API end-points works incorrect for users with "_" in login.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I have signed up with my Twitter account. I have "_" in my login.
When I try to call something end-point I get error 500 (INVALID_LOGIN) every 
times. Looks like it is happened because user login can contain only letters or 
numbers.

Please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

Hi Alex. What is the exact http endpoint you are querying?

Hi!

Actually I think that endpoint doesn't matter.

So, I have tried to call shorten endpoint.
Please see my request below:

http://api.bitly.com/v3/shorten?login=alex_oleksenko&apiKey=<MY_API_KEY>=http%3A
%2F%2Fwww.google.com&format=json

Thanks.

Thanks for the details. If you signed up with bitly via your twitter login, 
that is actually not your actual bitly username. You can find your bitly 
username at http://bitly.com/a/your_api_key. (we are looking to improve the 
wording around this as we move more API endpoints to Oauth2)

Thanks.

I have checked and it works fine.

As I understand I cannot use my Twitter username for API calls in any way. Am I 
correct?
Is there any way to get my actual bitly username from my Twitter username via 
some API call?
