Hi,
I am trying to implement the Twitter Search API V1.1
Please correct me if I am wrong.
I performed the below mentioned steps :
Step 1) Created an App in Twitter.
So I got the TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY and TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRETCODE.
Step 2) I encoded the concatenation of the above keys separated by ":" with the base UTF-8.
Step3 ) Get the bearer token with the above generated code.
Step4 ) Use the bearer code to get the Tweets on the relevance of a keyword.
I am stuck in Step 3,
where in I am getting the Response as::
Server returned HTTP response code: 403 for URL: https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token
at sun.net.www.protocol.http.HttpURLConnection.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
at sun.net.www.protocol.https.HttpsURLConnectionImpl.getInputStream(Unknown Source)
at com.tcs.crm.socialCRM.action.TwitterIntegration.requestBearerToken(TwitterIntegration.java:74)
at com.tcs.crm.socialCRM.action.TwitterIntegration.getStatusSearch(TwitterIntegration.java:27)
at com.tcs.crm.socialCRM.action.TwitterIntegration.main(TwitterIntegration.java:103)
My code is ::
// Method creating the Request
private String requestBearerToken(String endPointUrl, String encodedCredentials) throws IOException
{
HttpsURLConnection connection = null;
PrintWriter outWriter = null;
BufferedReader serverResponse = null;
try
{
URL url = new URL(endPointUrl);
connection = (HttpsURLConnection) url.openConnection();
connection.setDoOutput(true);
connection.setDoInput(true);
connection.setRequestMethod("POST");
connection.setRequestProperty("Host", "api.twitter.com");
connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent", "Search Tweets");
connection.setRequestProperty("Authorization", "Basic " + encodedCredentials);
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8");
connection.setRequestProperty("Content-Length", "29");
connection.setUseCaches(false);
connection.setDoOutput( true );
//CREATE A WRITER FOR OUTPUT
outWriter = new PrintWriter( connection.getOutputStream() );
//SEND PARAMETERS
outWriter.println( "grant_type=client_credentials" );
outWriter.flush();
outWriter.close();
//RESPONSE STREAM
serverResponse = new BufferedReader( new InputStreamReader( connection.getInputStream() ) );
JSONObject obj = (JSONObject)JSONValue.parse(serverResponse);
logger.info("The return string is "+obj.toString());
return obj.toString();
}
catch (Exception e)
{
e.printStackTrace();
throw new IOException("Connection Issue");
}
finally
{
if (connection != null) {
connection.disconnect();
}
}
}
// Method Encoding the Keys :
public static String encodeKeysToBase64(String consumerKey, String consumerSecret)
{
try {
String encodedConsumerKey = URLEncoder.encode(consumerKey, “UTF-8”);
String encodedConsumerSecret = URLEncoder.encode(consumerSecret, “UTF-8”);
String fullKey = encodedConsumerKey + ":" + encodedConsumerSecret;
byte[] encodedBytes = Base64.encodeBase64(fullKey.getBytes());
return new String(encodedBytes);
}
catch (UnsupportedEncodingException e) {
return new String();
}
}
Please let me know where I am making the mistake.
