Everyone else that wants it should go star it to remind them that it's

Until the follow request is approved by user A, B is not really
following A. Therefore A can't send a DM to B.
AFAIK, there's not a way to do the follow approval process step via
the API. That step is done in the Twitter UI.

Re: How to accept follow request via API
Thanks for pointing this one.
Does anybody can comment on using requests to the Twitter website (not the
API part) as a API. That would be a workaround to the issue.
Does it break the usage licence or any other Twitter's policy?

How to accept follow request via API
Hi, The problem: User A has his updates protected. User B has his updates public. There is no relation between these users yet. I need to send the direct message from user A to user B. I have credentials of both users. What API invocations should I execute in order to be able to send direct messages from user A to B. (ie how to accept the follow request by API) Thanks in advance, Daniello
Re: How to accept follow request via API
Call http://apiwiki.twitter.com/REST+API+Documentation#create as user B to friend user A. Then call http://apiwiki.twitter.com/REST+API+Documentation#new as user A to send a DM to user B.

Re: How to accept follow request via API
I assumed that a protected user would be able to dm a requesting user but I
guess not.
You can repeat step one switching the users and then it will work.
