAuthorization(); It basically does nothing. ...
My team and I are implementing a centralized API authentication system so that one set of API credentials can be shared among several different API-publishing services. These are all Rails apps. Long explanation For any given API transaction, there will typically be 3 apps involved: End-user-facing app that consumes API X. Has API ...
I am writing a Python/Django web application that uses OAuth (for the TwitterAPI, not that it should matter). I am storing a session ID in my login function, and then after using OAuth to get the user's token, I try to retrieve the sessionID in my callback function. The callback function then always fails(throws an exception) because i...
'Background processing' is a terrible term, but I can't think of a better one at this time on a Friday! I need a specific part of my web app to communicate with twitter - post a status using a single, fixed account. Every twitter oauth tutorial I've seen talks about applications in the general sense - those with multiple users. Does any...
Hello guys, I started playing with the new graph api with the python sdk. I'm trying to use the python-sdk in an iframe app to make the authentication (I successfully did it with JS - although the popup is blocked on IE and chrome by default). I'm following this example: http://github.com/facebook/python-sdk/blob/master/examples/oauth/f...
What is the very, very simplest method of getting the RSS (or JSONP) feed of a Twitter account's list or friends' timeline? Here some background: I have a simple server script that feeds a Twitter widget. I wrote the script about two months ago but have not had the chance to deploy it until now. The script fetches the friends_timeline o...

I'm developing a rails app where the user needs to be able to create an account & login with either facebook OR twitter. It seems pretty straightforward if I want to do one or the other, but implementing both looks like it could present some difficulty. Does anybody else have any experience with implementing both Twitter's oauth and Fa...
Following http://code.google.com/apis/gmail/oauth/protocol.html#imap I'm trying to implement an IMAP client for Gmail that uses OAuth. My code works fine and I can connect to the IMAP server, however, after 1 day when I retry using the same XOAUTH value, I get an invalid credentials. It might be a problem in my code causing this, but ...
Hello everyone, I'm testing the twitter API (with OAuth) and I have a little problem, I wonder if anyone knows how to fix it, the situation is that at the time I do this (in my redirect.php): $ Url = $ connection-> getAuthorizeURL ($ token); header ("Location: $ url"); The request go to twitter, and it's authenticated, but I this ret...

Does someone know of a library that is fairly "drop in" and allows you to easily put together multiple authentication options in an Android app to services like Facebook, OpenID, Twitter, etc. much like RPX does? ...

I'm working on a web based project where we make use of the user's Google feeds and we store some information about them in our database. We don't want to make users create accounts with us, but instead they sign in using their Google credentials. It's clear to me that we'll need OAuth, but I'm wondering about the OpenID part. Is ther...
