I came across this oAuth library for ActionScript 3.0. http://code.google.com/p/oauth-as3/

It seems to have all that you need to do oAuth, but I can’t make heads or tails of it. I’ve never worked with oAuth (or any authentication..) before and am not really sure how to use it. I can’t find any examples of this specific library, or any in general concerning oAuth and AS3.

Would anyone mind walking me through (or directing me to a tutorial) concerning how to use oAuth to interact with Web API’s? Specifically I’m looking for ActionScript 3.0 interacting with Twitter.

Any help is much appreciated!

    I don’t usually like to post answers that just contain links but unfortunately, given the nature of the question and thus the answer, I think it’s about the only choice here.

    First I just want to say, try harder with googling next time. Many results came up first try.

    Second, there seems to be two google code repositories for this. Just in case you’re interested, here is a link to the second one (you provided a link to the first) http://code.google.com/p/oauthas3/. This repository has code which is newer than the repo you referenced.

    Third, here are some links to articles/tutorials about this library which should provide all the help you’ve requested:

    http://soenkerohde.com/2010/01/twitter-as3-oauth-lib-with-flex-4-example/
    http://www.iotashan.com/index.php/2008/04/28/oauth-actionscript-library/

    Note also this question and answer here on stackoverflow: Pinless OAuth on Adobe AIR for Android. It has some code and discussion about the library, so I’ve referenced it here as well.
