Twitter's REST API returns a in_reply_to_status_id value for tweet statuses, yet the Search API does not.

So I'm adding a "sign in with Twitter" button onto my web site. I display the twitter sign in in a popup window.

The problem is after twi...
For the iPad imaging app I am writing I have include the ability to email a friend or send a Twitter tweet for world-of-mouth marketing.

I am developing an application on Twitter. And Twitter is giving me response of 400 on random times. I am in panic. Their servers are too bad to entertain requests. I am hitting their REST URL to get followers with cursor. Some times I get first 100 followers and on second cursor iteration I got HTTP 400. Only one attempt gave me my 3...

A good example of a site that does this is Answers.com, on the homepage they have a set of buttons, and each button gives a simple pop up window to confirm the connection. I know that I can implement each connection individually, bu...

I'm trying to write a script to follow people on twitter. The tweepy API seems pretty good, but I'm running into some unintuitive behavior related to the mapping from user's ids to their screen names. In [1]: import tweepy In [2]: api = tweepy.API() # get an arbitrary tweet In [3]: tweet = api.search("anything")[0] In [5]: tweet.text...
I'm trying to connect to the Twitter API via an AS3 app, but I keep getting Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token When I try URLRequest("https://api.twitter.com/oauth") it at least loads something and calls my Event.COMPLETE listener. Can Flash just not connect to the Twitter API without a third-pa...

We just finished implementing OAuth in our RoR application using the Twitter gem. The whole authentication process works perfectly and we are able to persist access tokens. We're wondering if there's a way for our de-authorize our access to twitter via our website. I realize we could just destroy the persisted token, but I'd also like to...

I got oauth working fine with twitter in my GWT app. However, when I use Window.open() to try and do the oauth flow, get a successful oauth, and twitter redirects the newly opened window to my callback url, I have an issue. The only way I can see to close the window is to use JSNI and call $wnd.close(). After I close the window I am u...
I'm having a pretty bizarre and frustrating problem with Twitter's API. The oauth process is working just fine locally but once I put the site on heroku it automatically adds the url of the testing server and redirects to a broken page. This is the code: def oauth oauth = Twitter::OAuth.new('*','*') request_token = oauth.requ...
