I’m trying to create tweets with a VideoWebsiteCard via the api, so I’m uploading a video, creating a Video object, then creating a VideoWebsiteCard object and finally a Tweet.
This worked for me yesterday, but in the afternoon I started receiving 500 errors from the twitter API when saving the Video object.
I’m able to successfully upload a video and receive a media_id, but when I create the Video object, I get an HTTP 500 error (attached at the end of this post).
I can’t find a twitter API status page, so I’m not sure if there’s a more general issue happening, or if I’m doing something wrong?
