How to send direct messages from an application's screen_name via OAuth (Twitter)?

First of all, if you want your application to interface with Twitter, you have to register it first. The Twitter Document explains exactly how this is done.

First of all, if you want your application to interface with Twitter, you have to register it first. The Twitter Document explains exactly how this is done. Once you have this, follow the OAuth version 1 Authorization protocol in getting an Access Token.By having an access token, you can essentially call Twitter protected resources.

The full protocol (given on link above) shows you how to achieve this. The console can easily bypass the OAuth protocol since you've authenticated through Twitter (which OAuth calls, the service provider). OAuth allows only the service provider to do client credential authentication.

I hope this helps.

So basically I just need to store the access token granted by Twitter for my application's screen name. Then I can call the direct message resources whenever I need to. – Robert Klubenspies Dec 1 '10 at 17:03 the screen_name is the twitter name of the user you want to send the direct message to.

Access Token is to allow you to send direct messages on twitter. – The Elite Gentleman Dec 1 '10 at 17:24.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
