When you have set consumer key and secret it should work fine.
You may wanna try my newer example for Twitter here: http://soenkerohde.com/2010/01/twitter-as3-oauth-lib-with-flex-4-example/

I should add that I am doing this in AIR and have the proper consumer secret and key.

Sonke,

Thanks for the classes.

I’m getting the error “Failed to validate oauth signature and token”. I think it has something to do with the “oauthTokenSecret”, maybe? Does this var need to be set before getSignedRequest() gets called?

var key:ByteArray = Hex.toArray( Hex.fromString(encodeURIComponent(Constants.TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET) + “&” + encodeURIComponent(oauthTokenSecret)));

Hi Michael, I haven’t used Yammer yet so honestly no idea.
But I was in Email contact with Mike and wrote him now that I would like to see his changes.
When I hear back from him I’ll let you know.

Hey Sönke, did you get the library to work with Yammer. I put up an Yammer AS3 API on Github (http://github.com/thanksmister/as3yammerlib) and thought about combining your oauth flow into an example for AIR implementation. One of the comments (from Mike?) mentioned a modification to the library that works with the Yammer service.

Yes (the ones you see under http://twitter.com/apps/ ) that populate consumerKey and consumerSecret .

Did you set a working consumer key/secret which you got after registering your app on twitter?

Thanks for the link, I will check it out. This is what I tried:

oauth = new OAuth(consumerKey, consumerSecret);
var loader:URLLoader = oauth.getRequestToken(“http://twitter.com/oauth/request_token”);
loader.addEventListener(Event.COMPLETE, requestTokenHandler);
loader.addEventListener(IOErrorEvent.IO_ERROR, requestTokenErrorHandler);

I get Error #2032: Stream Error. URL: …
