[twitter-dev] Trouble generating OAuth signature
Hello all.
I'm trying to write a simple application that sends an update "Hello World"
on behalf of my own twitter account. Therefore, I got my access token and
secret in my dev.twitter webpage and hardcoded it into the code (which I
hided for making it public): http://pastebin.com/n6Ba5nrW
However, I keep getting the following response:
{"request":"/1/statuses/update.json","error":"Incorrect signature"}
I'm doing the whole process by reading this guide:
http://dev.twitter.com/pages/auth
But I just cannot get it to work. What am I doing wrong during the signature
assembly ?
Thanks in advance!

[twitter-dev] Links stripped from tweets
Hi there, I'm fetching the latest tweet from a list of users through /users/lookup in the REST API. I've noticed that all links (commonly tweet pics etc) are stripped from the xpath //users/user/ status/text. Why does twitter strip links and is there a way to reinstate them. Thanks.
Re: [twitter-dev] V2-roadmap access
Let me boil it down to the simplest case. I have a protected account that I want to use to provide notifications to my users (but only my users). I have oauth completely set up to let my users authorize me to their twitter accounts. I can then make their twitter account follow me. Except, since I'm protected, that following request isn't honored until I accept the pending follow requests. Currently there is no 'friendships/accept' type API method so I have effectively done nothing until a human presses the accept button. So since this isn't going to work any time soon via the api, am I likely to get myself banned if I write a bot that periodically logs in and 'clicks' the accept all pending follower requests link that I as a human can see? And by periodically I think I mean once an hour or less.

Re: [twitter-dev] V2-roadmap access
The breadth of functionality we have right now is, unfortunately: GET friendships/incoming http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/friendships/incoming GET friendships/outgoing http://dev.twitter.com/doc/get/friendships/outgoing and the rest of the friendship methods on the API.

Re: [twitter-dev] anywhere link overriding
At the moment, no. You'll need to do that yourself. Not too difficult though, since @Anywhere stamps each link with a class of "twitter-anywhere-user". So, you could iterate over all anchor elements, and if they have that class add the "target" attribute with a value of "_blank". - Todd On Tue, Jun 15, 2010 at 2:44 PM, Furkan Kuru wrote: > > Is there any possibility to change the anywhere links to include > target="_blank" attribute and value in order to open in a new window? > > > > -- > Furkan Kuru >

[twitter-dev] anywhere link overriding

[twitter-dev] Re: Recent Places-related API enhancements & more to come...
I can't really test this right now because geo services are currently
disabled, but does this mean that the geo/reverse_geocode and geo/
search api methods both return "places" in addition to neighborhoods
and cities now? I understand they are all technically "places" but I
mean business entities alongside neighborhoods and cities. Are they
all mixed together now? If so, is there a way to get either business
listings *or* geographic regions?
I understand you guys now own GeoAPI so you're probably coming from a
similar point of view and I realize that their entities are nested, as
in a business is contained within some geographic region, yet both are
considered entities.
Anyhow, as you said, the documentation is kind of light for geo/search
so I'm just a bit confused as to the data that's actually returned.
Unfortunately, the application and service I work on has been using
geo/reverse_geocode for a while now to attach cities (specifically
cities) to tweets that run through our service and we've been planning
to submit our app to Apple tomorrow.
Thank you very much, in advance.

[twitter-dev] Re: oauth status update returning error 401 invalid / used nonce
Hey Craig, Could you let us see what the authorization header you are sending looks like (obfuscating your oauth keys and secrets)? What you're aiming for is a header similar to this: POST /1/statuses/update.xml HTTP/1.1 Accept: */* Connection: close User-Agent: OAuth gem v0.4.0 Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key=\"\", oauth_nonce=\"\", oauth_signature=\"\", oauth_signature_method=\"HMAC-SHA1\", oauth_timestamp=\"1276634179\", oauth_token=\"xx\", oauth_version=\"1.0\" Content-Length: 27 Host: api.twitter.com With your post body being the status you are sending.

