What is MySpace?

If you have a profile of “Developer” on MySpace then you will be able to create applications. These can be of 2 types: internal or external. The first are developed to introduce into our profile iframes with our applications, the second type (which we are interested in remaining article) allow us to create ‘Lives App’ or  external applications of MySpace in order to extract information from the API and use it on our websites. This tool is known as MySpaceID.

Implementation:

The first thing we must do is create an application on our MySpace account developers (must have prior permission to develop, this procedure takes about 48hs).

When we have access, go https://developer.myspace.com/community/ -> MyApps -> Create New MySpace Application and choose type.

In ‘external callback’ Enter the URL of our site and remember to save OAuth Consumer Key and OAuth Consumer Secret.

Once created the application must publish, we should see a sign: Status changed to [Live], if this happens we are able to use our site.
