consumerSecret="my secret key ",
requestURL=“https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token”,
accessURL=“https://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token”,

Hi irin, eventually I fixed the problem . You need to re-create your application on twitter again ! How? Simply go to your application on twitter and DELETE and then make a new application that’s it and it works. Let me know if you got result.

I have same problem, I could finish authentication successfully
#----------
registerTwitterOAuth(twitCred)
[1] TRUE
#-------------
but I could not access twitter API by getURL:
#----------
getURL(“https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/show.json?id=340648555121352705.JSON”,
cainfo = system.file(“CurlSSL”, “cacert.pem”, package = “RCurl”))

[1] “{“errors”:[{“message”:“Bad Authentication data”,“code”:215}]}”
#---------
what am I doing wrong?
@cmq71: I made new application also, but it does not work.

Did anyone make it work??? I have already deleted the app and created a new one. I’m on Windows XP Home edition. I use R 3.0.2 and my packages are updated.

I don’t own a domain. I’m using my blog URL in the website field. Could this be the problem?

rheimann · 2014-04-03T01:59:45.000Z

I deleted and created new app, yet I am getting the error: Unauthorized message.
Please help resolve this issue.

hreed7 · 2014-06-24T19:59:11.000Z

you have “mykey” both in the consumerKey and consumerSecret line, you want something like “mysecretkey” in the consumerSecret assignment.

far_project4 · 2014-07-17T15:34:31.000Z

could you give your R code? thanks

selcukakbas · 2014-07-17T21:15:00.000Z

have tried all of these but didn’t work. any solution about this “Error: Unauthorized” ???

download.file(url=“http://curl.haxx.se/ca/cacert.pem”, destfile=“cacert.pem”)

twitCred$handshake()
twitCred$handshake(cainfo=“cacert.pem”)
twitCred$handshake(cainfo=“cacert.pem” , ssl.verifypeer = FALSE )
twitCred$handshake(cainfo = system.file(“CurlSSL”, “cacert.pem”, package = “RCurl”))

selcukakbas · 2014-07-17T21:25:12.000Z

finally i got the solution, please try this method

library(devtools)
install_github(“twitteR”, username=“geoffjentry”)
library(twitteR)

api_key = "aaa"
api_secret = "bbb"
access_token = "ccc"
access_token_secret = "ddd"
setup_twitter_oauth(api_key,api_secret,access_token,access_token_secret)

JeremyMolayem · 2014-08-02T22:03:34.000Z

I tried the above but last line error.

Error: could not find function “setup_twitter_oauth”
