Unable to compose tweets - Receiving error - 'Request failed: unauthorized (401)'

[ckshah7]

Hi,

I’m trying to compose tweets from my iOS app (Obj-C). I’m able to Login without any issues but I hit a road block when I try to compose tweets from my app. I’m getting the below error.

And yes, I have double checked the TwitterKit initialization in AppDelegate.m and added callback URL in my App in Twitter and also verified the entries in info.plist file (as in https://dev.twitter.com/twitterkit/ios/installation).

Did encounter error sending Tweet: Error Domain=TWTRNetworkingErrorDomain Code=-1011 “Request failed: unauthorized (401)” UserInfo={NSLocalizedFailureReason=, TWTRNetworkingStatusCode=401, NSErrorFailingURLKey=https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json, NSLocalizedDescription=Request failed: unauthorized (401)}

Please help!

Hi there,
This issue also occurred in my project regardless of iOS version (tested on iOS 10, iOS 11)

The weird thing is this only happens to my customer’s account.
I tried with another 2 accounts, composing tweet works.

Below message is also shown in console log.

CredStore - performQuery - Error copying matching creds.  Error=-25300, query={
    class = inet;
    "m_Limit" = "m_LimitAll";
    ptcl = htps;
    "r_Attributes" = 1;
    sdmn = "https://api.twitter.com";
    srvr = "api.twitter.com";
    sync = syna;
}

I’m using TwitterKit v3.1.1 (Objective-C)

I really appreciate if there is any update about this.
Many thanks.

It turns out it is problem with the customer’s account.

This seems that the app permission was set to Read-only.
But after a careful check, it was still Read & Write.
Finally regenerating the consumer key and secret made it work.
