I am trying to practice the examples in the book "mining the social web". Unlike the applications I had created in twitter and facebook, the Oauth token and secret in the linkedin never show up. I only see my client ID and client secret.
by the way, since I do not have any personal url, can someone explain to me what is the appropriate URL I should enter? In the twitter and facebook applications, I just randomly entered some URL, like www.twitter.com, and it worked. In this application for linkedin, I entered www.linkedin.com, but no Oauth token comes out.
I know this question is too basic for you guys, sorry for posting this. I did google the solution for a while, but it seems like no one has ever posted this question.
You can't directly get an OAuth Token. You have to follow the authentication procedure to receive an OAuth Token.
Steps involved:
- Configure your LinkedIn application with a valid callback url which your server is listening to.
- Request an Authorization Code
- Exchange Authorization Code for a Request Token
This LinkedIn link will help you on what parameters to send in each request and the URL for the same. https://developer.linkedin.com/docs/oauth2
