Web Service URL String not clear

[Alex Housley]

(Imported from previous Mashery forum)

I've got this:
http://api.rummble.com?method=user.getInfo&format=xml&oauth_consumer_key=[Key]&oauth_signature=[signature]&oauth_token=[token]&version=1.0&oauth_nonce=123456

OK, I have a key emailed to me but should it be in quotes?

I don't know what signature refers to or token?

So I cannot start to use the web service yet.

I have a secret question. Should that be somewhere in that url above?

I suppose a "hello World" example would make it clear without need for
words.

thanks

No quotes are required when forming the API call.

The Rummble API allows the usage of 3 different Signature methods to
follow OAuth standards. More info here:
http://developer.rummble.com/docs/Signature

An access token is required for each logged in API request. More info
here: http://developer.rummble.com/docs/Authentication

Signatures and tokens are one of the trickiest parts of OAuth, so
please let us know if you require further assistance.

No, the secret question just helps you reset your developer account
password.

More code examples and example apps will be provided soon. Watch this
space!