[twitter-dev] Search API reporting temporary error
There seems to be something wrong with the search API. It is only returning a tiny subset of what I would expect (after looking at the same query on search.twitter.com for instance) and is reporting the following: "adjusted since_id to 16201119561 due to temporary error" Any word on what this temporary error is, or when it'll be fixed? I'm using the latest build of TweetSharp, if that makes any difference.

It's an incredibly basic issue that's overcomplicated by the particularities of our production environment, the interaction of SSL, and subdomains. I hope to have it fixed by the end of the week.

Re: [twitter-dev] Is there any way to get the tweet conference history at one API?
Quoting Taylor Singletary : If you're looking for all tweets matching a specific hashtag, you'll find that the Search API won't help you too much after the fact, as it only keeps results for tweets from the last 10 days or so (besides Search not being a verbatim representation/search engine for *all* tweets on Twitter). There are many third party integrations that archive tweets, especially those associated with a conference (TwapperKeeper for instance: http://twapperkeeper.com/index.php ) The best way to get all tweets for a conference is by preparing a bit beforehand and using the Streaming API to track the conference's hashtag, consuming tweets as they happen. Taylor Singletary Developer Advocate, Twitter http://twitter.com/episod I've had good luck with TwapperKeeper. When you create an archive, it starts up a Streaming data collection and then does a Search to get whatever history already exists. So if you start early enough, you'll get everything.

Anyone else seeing this or can anyone from Twitter verify that this is happening and that it's going to be resolved? Jamie
Re: [twitter-dev] Keep it real
Hey Abraham, You have been a big part of the life blood on this list. Sad I won't see you around that much. Twitter's dev growth has exploded since I got involved over 24 months ago and ever since then I noticed you have been all over this list and one of the biggest rockstars for the twitter dev community. Almost infamous. I literally seen people seeking you out just to meet you at that dev meet up we had here in SF earlier this year after you tweeted you were there which is pretty epic. You have posted 1154 messages to this list which is just shy from being the top poster (just ~50 behind Al3x from when he was around). That number just blows my mind. You not being here as much will make a huge dent that will be really hard to fill. Hope for the best in your quest for a work and hope we can work on something awesome together someday.

[twitter-dev] elliot haughin oAuth lib
Hello,
Is anyone using elliot haughin oAuth lib for codeigniter? If so, Im having
an issue with $this->twitter->call('friendships/exists' and would love to
know if you have had experienced issues with that as well.
Cheers
Re: [twitter-dev] Keep it real
Thanks a ton Abraham for all your help on this list, you will be missed. As for a possible replacement for Q/A off of this list, has a stackoverflow sort of site been considered? I think this would make a good addition to the dev.twitter.com website. Just an idea.

Re: [twitter-dev] undo retweets in stream api
Various counts are off on Twitter right now, so you shouldn't be
basing much on counts.
If you are following the original tweeter, you get the retweet, but
not the deletion. If you are following the retweeter, you get both the
retweet and the deletion notice. This is due to a limitation in the
deletion message format -- there isn't enough information to route the
message in the first case. This affects several streaming use cases,
and is a known issue that we, eventually, hope to fix the next time
we're in that part of the code.
One workaround, albeit often impractical, is to take the full firehose
and do the correlation on your end.

Re: [twitter-dev] undo retweets in stream api
Yes, the original tweet was not deleted. Some of the retweets were deleted.
Actually we noticed this problem when one of the tweet's retweet count
seemed higher than it was shown in twitter. (both not exceeding 100)
I do not know if twitter acts retweets as a reply-to-user and sends it to
our stream.
so we do not know wheter some of these retweet messages come from the users
whom we do not follow.
But so far, our retweet scores were always smaller than it was shown in
twitter and we thought it was caused because of the fact that we do not
follow everyone that might retweet the tweet.

Re: [twitter-dev] Keep it real
Abraham, Really sorry to hear that we'll be losing you. You have been a HUGE part of this community for many years and have helped countless developers make their way through, at times, really choppy waters. We can't thank you enough for the time and energy you have put into helping developers in the twitter API community grow and please know we are really appreciative of all your efforts. FWIW, we are all in agreement that the mailing list is probably no longer the right tool for the community and are actively looking at other solutions. Any suggestions are welcome.

