Send Direct Message using curl. NOT twurl

[Alisher65836188]

Hi, I’ve been trying to send direct messages using curl. I tried twurl and it works just fine, but I need curl for my purposes. When I do curl request I include all the tokens and secrets needed as well as nonce, time and signature. When I send the request I get this error “errors”:[{“code”:32,“message”:“Could not authenticate you.”}]. The purpose for using curl instead of twurl is because I want to run this command in Python using their ‘requests’ library. So my questions are: 1) How to make a curl request to send DM? 2) If that’s not possible then how can I send twurl requests using Python? Thanks

Using curl to make requests to the Twitter API is very difficult since all of the OAuth parameters need to be generated for each request.

Requests has easy OAuth support though so I would recommend using that.

I found TwitterAPI for Python to send requests easily
