Question

I am using Omni auth gem to load twitter feeds into my application.
But when i try to load direct messages, its not letting the application to direct messages.

I researched and found that when adding a twitter account, usually the system takes us to

https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authenticate

but i found my applicatin could access direct message when the request made to twitter during twitter account add process will be like below

https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize

where do i configure this in Omniauth gem?
Please give me a hand on this.

thanks.

Answer 1

This can be done by adding client_options: {authorize_path: '/oauth/authorize'}
under config/initializers/omniauth.rb under provider :twitter.
