Developers Tumblr ChangeLog Updated

[mrjason]

Hey all,

Notice that John changed the Tumblr API header to point over to developers.tumblr.com, he's posted another update, indicating many issues we're raising are fixed:

http://developers.tumblr.com/post/32002964216/changelog-for-09-21-12

I'm not going to post this kind of post again, I just wanted to make sure other developers know where to be watching for updates.

ChangeLog for 09/21/12

Many of you have been dismayed that you could not override the callback url when a user was attempting to authorize their application. Good news: we’ve patched the bug that was causing this particular issue.

Now, you can pass a url with the oauth_callback parameter and we will redirect the user to that endpoint once you’re done.

Let’s go over a quick example.

When the user is presented with the screen to authorize your app, you should be able to override your default callback with the oauth_callback parameter in your url.

http://www.tumblr.com/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=your_token&oauth_callback=http%3A%2F%2Fmysite.com/oauth_callback/testing

The above url will redirect the user to mysite.com/oauth_callback/testing and let you know if the user has approved or denied your app.

Some more minor fixes:

• The callback parameter is now allowed when making JSONP requests.
• Fixed a bug where the limit parameter was not being respected in the tagged route.
• The /user/queue path now respects limit. You can request up to 50 posts at one time, and the default is set to 20.
• Fixed a bug where post fields were being reset when you edited the post, forcing you to resend the entire post content again. Edits will now only update the field that has changed.
• Updated the docs to reflect that /user/info should be a GET request

Please check out the latest documentation for any further details. If you have any questions or concerns, ourAsk box is always open.

Sorry, by "Tumblr API Header", I mean the documentation header at the top of this page:
