Flickr API error when oauth

Question

When accepting my flickr app, I get the following error message: "Oops! Flickr doesn't recognise the permission set."

It seems I am not alone with this problem, see Yang and Yun's Album's on this discussion.

Any help very much aprreciated,

Thanks

I ran to the same problem and the solution for me was to add optional "perms" parameter to the authorize request:

http://www.flickr.com/services/oauth/authorize?oauth_token=7...2&perms=write

Hope it will work for you too :)

Flickr documentation indicates that this is an optional parameter, but I cannot get it to work unless I provide it, thanks for sharing! – Drusi

It worked for me too. I'm pretty sure this was optional or it was configured per application, because I had to modify the OAuth library that I have been using before without a problem. – Morello
