Twitter API - Signature - SHA1

Hi,

 

I'm trying to develop algorithm for twitter API - for creating signature: https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/overview/creating-signatures

Do we have something for twitter like this, or is there any macro to calculate HMAC-SHA1 other than calling external program?

 

Thank you

Martin

Here's another simple example. It requires packages "digest" and "base64enc".

Thank you very much for this!

 

 

I was pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to hash a signature in SHA1 for a new API connector I am building

I've downloaded and installed the plugins from your v0.4 Omnibus release but get an "You've found a bug" error from the generic tool...  Thoughts?

Hi there, 

 

I think this could be used for Oauth access to Xero. Forgive dumb question (as I'm an Alteryx newbie) but I couldn't work out how to install your DLLs. 

 

Do you have any install docs? 

 

Thanks

 

Phil.

Hey Mr Free Trader, did you ever get alteryx to connect to xero? I am trying the same thing but getting stuck creating the signature. Care to swap notes?

@Tony_B  , @FreeTrader  did you make any progress on the Xero connection ?  I've thought about it a few times but never put serious effort into it (although it would be very cool to do )

Yes I did! 

 

The guys at Continuum have developed a custom OAuth1 connector which has enabled me to complete the process. I've now hooked up Peoplevox, Magento and Xero, all using Alteryx. The cost savings for ecommerce have been amazing!
