ODS-Briefcase OAuth Ubiquity Authentication Example

The following example demonstrates OAuth authentication, getting the OAuth SID value for an existing ODS-Briefcase — instance mybriefcase with owner demo — on the OpenLink Demo server.

Prerequisites

To successfully execute the example, you must first Generate OAuth Keys for the mybriefcase instance of ODS-Briefcase on the OpenLink Demo server. The four step process is documented here.

You must also be using the Firefox web browser, with the Ubiquity extension installed therein.

Last, you will need to subscribe to the ODS Ubiquity commands by accessing http://demo.openlinksw.com/ods/ods_ubiquity.html. Ubiquity is activated for command execution with the ctrl-space key combination.
