how to request permission to retrieve user's email using twitter kit version 1.2.0 in ios8?


I have integrated twitter kit in my ios app by following https://dev.twitter.com/twitter-kit/ios/configure this. I could sign-in after authentication and see my twitter name easily but now i want to retrieve my email address so i used TWTRShareEmailViewController which presents user a share email view which returns null. I went through the docs where they mentioned about my app to be whitelisted for requesting email permission and said to fill up this form https://support.twitter.com/forms/platform am not getting what to do next? how to get i user email permission exactly? Suggest any help. Thanks in advance.


Solution

  • I didn't find a specific form to ask to be whitelisted neither. I went on their form link https://support.twitter.com/forms/platform and I checked the "I have an API policy question not covered by these points" option. They responded a few days after and asked me more information about the application and its app ID. I'm actually waiting for their answer.

    EDIT:

    So after several (a lot) emails with [email protected] and a few bugs I finally got whitelisted. But the option is currently unavailable with Fabric so you'll have to create a Twitter app on apps.twitter.com. Just send a mail with your app ID or your keys. They'll probably ask you a quick description of your app and it shouldn't take so much time to be whitelisted. Good luck!
