jquery - Twitter OAuth authentication in javascript - Stack Overflow

I have looked everywhere for a good example of a JQuery ajax call to authenticate a use in Twitter using their OAuth method. I read the instructions several times and this is what I have so far, at the moment I am only trying to get the Oauth_Token to send the user to validate. I keep getting the error 401 unauthorized error. I have tried a few binations changing the dataType and couple other things in the ajax call but no success. I believe that the "Create base signature and the Create signature from SHA1 encryption" is correct, but I could be wrong. If anyone has implement twitter OAuth in javascript successfully please let me know how. I am also not interested in using a third party API, I actually want to learn this. Thanks in advance for any help.

Twitter instructions

My code (Javascript)

    //Unix time
    var foo = new Date; // Generic JS date object
    var unixtime_ms = foo.getTime(); // Returns milliseconds since the epoch
    var unixtime = parseInt(unixtime_ms / 1000);

    var callBackURL = "oob"; //oob for now
    var nonce = "12342897";

    //Create Signature Base String using formula
    var baseSign = "POST" + "&" + encodeURIComponent("").toString() + "&"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_callback") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent(callBackURL)
     + "%26"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_consumer_key") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent("*****consumer key**********")
     + "%26"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_nonce") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent(nonce)
     + "%26"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_signature_method") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent("HMAC-SHA1")
     + "%26"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_timestamp") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent(unixtime)
     + "%26"
     + encodeURIComponent("oauth_version") + "%3D" + encodeURIComponent("1.0");

    //Create Signature, With consumer Secret key we sign the signature base string
    var signature = b64_hmac_sha1("********secrete key****************", baseSign);

    //Build headers from signature
    var jsonData = JSON.stringify({
        Authorization: {
            oauth_nonce: nonce,
            oauth_callback: encodeURIComponent(callBackURL),
            oauth_signature_method: "HMAC-SHA1",
            oauth_timestamp: unixtime,
            oauth_consumer_key: "**********consumer key*********",
            oauth_signature: signature,
            oauth_version: "1.0"
        }
    });

    //Request Access Token
    $.ajax({
        url: "",
        type: "post",
        headers: jsonData,
        dataType: "jsonp",
        success: function (data) {
            alert(data);
        },
        error: function (data) {
            alert("Error");
        }

• Did you ever find a solution? I'm having the same problem right now, it would be nice if it was possible. – Gus Commented Mar 8, 2013 at 5:08

I had exactly the same issue. After lose a few hours at the twitter developers page i found this:

https://dev.twitter./discussions/3454

Basicly you can't get the oauth_token this way on the client side. That's why you are always getting error 401.

There's a solution to avoid server side using the 'xauth' (https://dev.twitter./docs/oauth/xauth), but to do so you need to send a detailed message to [email protected] to request xAuth privileges.

The purpose of the 3-leggedo OAuth is to get the user authorise your application's access to the his data. You cannot issue programmatically a Request Token and the an Access Token. The Request Token must be authorised by the user via his browser on a different flow before you can exchange it and get an Access Token.