Re: [twitter-dev] Profile image uploads not working (using twitter-async)
The image upload facilities at Twitter are in need of some love (and are
being worked on!) -- they'll often throw a 500 error and actually update the
image, or show a 500 error and not update the image.. it should, in general,
function better and more reliably in the near future. The current site
issues make it sometimes difficult to have clarity on how something failed,
and at what stage.

I'm trying to upload profile images using oAuth. This basically works
(I get the right return data, no errors), except that the image is not

probably isn't an authentication issue.
As per the twitter-async documentation, I'm using:

$img_path is the correct path (+filename) for the file, I've checked

Re: [twitter-dev] TwitPic oAuth Echo Help! - PHP
One thing to watch out for with OAuth Echo is that you don't actually execute the verify_credentials call yourself when you're building the authorization header for the request -- by doing so, you will have marked the oauth_nonce you used as already processed. Looking at your code, I don't think that's your issue. Your code shows you tacking on the oauth_token to the authorization header, but it needs to be part of your entire signed request. You should be using your oauth_token while building your signature base string, and then use your oauth_token_secret as part of the composite signing key you use to sign the request -- then generate your HTTP header and attach it to the OAuth Echo request to twitpic.

[twitter-dev] undo retweets in stream api
Hello,
In our stream we receive deleted statuses but can not receive undo retweets.
Is undoing a retweet message is different than deleting a status?

[twitter-dev] confirmation about Twitterbot/0.1
Hi Is this useragent actually from Twitter (Twitterbot/0.1)? 128.242.241.133 - - [15/Jun/2010:17:36:29 +0900] "HEAD /support/signup/ null.html HTTP/1.1" 200 - "-" "Twitterbot/0.1" I found a post saying it is probably in Twitter's IPs range. http://www.jongales.com/blog/2010/04/14/whats-twitterbot0-1/ I made a dummy page and tweeted it just once and noticed that the bot has two hits with the same timestamp. In other words two HEAD requests at practically the same time. Heard from another developer that it his site was hit many more times. I'm guessing this might be related to the duplicate tweet posting issue today. http://status.twitter.com/post/699623494/site-availability-issues-due-to-failed-enhancement-of It would be nice to have a contact URL or email address in the user agent when there are issues like this. (a url with info that explains the bot and policy is probably best practice so people know who owns the bot.) - Steve Stephen Rife DIgital Garage http://twitter.com/melobubu

Thanks so much for letting me know! That should've been my first port of

Hi Guys,
I've got an asp.net usercontrol to display twitter feeds.
It requests the xml using this url and then parsing it: "http://
twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml?
screen_name=INSERTUSERNAMEHERE&count=INSERTPOSTCOUNTHERE";
ie "http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml?
screen_name=ladygaga&count=5";
public List GetStatusUpdates(string screenName, int
count)
{
string url = String.Format(StatusesUserTimeline, screenName, count);
//this becomes something like:
http://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline.xml?screen_name=ladygaga
&count=5
string xml = FetchXmlFromUrl(url);
return CreateStatusObjectsFromXml(xml, count);
}
protected virtual string FetchXmlFromUrl(string url)
{
using (WebClient client = new WebClient())
using (Stream s = client.OpenRead(url))
using (StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(s))
{
return sr.ReadToEnd();
}
}
etc etc (if you need more code I can provide)
Just starting over the weekend on most of our sites we're now getting
the response: The remote server returned an error: (502) Bad Gateway
when trying to fetch the xml from the url
just wondering what would cause the 502???
the usercontrol is cached so we don't exceed the request limit..

[twitter-dev] Crossdomain.xml on twitter.com/statuses
Why is crossdomain limiting access only from api.twitter.com and so one. see Thy is it not changing crossdomain for authenticated users? I try do access the rest api over Silverlight, which only works with OOB fulltrust.
