Trying to "follow" someone on Twitter using new iOS 5 API, getting 406 return error. Why?
Is my code correct? Need to find out why this isn't working....
- (void)followOnTwitter:(id)sender
{
ACAccountStore *accountStore = [[ACAccountStore alloc] init];
ACAccountType *accountType = [accountStore accountTypeWithAccountTypeIdentifier:ACAccountTypeIdentifierTwitter];
[accountStore requestAccessToAccountsWithType:accountType withCompletionHandler:^(BOOL granted, NSError *error) {
if(granted) {
// Get the list of Twitter accounts.
NSArray *accountsArray = [accountStore accountsWithAccountType:accountType];
// For the sake of brevity, we'll assume there is only one Twitter account present.
// You would ideally ask the user which account they want to tweet from, if there is more than one Twitter account present.
if ([accountsArray count] > 0) {
// Grab the initial Twitter account to tweet from.
ACAccount *twitterAccount = [accountsArray objectAtIndex:0];
NSMutableDictionary *tempDict = [[NSMutableDictionary alloc] init];
[tempDict setValue:@"sortitapps" forKey:@"screen_name"];
[tempDict setValue:@"true" forKey:@"follow"];
TWRequest *postRequest = [[TWRequest alloc] initWithURL:[NSURL URLWithString:@"http://api.twitter.com/1/friendships/create.format"]
parameters:tempDict
requestMethod:TWRequestMethodPOST];
[postRequest setAccount:twitterAccount];
[postRequest performRequestWithHandler:^(NSData *responseData, NSHTTPURLResponse *urlResponse, NSError *error) {
NSString *output = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"HTTP response status: %i", [urlResponse statusCode]];
NSLog(@"%@", output);
}];
}
}
}];
}
All of the code looks correct. Are the parameters incorrect? Is the URL correct? Need some direction here....
Found the answer to my own question... I changed the URL to https://api.twitter.com/1/friendships/create.json and it worked.
Don't forget it's https, not just http.
