Just started using the tumblr API, how do I retrieve posts from a private blog? I keep getting a 403, which has forced me to make my blog public unfortunately, I would like to make it private. Thinking I'm not setting a path variable right or something. Thanks guys.

Hi Brian,

If your blog is private, make sure that you're using a fully signed OAuth request, authorized for a user who has access to the blog. Using api_key alone will not work.

Regards,
Mike
