Ad account video share video doesnt work

[verdeairo703]

So video is uploaded to upload.twitter.com using user 772368 and put additional_owners 702402412854771712.

https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/media/upload-media/api-reference/post-media-upload

so as I tested with the token for both account 772368 and 702402412854771712

twurl -H upload.twitter.com "/1.1/media/upload.json?command=STATUS&media_id=1019498255967637505"
{
	"media_id": 1019498255967637505,
	"media_id_string": "1019498255967637505",
	"media_key": "13_1019498255967637505",
	"size": 5064394,
	"expires_after_secs": 1215511,
	"video": {
		"video_type": "video\/mp4"
	},
	"processing_info": {
		"state": "succeeded",
		"progress_percent": 100
	}
}

So this is fine as I manage to upload to upload.twitter.com and verify with both token that I manage to retrieve the media_id just fine.

Then, as I wanted to create a video website card, I had to make a POST call to the ads-api.twitter.com using the media_id.

https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/ads/creatives/api-reference/videos.html

So since both user has its own adaccount, 772368 is 18ce53ymmtp and 702402412854771712 is 18ce54ahyak, so I had to make 2 separate POST call to the videos endpoint of the ads api.

Using both account token separately I make below call.

//18ce54ahyak 702402412854771712

twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com "/3/accounts/18ce54ahyak/videos" -d "video_media_id=1019498255967637505"
{
	"data": {
		"id": "13_1019498255967637505"
	},
	"request": {
		"params": {
			"video_media_id": 1019498255967637505,
			"account_id": "18ce54ahyak"
		}
	}
}

//18ce53ymmtp 772368

twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com "/3/accounts/18ce53ymmtp/videos" -d "video_media_id=1019498255967637505"
{
	"data": {
		"id": "13_1019498255967637505"
	},
	"request": {
		"params": {
			"video_media_id": 1019498255967637505,
			"account_id": "18ce53ymmtp"
		}
	}
}

As can be seen, both separate call with their own account token return a successful id 13_1019498255967637505. So here is where it gets confusing

Making a get call with 18ce53ymmtp token and 13_1019498255967637505, I managed to retrieve the id

twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com "/3/accounts/18ce53ymmtp/videos/13_1019498255967637505"
{
	"data": {
		"tweeted": false,
		"ready_to_tweet": true,
		"duration": 60067,
		"reasons_not_servable": [],
		"description": null,
		"preview_url": "https:\/\/video.twimg.com\/amplify_video\/1019498255967637505\/vid\/480x480\/L5Yrtj0u4loE9Rbg.mp4?tag=3",
		"id": "13_1019498255967637505",
		"poster_url": "https:\/\/pbs.twimg.com\/amplify_video_thumb\/1019498255967637505\/img\/ZOrMe471WdyFlyJ9.jpg",
		"media_key": "13_1019498255967637505",
		"created_at": "2018-07-18T08:25:00Z",
		"title": null,
		"aspect_ratio": "1:1",
		"updated_at": "2018-07-19T06:57:14Z",
		"deleted": false
	},
	"request": {
		"params": {
			"video_id": "13_1019498255967637505",
			"account_id": "18ce53ymmtp"
		}
	}
}

But, making a get call with 18ce54ahyak token and 13_1019498255967637505, I dont managed to retrieve the id

twurl -H ads-api.twitter.com "/3/accounts/18ce54ahyak/videos/13_1019498255967637505"
{
	"errors": [{
		"code": "NOT_FOUND",
		"message": "13_1019498255967637505 was not found for Account 18ce54ahyak",
		"parameter": "video_id"
	}],
	"request": {
		"params": {
			"video_id": "13_1019498255967637505",
			"account_id": "18ce54ahyak"
		}
	}
}

Is there something wrong in the flow above? Or is this a problem with Twitter?

So my problem arise from uploading a video to an account, then share it.

Then upload to ad account of both account. But cant get to view the result for both ad account.

Will someone help?

Thanks for the detailed information, @verdeairo703.

While it’s true that a video can be Tweeted by both the owner and any additional owners, the video can only be associated with one ads account—the first one that uses the video’s media ID in the POST accounts/:account_id/videos request.

In the use case you mentioned—creating video website cards for accounts with different owners—you would have to upload the video twice.

I hope this helps clarify.

Also, just want to make sure you’re aware of the attributable_user_id field. See:

Announcement: attributable_user_id on POST media/upload

Today we are announcing a new request parameter on the POST media/upload (INIT) endpoint*. First, some context. The Tweet and Scheduled Tweet endpoints allow the authenticated user to Tweet on behalf of another user as long as the appropriate permission has been granted. In the past, creating a Tweet with media has only been possible by using the additional_owners parameter on upload. See this post for details. Every uploaded media asset has an owner, which is always the authenticated user at …
