So I'm working with the Twitter API. My code looks like this:
public ActionResult AuthorizeTwitter()
{
Response.Redirect(GetRequestToken());
return View();
}
private string GetRequestToken()
{
var twitter = new Twitter(consumer, consumerSecret, oauth_token, oauth_token_secret);
twitter.BaseURI = requestUrl;
var result = twitter.GetRequest("http://localhost:60707/Twitter/GetAccessToken");
string[] resultArray = result.Split('&');
twitter.RequestToken = resultArray[0].Split('=')[1];
twitter.RequestTokenSecret = resultArray[1].Split('=')[1];
var requestToken = Session["oauth_token"] = resultArray[0].Split('=')[1];
Session["oauth_secret"] = resultArray[1].Split('=')[1];
string redirect = authorizeUrl + requestToken;
return (redirect);
}
public ActionResult GetAccessToken()
{
string verifier = Request.Params["oauth_verifier"];
string token = Request.Params["oauth_token"];
string secret = Session["oauth_secret"].ToString();
.....
}
I set the Session["oauth_secret"] in my GetRequestToken method and when I debug I see it fine.
However, when I get down to GetAccessToken, that value is no longer there and Session is null. Why is this?
Also, a related question, should I be keeping these values in Session?
Are there any problems with doing this and is there a better way to do it?
