Since the last privacy changes in PSN it is not working anymore. I don't know if it is just my case or everybody's.

It looks like Sony recently implemented reCaptcha for logging in to the PSN mobile application. I think the only way to get around that is to allow users to login using Sony's login form. This is due to the way reCaptcha works and how it detects bots. You cannot simply just cause a checkbox to be checked using a headless browser like phantomjs.

I am currently investigating workarounds on how to obtain oauth tokens. If the tokens expire then your users will need to re-authenticate. It should only be once and a while that you need users to re-authenticate to get fresh oauth tokens. After obtaining the tokens, you should store them securely and then you can have the API make requests on behalf of your users.

As @pcmantinker said, they are enforcing the reCaptcha in every login form they have in their sites. It was implemented, only when you typed your credentials wrong too many times.

Now, we have to implement a workaround for their oauth redirect restrictions because it only allows a redirect to playstation.net or any sony website. I'm thiking of a few ways to fool that but nothing promising.

Yeah i was also looking for a workaround for this.

Let us know if you find anything at all that works.

@pcmantinker or @jhewt any progress on this?

I'm investigating also how we can get around this new restriction on Sony of the reCaptcha on the login, but so far i'm unable to successfully get the token on login.

I'm late to the party. Sad. Sony probably would not expose an official public API soon :|

Guys I started by forking but ends up almost rewrite all the codes. But anyway I get it working now but it's not stable or feature rich. Just bare bone login and get profiles. You can check my fork.

@fakeshadow do you think it will be possible at some point to implement access to user's screenshots?

Have no idea as I'm not familiar with all the API endpoints. I'll keep an eye on it.
Besides that I think it's more practical to use a 3rd party service to implement the feature. Things like social shares or cloud saving are all good alternative.
