  • The documented URI for buddy authorization management is "/v1/buddyrequest/...". In the request you have posted you are using "/v1/buddyauthorization/..." which is invalid and hence resulting in a 404 Not Found response

  • Hi Vivek,

    Thanks for your reply. Please refer to the example 2.38 in "Buddy List Management" under Yahoo! Messenger API Definitions, there it is mentioned "/v1/buddyrequest/yahoo/adderid?sid=msgrsessionid" like this. I tried "v1/buddyrequest/" this, it is working, I', getting "200", but the buddy is not added.

    Thanks,
    Karthik

  • Karthik,
    Messenger add/authorizations are bi-directional. Adding userA onto userB's buddylist does not mean that userB gets added onto userA's buddylist.

    Authorizing adderId in this manner will only ensure successful completion of the addition of addeeId (you) onto adderId's buddylist. If you want to further pursue the addition of adderId on addeeId's buddylist, you must submit a request using the Group List Management APIs with /v1/group/{groupname}/contact/{network}/{adderId}

    Hope this helps..
