2011-08-01 Thread DaveH
I am wondering if there are any companies that are providing access to user streams as SaaS. I am looking for a service that will allow me to setup filters specifically I only want DMs and I would want the service to call my application via a callback URL when a DM is received. I have spent the

Twitter Team: My application was changed weeks ago to request DM permission. My understanding was all we needed to do was edit the settings for the app, and then re-authenticate the application. Which I did. When I look at the app settings it shows that Read, Write, Direct Messages is selected.

[twitter-dev] Re: Update on Whitelisting

2011-02-12 Thread DaveH
I disagree, Abraham. I requested whitelisting for my app because I needed more than 250 DMs per day. Twitter granted my request and my limit was increased considerably. This may be that Twitter did not increase DMs as a default. But at one time, if requested and justified, they would. This is why

Dossy: Don't be so quick to condemn. I have an app that uses DMs and ALL DM traffic is generated by users and they know it--so there is no spamming. There are legitimate uses of DMs that users are OK with that push an app beyond 250/day. Think of it this way, if an application has 300 followers

Change the message so that it can go into their activity stream instead of a DM. It may be that you have less information, but a @storeowner, You just received an order is better than nothing. Granted with DM you could include more information, but at least a generic message would suffice to have

2011-02-11 Thread DaveH
I too am still worried about the DM limits. If I understand the User API correctly. - The user stream means that an unlimited number of DMs can be received as there is no rate limit on receiving (consuming) of data. - The application would send DMs via the REST API and therefore is limited to

Yes, Do tell. I have a whitelisted app, but came to the realization that I needed to switch to IP based so that all users of the application would have a higher DM limit--critical as my app is a social learning tool for mobile users. Now it looks like my project is dead in the water. Having each

Peter: You mention 150/hour so I am guessing that you are not authenticating with Twitter. This means that if there are any other applications sharing the same IP address (shared hosting) then they are also using the same rate limit as your app. If you authenticate you will get the 250/hour
