Hi guys,
Any idea why on computers the tweeted image (via a media id) started showing as a color block (a couple days back) but on iOS it’s showing fine.
Please see attached.
It looks like the original Tweet that the original image was attached to must have been deleted, since the image URL itself is returning 404. What is the exact process you are using to generate these Tweets?
Hi @andypiper
Thanks for your prompt reply.
The exact process is: I’m doing a v2 api post to the tweets endpoint. The body of the message contains: text, and “media”: {“media_ids”: [“xxxxxx”]} where the xxxxxx was obtained by looking up the media_id of an image in a previous post of mine.
The interesting thing is it was working fine at first for the first 3 or 4 tweets or so. And it’s still working in iOS (that is, the image is being shown instead of a color block representation of the average image color – which is how it seems to be obtaining the color). That is, I don’t think that the image isn’t being found, it’s just not being showed.
Any ideas? Any other recommended mechanisms to show an image in all my api tweets?
