API use

[TiagoApostolo]

Hi! I need to use the api to an iOS app, to show the posts. I didn't understand how can I get access to it. Need some help.

@TiagoApostolo http://api.producthunt.com/v1/docs should be a good starter let me know if you have more questions

andreasklinger, thanks but I didn't get how can I have an access token. I have this: {"error":"unauthorized_oauth","error_description":"Please supply a valid access token. Refer to our api documentation about how to authorize an api request. Please also make sure you require the correct scopes. Eg \"private public\" for to access private endpoints."}'

I only need it to a simple app to school.. :)

[andreasklinger]

go here: https://www.producthunt.com/v1/oauth/applications

create an app and a developer token

pick any endpoint from here: http://api.producthunt.com/v1/docs

eg

https://api.producthunt.com/v1/posts/all?search[url]=https://blokdust.com this will show you all posts that relate to the url https://blokdust.com

be sure to include these headers:

Accept: application/json
Content-Type: application/json
Authorization: Bearer <your developer token from before

now you can create a simple html page with a form asking for an URL to check you server just needs to ping our API and see if there is a response (show the link) or not

if you have more questions feel free to reopen

@andreasklinger It is a iOS app, so what should be the redirect URL in "create a application"?

Getting the same issue even after providing the developer token in Authorization header
