Not all applications have access to a web view so this can be used as a substitute.

Please note, the preferred method of validating a request token is to have a user authenticate the request via the TMDB website. You can read about that method here.

If you decide to use this method please use HTTPS.

This would replace step 3 from the How do I generate a session id? guide.
