should I be able to use it now @BrockAdams . I am continuously getting a "Maintenance on progress" message while trying to login through StackExchange OAuth.
@BrockAdams I understand that has nothing to do with the api call, its just that login is the first thing user will do here and then rest of the things will happen. So, I just thought to bring it to your knowledge. btw thanks for quick response :)
Authorization still works for me, at least in the pre-logged-in, implicit case. Try the recipe in this answer and see if it works for you. IMPORTANT: Just paste those three URLS, sequentially, in your browser, but change the access_token part to what you get in the address bar after the first URL.
OK, If I am not wrong that's for client side authentication. I am doing server side, It says application not configured for implicit grants. @BrockAdams
That example is client side. The first question is does auth work for you at all?. Try that recipe exactly as stated, changing nothing but the access_token.
