Re: OAuth Authentication

[Garry Taylor <taylor.garry@xxxxxxxxx>]

   There are many implementations of OAuth, but generally they *require* a
   web browser, i.e. a real graphical web browser. Some don't though, and
   it depends on the service. Google services often do not need a web
   browser, Twitter has a workaround, but others, like perhaps Dropbox,
   need a web browser and there is no real decent way around it as far as
   I know.
   It depends on the specific service you want to access.
   Cheers

        Hi All,
        HTTPAPI is our tool of choice for processing data obtained via
     web
        services. We love this tool.
        Until now we have been connecting to web services using basic
        authentication, without any problems.
        However, I now need to connect to a RESTFul web service that
     requires
        OAuth authentication, which we have never done before. I would
        appreciate any help in pointing out the necessary steps to
     implement
        OAuth authentication when connecting to a RESTFul web service.
        Thank you.
