        "GET",
        "https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=nikestore&count=1550&exclude_replies=true&trim_user=true",

The Streaming API now requires OAuth 1.0A to connect. Make sure that you’re using an access token and signing your requests.

JetJogos · 2013-06-12T20:28:00.000Z

When I call this:

URL url = new URL("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json");
	HttpURLConnection connection = (HttpURLConnection) url.openConnection();           
    connection.setDoOutput(true); 
    connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
    connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Bearer xxxxxx%xxxxx");
    connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8"); 
    connection.setRequestProperty("charset", "utf-8");
    
    DataOutputStream wr = new DataOutputStream(connection.getOutputStream());
    wr.writeBytes("screen_name=jetjogos");
    wr.flush();
    wr.close();
    
    connection.connect();
    
    BufferedInputStream reader = new BufferedInputStream(connection.getInputStream());
    int letra = 0;
    StringBuffer arquivoTmp = new StringBuffer("");
    while ((letra = reader.read()) != -1) {
        arquivoTmp.append((char)letra);
    }
    System.out.println(arquivoTmp);
    reader.close();
    
    connection.disconnect();

I have this error:

Server returned HTTP response code: 500 for URL: https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json

Could somebody help-me ??

episod · 2013-06-12T20:33:10.000Z

While you shouldn’t be getting a 500 in response, it looks like you’re using a POST here – read-based methods like statuses/user_timeline should be performed with a GET.

Also – be careful not to post your keys (including bearer tokens) on a public forum.

JetJogos · 2013-06-12T20:38:11.000Z

Thanks a lot… Now it works… And about bearer token, you are right… I invalidated that one now.

anyone to update twitterVB?

darkpoltweeter · 2013-06-12T22:54:00.000Z

Hi can someone help me.

I have a PHP script that is using a very common twitter / oAuth class to authenticate me before making a request and its been changed to https://api.twitter.com/1.1/ so should in theory work.

A lot of Wordpress Twitter plugins use this Twitter/oAuth class and I just changed the line 29

/* Set up the API root URL. */ public $host = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/";

This solved my issue with my own Twitter Wordpress plugins but with my scripts that are run by CRON jobs it doesn’t seem to work.

I have a script that is basically trying to get a list of my followers (a simple Direct Message - hello BOT) and then send out a tweet to the new people.

However even though oAuth is saying I am authenticated and connected with my consumer and access keys/secrets I cannot get back a list of my followers and keep getting a response like this.

{“errors”:[{“message”:“Bad Authentication data”,“code”:215}]}

The URL I am trying to use is (a cut down) > https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/list.json?screen_name=darkpoltweeter

So even though the oAuth class is saying I am authenticated ( and yes I have an application setup for doing this and I have checked the consumer/access keys/secrets ) I cannot get a JSON response back.

Even if I just login to Twitter with my logon and try to access that URL I get the same response.

My debug is the following

load twitter
load oauth
init class
OAuthToken loaded
loaded twitter class
connect with access token = BLAH-BLAH and secret = BLAHBLAHBLAH
VERIFY ACCOUNT WITH OAUTH
Connected as @darkpoltweeter
check for new followers
got a response from https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/list.json?screen_name=darkpoltweeter
body = {“errors”:[{“message”:“Bad Authentication data”,“code”:215}]}

I have tried using a simple file_get_contents, CURL, fsock etc and at the moment I am using the inbuilt TwitterOAuth method http e.g

$followers_url = "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/list.json?screen_name=darkpoltweeter"; $response = $oauth->http($followers_url,"GET");

However nothing seems to work. From the documentation this URL should be giving me the right list of followers if I am authenticated (which the oAuth class is telling me I am) so I don’t know what I need to be doing that I’m not at the moment.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Glad I didn’t have anything planned tonight. Now I can learn how to program something to replace the RSS feed in Thunderbird. This must be the week of fail for big American tech companies.

mariajoyce4889 · 2013-06-13T07:09:00.000Z

I was using REST API v1 and was successful getting the list of followers using a screen name !
But after it retired ! I am not able to get the list of followers using the below mentioned url :

https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/ids.json?cursor=-1&screen_name=mariajoyce4889&count=5000

It says : 400 "{“errors”:[{“message”:“Bad Authentication data”,“code”:215}]}

I have googled out , checked discussions regarding the same ! But couldn’t trace out the loop-hole where the problem is lying !

Can anyone please suggest & guide me a solution to this problem !

Thanks in advance,
Maria Joyce !

how to get followers list in twitter API v1.1

octal_ashish · 2013-06-13T09:03:59.000Z

hi please help us how to integrate API 1.1 in my android app.

varshneyravi · 2013-06-13T12:23:02.000Z

Can anyone tell me how we can use statuses/retweet/:id with API v1.1

luzparet · 2013-06-13T17:00:43.000Z

why this code does not work?

$toa = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, $ROW[‘tw_user_access_token’], $ROW[‘tw_access_token_secret’]);

$followers = $toa->get('followers/ids', array());
$friends = $toa->get('friends/ids', array());

foreach ($followers->ids as $i => $id) {

    if (empty($friends->ids) or !in_array($id, $friends->ids)) {
        $ret = $toa->post('friendships/create', array('user_id' => $id));
		if ($i++ > 20) break;
		sleep(rand(3,30));
    }

}

Johandorper · 2013-06-14T08:37:13.000Z

I had the same problem and created a public service that can form a bridge between your app and the Twitter API. Create your access token at: http://livetweets.johandorper.com after that you can use the token URL and the Token to retrieve tweets as before. It uses your own Twitter app, so it enables you to use the Twitter API 1.1 in combination with Jquery JSONP requests!

cjsoftlab · 2013-06-14T09:22:59.000Z

I couldn’t agree more…

cjsoftlab · 2013-06-14T09:29:43.000Z

Have you been able to fix that? I’m experiencing the same problem…

Gostaria de saber porque este script que chama a api no meu site não funciona mais?

ImpressolTest · 2013-06-15T13:00:47.000Z

I am using API v1.1.When I am fetching the followers list using “https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/ids.json?cursor=-1&screen_name=ImpressolTest&count=5000” I am getting response: {
errors = (
{
code = 215;
message = “Bad Authentication data”;
}
);
}

In the older API it was working fine.I used the url for the new API but its not working for me.I am getting the same error what ever I am fetching.

ImpressolTest · 2013-06-15T13:06:03.000Z

When I am fetching the follower List using the new API I am getting response:
{
errors = (
{
code = 215;
message = “Bad Authentication data”;
}
);
}

The Request I am sending is: "https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/ids.json?cursor=-1&screen_name=ImpressolTest&count=5000

Where am I wrong?

ESpacey · 2013-06-16T13:42:38.000Z

I have made an example in PHP of how to use the API 1.1, notably the project examples that where distributed for v1. haven’t been updated for v1.1, notably also the PHP Libraries looks like they are abandoned.

To Download the Package of PHP files for the Twitter v1.1 API Example and link to it on your pages please twitter these links are permanent:

Hi

as an alternative to “http://search.twitter.com/search.json?callback=?&rpp=”; for getting the newsfeed in version 1.0. Is there guidelines on how to do it client side using the https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json ?? All examples available are server side. can this not be done client side?
