    Hello JB.

    I saw the document and found the following message.
    "Before you can start making Yahoo! API requests, you need to sign up and submit some details about your application. "

    I want to acquire consumer_key/secret used with oauth.
    Where can I acquire the value?
    Is the registration form of OAuth different from that of BBAuth?

    Thank You.

    Ryo, we've just anabled registration for OAuth based Apps. Get started by registering your application from your Y! Developer Network dashboard: https://developer.yahoo.com/dashboard/ (click on the New Application button in the OAuth Applications section).

    Hi Mike.

    Thank you for telling me about a start of registration.
    I will begin the development of the application using your APIs.

    I hope that a lot of applications using API of Yahoo! are developed.

  • Anyone managed to get a request token? I can't get it to work.
    I do get the "page not found" error but I think it is because we are using some bad variables, can anyone advise ?
