I'm trying to make use of various APIs including twitter, youtube, etc because we want to embed recent entries (tweets, videos) on our web开发者_StackOverflowsite.
However, since I'm just retrieving my own data, I'm wondering how I can do this simpler than the multi-step process required by OAuth.
Twitter provides me with my own access token I can use directly, so that kinda works, but I can't find any such token in the YouTube documentation.
So how am I supposed to make use of the api if I just want to get a simple list of stuff? how exaclty am I supposed to authenticate my own website to use my own account?
I think i might have things all wrong and if so please point me in the right direction. I tried using rss feeds but they don't give me as much control over what I retrieve as using the API directly...
any insight or suggestions are appreciated!
see my comment above. summary: it depends on the requirements of the individual api
