QUESTION
I'd like to build an application to query the data in my Yahoo! Fantasy league but can't make it past the 3-legged OAuth authentication and was hoping someone could give me a quick demo, or point me to a relevant tutorial.
I'm willing to use NodeJS, Python or PHP.
I've registered an API and gotten a Consumer Key and Consumer Secret.
Their documentation contains two PHP examples (that I couldn't get to work) and references OAuth.net's list of libaries.
But let's take Python. The rauth documentation only lists the first leg, how am I supposed to complete the other 2 legs?

TL;DR: If you want to access the Yahoo Fantasy API just use this NodeJS tool I've created: https://github.com/edwarddistel/yahoo-fantasy-baseball-reader
If you want to create your own app in NodeJS or PHP however, here's how:
Go to https://developer.yahoo.com/apps/create/, get a
Consumer Key
andConsumer Secret
Put the
Consumer Key
into https://api.login.yahoo.com/oauth2/request_auth?client_id=YOUR-CONSUMER-KEY-GOES-HERE&redirect_uri=oob&response_type=code&language=en-us and Agree to allow access, then grab the authorization codeConstruct the Auth header, a Base64 encoding of CONSUMER_KEY:CONSUMER_SECRET:
QUESTION
I have been using the Yahoo Fantasy Sports API for several years now, but over the last 24 hours, I've been getting server errors. Nothing has changed in my code, and other users are confirming similar issues here. The Yahoo support staff redirected us to their YQL support page, which tells people to post their questions on SO. Has this API been silently killed? Is there a new version?
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Aug-06 at 22:26I ran into this issue and it seems that Yahoo has basically silently deprecated / removed support for oauth, so you have to switch to oauth2 to in order to use many of their APIs.
In my case the yahoo_oauth
python library worked quite well for upgrading to 2.0.
