[twitter-dev] Re: Getting Not Found when trying to Delete List subscription using list id and oauth

[Mark Ellul]

Hi Mark,

Thanks for your response.

I realized it had to be the user who owned the list... and yes I know
you cannot delete members or subscribers for other ppl's lists...

But I am working on a list social network... which will be going live
next week!

Regards

Mark

 Mark, you can't delete (or add) members from lists owned by other
 users.  In this case the reason you're getting a 404 is because the
 list 561510 owned by user mark_ellul doesn't exist.

  HI,

  I have code working to remove subscriptions using list uris working,
  but have a use case where I need to delete a subscription with the
  list id.

  /1/mark_ellul/561510/subscribers.json?.. where mark_ellul is my
  name, and 561510 is the list I am trying to unsubscribe from (which is
  owned by another user)... should it be the user who owns the list
  name, and it will unsubcribe the authenticate user?

  Can someone please update this page, its totally off, showing the
  wrong url, and return values (DELETE) doesn't return anything normally
  (I think).

  Any clarification would be appreciated

[twitter-dev] newb question: Rate Limiting

[Mark Ellul]

Hi,

I am working on a web application where we make twitter api calls
using a oauth authenticated user.

If I do the calls on the users behalf, using their oauth token and
secret from my web server. Does it use the user's rate limit or the
application's rate limit?

Any help would be appreciated

Regards

Mark
