Twitter api statuses/destroy api 401 error

Question

I'm authenticating with OAuth getting my request token, authorizing, doing POST to get the AccessToken and then pulling my user_timeline.xml

At this point I try and call the destroy api on a particular status id and it returns a 401 unauthorized.

I am able to take the url and the parameters out and call this through Fiddler2 and it works, but using it in a Delphi app with Indy V10 component, doing a POST it's giving this 401 still.

What can I be missing?

Thanks, david

If I can figure this out this app is good to go, very frustrating. Please help!

Answer 1

Figured it out. Finally ran a .NET version of code, ran Fiddler2 to see what it did and noticed the Authorization Header. I then had to find a reference to this in regards to the Indy Components to figure it out. You have to add CustomHeaders with a specific format.

Answer 2

You may wanna try my implementation with ICS, supports Unicode as well
