Why https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json returns null

[raja_itm]

Dear All

My objective is to retrieve tweets via Twitter API by an string.
When I am trying to get tweets via https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json. It returns null value. Despite I’ve created token with following command
IToken token = new Token(
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[“token_AccessToken”],
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[“token_AccessTokenSecret”],
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[“token_ConsumerKey”],
ConfigurationManager.AppSettings[“token_ConsumerSecret”]);

Keep this mind that this token was working well with following command like
(1) dynamic lstr_SearchedData = token.ExecuteGETQuery(“https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=” +tbxTexttoSearch.Text.Trim())
this was returning json data but the returned tweets were not same as tweet searched by Twitter manually from its home page.
Then I replaced it with
(2) dynamic lstr_SearchedData = token.ExecuteGETQuery("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json"
but it returns null in lstr_SearchedData.

Even if some one can identify the reason behind difference in results of command 1 from Twitter Home Search and give me suggestion for correction,
I’ll be grateful to him/her

I’m not familiar with whichever programming language you’re using, but I would try to further debug the response object you’re getting back. Are there are any HTTP headers, status codes, or error response messages in the body?

Dear Taylor
Thanks for replying

I am using ASP.NET C# and following is my code

IToken token = new Token( ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_AccessToken"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_AccessTokenSecret"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_ConsumerKey"], ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_ConsumerSecret"]);

            WebExceptionHandlingDelegate del = delegate(WebException wex)
            {
                lblMessage.Text = wex.Message;
            };

dynamic lstr_SearchedData = token.ExecuteGETQuery(“https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/home_timeline.json”)

lstr_SearchedData receives null. Only items are using for Authentication which are coming from Application Settings (ConfigurationManager).

I am using ASP.NET C# and adopting the library Tweetinvi maintained by Linvi, recommended on Twitter Developer Documentation.
complete code is as follows:

            IToken token = new Token(
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_AccessToken"],
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_AccessTokenSecret"],
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_ConsumerKey"],
                ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["token_ConsumerSecret"]);

            WebExceptionHandlingDelegate del = delegate(WebException wex)
            {
                lblMessage.Text = wex.Message;
            };
                dynamic lstr_SearchedData = token.ExecuteGETQuery("https://stream.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/filter.json" +
                    "?track=" + tbxTexttoSearch.Text.Trim()
                    //"&count=800"
                    )

Kindly check it guide me for solution.
