Nokia Friend View is an experimental micro-blogging tool with integrated location features.

The information below is preliminary and unofficial and home-brewed doesn't come from Nokia.

Authentication

If you POST with username and password:

curl -L -c friendview-cookies.txt -D - -d "j_username=USERNAME&j_password=PASSWORD" \ 
https://friendview.nokia.com/j_acegi_security_check 

you will get returned, on success, an HTML document out of which you can parse a Session Token:

<script>sessionToken='55b5509d793faedd'</script>

Posting Status Updates

Once you have authenticated, status updates can be sent by HTTP POST to:

https://friendview.nokia.com/Map.action?postStatusMessage

with the following parameters:

  • messageText - the text of the status update
  • sessionToken - the value of the sessionToken parsed as above
