Multi tool use

tumblrwks - receiving 401 on Post

I am able to post to Tumblr from an iOS app that I created and would like to do the same from a node.js app.

My initial test case is have a nodeJS app use the same consumerKey, consumerSecret, accessToken, and accessSecret values that are successful in the iOS app.

But, the node.js app, using tumblrwks, fails with a 401 error.

Note that I am able to get data using the node.js app, which does not require authentication.

I wonder if this is a valid test case, using the same credentials as the iOS app, or do I have to register the nodeJS app separately?

The nodeJS app will be used as part of a batch process, not having user interaction, which is why I would like to use the same credentials as the iOS app.

My thinking is to accept authorization from the user using the iOS app, save that authorization info to a database, which would be leveraged by the nodeJS Below is the sample code used for posting.

Any help would be appreciated.

const Tumblr = require('tumblrwks');

var tumblr = new Tumblr({
consumerKey: "******",
consumerSecret: "*****************",
accessToken: "******************",
accessSecret: "******************"
}, "********.tumblr.com"
);

tumblr.post('/post', {type: 'text', title: 'tumblrwkstesting', body: '<h3>should work!! </h3>'})
.then(json => {
console.log(json);
})
.catch(error => {
console.log(error);
});
