Hard code linkedIn account

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi Nabeel,

Is this possible to hard code user name and password of linkedIn account so
that the user doesn't have to go to the authorization page to grant the app
authorization???

Hi Quyen
You cannot get the username and password from the API and you shouldn't 
hardcode it.
Instead try saving access token and access token secret in some database (or 
hardcode
it). You can use that access token to call any API method without going through 
the
authorization page. The user will only need to grant authorization to the 
application
once.

Hope that helps.

Hi Nabeel,

Thanks for your suggestion. I think that is a good idea. I want to launch the
authorization page automatically when running the OAuthAuthentication process,
instead of copying the link and pasting it to a browser. Then after the user 
grants
the application, the pin is retrieved automatically from the application. Can I 
do it
from the API???

Thanks,
Quyen
