Result

Originated in
Troi URL Plug-in 5.0
Compatibility
FileMaker Pro 16 to 19
Considerations
This script step provides the second step and completes the authorization.
The plug-in currently only supports the OAuth 1.0A Authorization protocol.
The credentials access_token and access_token_secret need to be stored, to be able to perform requests in the future. Normally you can keep using these two credentials, until the user revokes them (on the web service site). Take care to keep the credentials secret, as they are tied to the userID on the web service.
Example
Set Variable [ $PIN; "123456" ]
Set Variable [ $Twitter_Access_token_step_URL ; "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token" ]
#send the PIN to Twitter to complete the authorization:
Send Authorization PIN URL [ Select ; $Twitter_Result ; "-OAuthProtocol" ; "POST" ;
$Twitter_Access_token_step_URL ; $PIN ]if succesfull $Twitter_Result will be like:
oauth_token=123456-1w4FgHt&oauth_token_secret=SN4M6F99GG&user_id=12345&screen_name=troiSee the example on how to parse this into separate fields.
