MyXavier is using a Twitter-like API which means that most Twitter applications should work find even with MyXavier, you just need to make sure your application use myxavier.com/api instead of twitter.com.

Since MyXavier is based on StatusNet open source software you can also find an explanation of the API at http://status.net/wiki/TwitterCompatibleAPI, but we will try to go thru the basics at this page.

Authentication

The MyXavier API is using HTTP Basic Authentication for verification. That means that if you've signed up or are only using OpenID to sign in you will not be able to use some of the functions of this API.

Location of the API

The API is located at http://myxavier.com/api/ (you can't visit this page since you will just get an error message), so all your requests to the API should start with myxavier.com/api to work.

A couple of examples:

• Public time line: http://myxavier.com/api/statuses/public_timeline.xml
• Status message: http://myxavier.com/api/statuses/show/123.xml
• Friend time line: http://myxavier.com/api/statuses/friends_timeline/[username].rss
