I’ve got a very short python script that ends up with a 400 response, and I can’t for the life of me figure out why. Any help would be much appreciated:
import json
import requests
import urllib
twitter_app_credentials = {
"api_key": (api key here),
"api_secret_key": (secret key here)
}
response = requests.post("https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token", headers={"Content-Type": "application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8"}, data={"grant_type": "client_credentials"}, auth=(twitter_app_credentials["api_key"], twitter_app_credentials["api_secret_key"]))
if response.status_code != 200:
print "Failed to obtain bearer token:"
print response.status_code
print response.content
exit()
deserialized_response = response.json()
if deserialized_response["token_type"] != "bearer":
print "POST: https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token failed to return a bearer token."
print "a \"" + deserialized_response["token_type"] + "\" token was returned instead."
exit()
bearer_token = deserialized_response["access_token"]
print bearer_token
response = requests.get('https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json', data={"q": "test"}, headers={'Authentication': 'Bearer %s' % bearer_token})
Could someone tell me what I’m missing here?
