    Pat McFaul commented on OAuth Guide typos

    As I was walking through the steps of the OAuth Guide (http://www.vimeo.com/api/docs/oauth), I found what appear to be typos so thought I'd post them: 1 - Extra encoded '/' at end of the URL in base string In the doc under "Authenticating a User" under "2 Get an Unauthorized Request Token" the base string is listed as: GET&http%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2Foauth%2Frequest_token%2F& ... however since the URL is http://vimeo.com/oauth/request_token and not http://vimeo.com/oauth/request_token/ the base string should be: GET&http%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2Foauth%2Frequest_token& ... without the extra %2F. 2 - Extra encoded '&' at beginning 'HTTP Request Parameter String' in the base string Again in the doc under "Authenticating a User" under "2 Get an Unauthorized Request Token" the base string is listed as: ... %26oauth_consumer_key%3DYourConsumerKey %26oauth_nonce%3Dabcdefghijk %26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1 %26oauth_timestamp%3D1234567890 %26oauth_version%3D1.0 however since these are the query parameters there is no leading '&' needed and should be: ... oauth_consumer_key%3DYourConsumerKey %26oauth_nonce%3Dabcdefghijk %26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1 %26oauth_timestamp%3D1234567890 %26oauth_version%3D1.0 without the extra %26. 3 - Missing the oauth_token parameter In the doc under "Authenticating a User" under "4 Exchange Request Token for an Access Token" the base string and URL are listed as: GET&http%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2Foauth%2Faccess_token%2F& %26oauth_consumer_key%3DYourConsumerKey %26oauth_nonce%3Dabcdefghijk %26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1 %26oauth_timestamp%3D1234567890 %26oauth_verifier%3DYourVerifier %26oauth_version%3D1.0 http://vimeo.com/oauth/access_token ?oauth_consumer_key=YourConsumerKey &oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1 &oauth_timestamp=1234567890 &oauth_nonce=abcdefghijk &oauth_verifier=YourVerifier &oauth_version=1.0 &oauth_signature=YourSignature however both are missing the oauth_token. With the same corrections from above and adding the oauth_token, they should be: GET&http%3A%2F%2Fvimeo.com%2Foauth%2Faccess_token& oauth_consumer_key%3DYourConsumerKey %26oauth_nonce%3Dabcdefghijk %26oauth_signature_method%3DHMAC-SHA1 %26oauth_timestamp%3D1234567890 %26 oauth_token %3DYourAuthToken %26oauth_verifier%3DYourVerifier %26oauth_version%3D1.0 http://vimeo.com/oauth/access_token ?oauth_consumer_key=YourConsumerKey &oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1 &oauth_timestamp=1234567890 & oauth_token =YourAuthToken &oauth_nonce=abcdefghijk &oauth_verifier=YourVerifier &oauth_version=1.0 &oauth_signature=YourSignature Hope this helps!
