Unable to access private list statuses

[Kiran]

Hi,

I have been using twitter API from the fast few months in numerous
iPhone Apps. I just started using lists in one of my apps and facing
problems with private lists. Able to get response for public lists
successfully and getting "Not found" error for private lists.

I have two lists test and private which are public and private
respectively. When I try to get public list statuses I am getting the
response. For private list it is giving this error

Request : http://api.twitter.com/1/CliqueDemo/lists/private/statuses.xml

Response:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<hash>
<request>/1/CliqueDemo/lists/private/statuses.xml</request>
<error>Not found</error>
</hash>

Am I doing something wrong or need to do something more for private
lists ?.

Thanks in advance for the help.

Regards
Kiran

Are you authenticating when making the call to a private list? If you
aren't authenticated as the creator of a private list you will get a
404 on this call.

Hi,

Thanks for the reply. I am the creator of the list and I am providing
the authentication information too.

Thanks

I have the same problem.
Cannot access private list statuses. (I'm the creator of the list and
I am providing the authentication info)

Same behavior in the browser:
- if I first go to http://twitter.com/my_user/lists/my_private_list/statuses.json,
I get the not found error. (the browser doesn't request a user/pass at
all)
- if I first go to http://twitter.com/my_user/lists.json, the browser
asks me for user & pass, I can see the result and then I go to /
my_private_list/statuses.json and now it works (until the browser
session ends).

Can you please fix this? :)
And you should probably change "Requires Authentication" to
"true" (for private lists):

Thanks.
