Twitter Application Token Expires

Question

I am connecting to twitter application and fetching the oauth token values and storing in database. I have found that the token values expires and each time I logs in with twitter i get a new token values.

I am searching for offline_access which is provided by facebook.

Please help me out, if anyone has faced the same issue.

Thanks in advance

Answer 1

Are you storing the Token Key and Secret or Access Key and Secret? The Token key is temporary and should not need to be stored in a database. It is used once to get a permanent Access Key and Access Secret.

See this link for the full OAuth flow. See this link for the OAuth RFC.
