---+Weblog OAuth REST API Example performed with the Virtuoso OAuth Testing Tool

The following example demonstrates creating and getting contact info by the ODS REST APIs *weblog.post.new* and *weblog.post.get* using the OAuth Test Tool. Full list of the ODS REST APIs for ODS Weblog you can find [[VirtuosoOdsControllersWeblog][here]].

   1. Go to http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods
   1. Log in as user demo with password demo
   1. Go to Settings->OAuth Keys
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/o1.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. Copy the Token value for an Weblog instance or create such in not existing. For ex.: 150fd483a3219e09847676deebae6c725d5a0a03
   1. Go to http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/oauth_test.vsp
   1. In the shown form enter for:
      1. *Server*: http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/api
      1. *Consumer Key*: 150fd483a3219e09847676deebae6c725d5a0a03
      1. *API method*: weblog.post.new
      1. *API parameters*: 
<verbatim>
inst_id=44&description=my test&title=my first post
</verbatim>
         * An easy way to get the instance id is using the [[VirtuosoOdsControllers][ODS Framework Controller]]  <b>instance.get.id</b>:
<verbatim>
$ curl -i "http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/api/instance.get.id?user_name=demo&password_hash=4627dhe23cb53f522eag32e09gs7fceaw2c523449bdfdf&instanceName=demo's%20Weblog"
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
Server: Virtuoso/06.03.3131 (Linux) x86_64-generic-linux-glibc25-64  VDB
Connection: Keep-Alive
Date: Sun, 05 Feb 2012 21:01:20 GMT
Accept-Ranges: bytes
Content-Type: text/xml; charset="UTF-8"
Content-Length: 58

<result>
  <code>44</code>
  <message>Success</message>
</result>
</verbatim>
         * You can also get the instance id using the [[VirtuosoOdsUbiquity][ODS Ubiquity commands]] sequence:  
<verbatim>
ods-host http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods
ods-set-mode sid
ods-authenticate-user demo password demo
ods-get-instance-id demo's Weblog
</verbatim>
      1. Select for *Query options*: "Generate URI and Submit".
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow1.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. Click the "Execute" button.
   1. In the shown authorization form click the "Authorize" button.
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow2.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. As result will be shown the generated URI and the output message of executing the ODS REST API. In our case, the id of the new created post will be: 37
      * <img src="%ATTACHURLPATH%/ow3.png" style="wikiautogen"/>
   1. Now lets get the data for the created post. In the form enter:
      1. *API method*: weblog.get
      1. *API parameters*: post_id=37
      1. Select for *Query options*: "Generate URI and Submit".
   1. Click the "Execute" button.
   1. As result in the "Response Body" text-area will be shown the retrieved details for the posts with the given above id.
