Sending extra parameters to twitter's oauth/authorize


I want to send some extra parameters to twitter's oauth/authorize endpoint (along withoauth_token) and get them back as it is in the callback request (along with oauth_token and oauth_verifier). For example:

request(extra parameter - app_name):

https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=FxHxpekZK8VVfNRr38i2WKJskIZY3Hj7&app_name=myTwitterApp

callback request should be(extra parameter returned as it is - app_name):

http://www.example.com?oauth_token=FxHxpekZK8VVfNRr38i2WKJskIZY3Hj7&oauth_verifier=Vq0yq2LRUBybevnjGvXyUOBPWH9Ew9DY&app_name=myTwitterApp

Please let me know if this doable in twitter as it is in Google and Facebook.


Solution

  • Asked this question on twittercommunity and got the answer. The trick was to add the extra parameters in the callback url itself while obtaining the request token.
