Hi team,
Recently, we faced an issue with one of the Twitter API
Endpoint : https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/retweet/{status-id}.json
when 25 calls to this endpoint failed and we got following error response:
The request is understood, but it has been refused. An accompanying error message will explain why. This code is used when requests are being denied due to update limits (https://support.twitter.com/articles/15364-about-twitter-limits-update-api-dm-and-following).
message - Not authorized to use this endpoint.
code - 37
Here are few msg ids for which retweets failed:
msg id, account id for which call failed
1. 821497196906311680, 2919039374
2. 821490295627911169, 21470979
3. 821493164796035072, 891572084
4. 821041085866708994, 24741685
5. 821398869313548289, 472202585
All the failures occurred between 4:00am-5:30am 18th Jan, 2017 (IST).
However, this api is working fine now.
We could not find any relevant reason for this failure in twitter api error codes documentation
https://dev.twitter.com/overview/api/response-codes.
Can you please provide us the reason for this failure so that we can handle this error in future?
Thank you.
