Can anyone who can give me a step by step instruction on downloading my twitter public time line using Silverlight 4.0?
I already have a consumer key, consumer secret, token and token secret.
Thank you in advance/.
I used LinqToTwitter library. It is quite scenarios complete and it lets you query Twitter in Linq style.
im sure Twitter has an API. Go download it, read its documentation.
The best case scenario is if twitter exposes a web service. then things would be trivial implementing it in SL 4.

I need to make some Jira REST calls in my web API application. But I have encountered difficulties around creating authentication using Oauth 2.0 according to documentation below:
https://developer.atlassian.com/cloud/jira/service-desk/oauth-2-authorization-code-grants-3lo-for-apps/
I need help on how I can call the step 1 of the above documentation in postman and subsequently, in my code to obtain the authorization code without going through a browser to paste this link below, as I am working with a backend web API application.
https://auth.atlassian.com/authorize? audience=api.atlassian.com& client_id=YOUR_CLIENT_ID& scope=REQUESTED_SCOPE_ONE%20REQUESTED_SCOPE_TWO& redirect_uri=https://YOUR_APP_CALLBACK_URL& state=YOUR_USER_BOUND_VALUE& response_type=code& prompt=consent
I hope to get suggestions as this has been a blocker for me for days. Thanks.
How create base64 key and added in this project , or what i pass in header id password in unity Webrequest by which access a restful api of agora , please help me .
Can you elaborate what RESTful APIs you are trying to use here? For the client side logic, the SDK should have sufficient set of API methods provided by the agora engine. If there is something that is only available in the RESTful API, it is probably better to implement on your Server side of the code.
This documentation contains the information about the RESTful APIs.
Have done a lot of search and reading over the WEB but could not come to any conclusion yet.
We are planning to develop a list of API's (planning to use ASP.NET WEB API). One of the business goals is to package the API and selling/licensing the Packages/API to end users.
Some thoughts that came to consideration:
Using Authorisation Filters to do check against database, if the user requesting the API has access to it or not. Not very sure of the implementation details yet even on this approach.
Are there any better suggestions or ideas or any open source libraries that we can go with?
What are the possible recommendation or best practices to achieve this.
Thanks in advance.
Please take a look at the following links. Hopefully, they help.

How to secure an ASP.NET Web API
I'm working on segregating the authentication part of my ASP.net MVC4 application using DotNetOAuth 2.0, Which will means that one project will do only authentication and send out response,based on response it will have access to other application.
The Idea is to get any application or project added later on use one common authentication process.
First thing came to my mind was building a service, in the process a read a lot about Web API and think it can help to achieve what I'm looking for.
Please suggest if you guys have implemented something like this or whats's the best practice.
Should i go with API or service, any link or sample to direct is appreciated
ASP.NET Web API is also a service - a RESTful service. The choice of using a "Service" although is good your underlying authentication platform will define what you should be using.
WCF is much more than a web service where as a Web API is pure HTTP service.
If you expect all your "applications" to be web based then there is no reason why this cannot be a Web API.
This article might be something that should help you decide on your authentication model: http://www.asp.net/web-api/overview/security/external-authentication-services
I'm trying to use the new WCF Web API Preview 6 with Basic Authentication. But don't really know where to begin.
zanewill apparently had the same issue:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8304367/how-to-use-basic-authentication-with-wcf-web-api
But the question is not a dup. I'm using this with mvc and don't really see how
Wcf Basic authentication
should apply?
I've tried out this:
http://cacheandquery.com/blog/2011/03/customizing-asp-net-mvc-basic-authentication/
But can't get it to work.
Should there not be an official solution from MS?
I have to note, that we are using our custom membership provider and that I basically just wanna pass an API token to the service. So the built in Windows Basic Authentification cannot be used.
I actually figured out a way myself. I've built my custom HttpOperationHandler and combined it with an Attribute, so I get a similar functionality as the MVC AuthorizeAttribute.
You can have a look at the solution here:

I think the recommended approach is to implement custom message handler. See my blog post for an example that works with ASP.NET Web API RTM:
