What do I need to do to get a devId?
Getting your devId is easy and free. Anyone who is a registered user on dev.aol.com is eligible for a Developer ID. For a user account, if you do not have an AOL or AIM screen name, you will be prompted to get one (it’s free and only takes a few seconds). Once you have a user account on dev.aol.com, here’s all you need to do to obtain your devId: • Agree to the Terms of Service (TOS) • Provide us with two bits of information about yourself (your name and email) and a couple of items about where/why you want to use the devId.(the destination URL , namely, the URL of the website where you want to use this devId and what you want to use it for). AOL will issue you a Developer ID (devid) and/or confirm the application of your pre-existing Developer ID specifically for use on the specific site you registered. • Get an ID for each site • The URL must match so that Open Auth calls will work • You can edit the ID to change the URL if required.
