Flickr Authentication: msg#00082

web.flickr.api

Subject: Flickr Authentication

I'm trying to use a java program to login in to my Flickr accounts only. The problem I'm having is with the authentication process. I need to be able to run the software without user interaction. I don't mind authenticating the app by hand, storing the token to a database so that I can process automatically in the future, but this method doesn't seem to work.

It seems like I can't get a valid from from flickr unless the user signs in and authenticates that individual session. Is this the case or am I just missing something?

Currently this is my process:
request frob
build auth. link, unless I already have a token stored
make authenticated call... currently recentlyUpdated.

If I don't click the generated auth. link, I get an invalid frob message from flickr.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.
