Mainframe access to Facebook data [closed]
I am working on a request t开发者_运维技巧o allow our Unisys mainframe users to access their Facebook data from non-GUI terminals. Based on the "no scraping, no automation" Facebook terms-of-service, and the way Facebook's oAuth authentication works, I don't see how the mainframe software can log on to the user's account to access/update their data.
Does Facebook support any kind of authentication that does not require a person sitting at a GUI screen?
Rod,
The thing that stopped me was the OAUTH code. Twitter (and I believe Facebook) allow an API connection via OAuth. You have to create the callback and use the Unisys CryptoAPI to handle some digest creation. Another way I did it was to use the MCP JProcessor and implement it on that front, but I am sure you are looking for an ALGOL way to do it. If you have a need to add the OAUTH code and can handle the special SHA2-256 it would work from ALGOL.
Sorry. No. They don't offer this.
