I am trying to post a message to my twitter account using the curl command but am having some trouble. Below is the code I am using to post.
curl --request ‘POST’ ‘https://api.twitter.com/1/’ --data ‘status=TEST’ --header ‘Authorization: OAuth
oauth_consumer_key=“13QriTFYmD6ZAfpQLiw3g”, oauth_nonce=“813e8056ccd2585e87d9173f2cf96432”, oauth_signature=“Ckx5%2FQ8ki0h%2F1iR89CLfe4NmNBM%3D”, oauth_signature_method=“HMAC-SHA1”, oauth_timestamp=“1369740055”, oauth_token=“631283566-kZGXNkQpYS45woQAu3ecvU9HRja4zS82I2rljxc”, oauth_version=“1.0”’ --verbose
I keep getting a “status: 403 forbidden”
Here is the output. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
