[twitter-dev] Re: oAuth reporting a status update error when none exists

[EastSideDev]

I double-checked my code, and I'm only calling statuses/update once:

$connection = new TwitterOAuth($ctck, $ctcks, $ot,$ots);
$opResult = $connection->post('statuses/update',
array('status' => $statusUpdate), TRUE);
if (!$opResult['id']) {
$msgText .= $opResult['error']." ";
}

This is code that was working fine, until recently (no changes).

Re: [twitter-dev] oAuth reporting a status update error when none exists

[Abraham Williams]

It sound to me like your code might be making the same API request twice.
This would result in the status getting posted and the error message you end
up with.

If you are commonly creating statuses with the same text it might just seem
like a new status is getting posted when they are not.

I have one question here...
I know that we can fetch the recent posts from a user's account,
however is it possible to fetch replies to a particular tweet?
Please guide me on that.

Thanks in advance!!!

[twitter-dev] oAuth reporting a status update error when none exists

[EastSideDev]

I have an application that uses oAuth to post a tweet on behalf of a
user. I noticed today that when I do a status update, I'm getting a
"Status is a duplicate" error message, when in fact the status posted
correctly.

I have not changed my code, and I am using the Twitter oAuth library
(same code been working fine since June). Are we experiencing some API
issues?

[twitter-dev] Differences between "trends" and "trends/current"??

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

I'm starting to write some code that uses the "trends" portions of the  
API. I notice that there are two "similar" endpoints, 'GET trends" and  
"GET trends/current". They look pretty much alike in the  
documentation, except for a minor format difference in the returned  
JSON. However, if I actually use the "Try it" option, it looks like  
"GET trends/current" returns more information.


Given that my application is a data collector, I'd obviously prefer  
more information and plan to code using "GET trends/current". Is this  
just a documentation glitch, or is the "new" format from "GET  
trends/current" an undocumented feature that might disappear?

[twitter-dev] Re: Best scalable method to process mentions

[fbparis]

I guess you should use the stream api to get mentions in real time. No
need to process it directly, you could code a simple client connected
to the stream api which record new mention in database, then launch
your script time to time and get the mentions via the database rather
than via the twitter api.

[twitter-dev] Re: Getting tweets from users following a particular user

[Louis]

I was under the impression that using 'follow' simply returns tweets
or retweets which were originally created by, or were in reply to, a
specific user - I'm interested in getting *any* tweet from all users
following this special user (sampled possibly).

For example, I could use it to see what people who follow @Microsoft
talk about, Microsoft related or not.

[twitter-dev] Best scalable method to process mentions

[Serdar]

Hi I have just launched my first twitter application. Basically:

-People send a tweet that mentions @appName (authorizing not needed)
-App checks for new @appName mentions *from time to time*, and process
them.

There is a max mentions limit (200) that can be retrieved at a time
via API. I know I'm not hitting this limit soon with the app but I
want to code a scalable method fo get mentions.

Unfortunaltely we do not have the option to get mentions in the
'oldest first' order.

This causes a little tricky code for getting mentions in chunks and
not missing older tweets. (Suppose you had 200+ mentions since last
check).

For testing I limit, 'max mentions to get at a time' to 10, in my code
and it seems to be working.

I won't go into more details...

-I would like to know if any of you have coded something similar?

-Would love to see an alternative, as I'm not happy with my code!

-Is there an API method I could use for this purpose, which would make
things easier?

Thanks,
Serdar.

[twitter-dev] cancel follow request

[mostafa farghaly]

Hi,

Canceling outgoing follow request works fine on twitter.com by:
http://api.twitter.com/1/friendships/cancel.json

but calling it from the API return:
The server understood the request, but is refusing to fulfill it.

could you please allow us to cancel outgoing follow request from the
API.

It appears if you use  iso_language_code=en  then it works.

[twitter-dev] Authenticating with $_SESSION['oauth']['oauth_token'] and $_SESSION['oauth']['oauth_token_secret'] returns "Request token must be exchanged for an access token before use"

[Tobias C. Jensen]

Hi guys.

I'm trying to authenticate with the tmhOAuth PHP class by Matt Harris.

I'm using $_SESSION['oauth']['oauth_token'] as 'user_token' and
$_SESSION['oauth']['oauth_token_secret'] as 'user_secret'.

But when I try to verify_credentials it returns the error:

{"request":"\/1\/account\/verify_credentials.json","error":"Request
token must be exchanged for an access token before use"}

Am I doing it wrong? Is the oauth_token and oauth_token_secret
sessions not the right ones to use?

If I use a token and secret that I stored a month ago it works just
fine..

Thanks in advance!

Regards,
Tobias C. Jensen

Re: [twitter-dev] collecting tweet message ids

[Matt Harris]

Hi Rajinder,

We would really like to offer access to the historical timeline but our
infrastructure doesn't allow access to anymore than 3200 right now. The
Tweets are safe and have not been deleted or lost, they are just not
available. We also don't have a timeline for access to historical tweets
right now.

In answer to your second question, when there are no more statuses available
we'll return an HTTP 200 with an empty timeline. For example:

JSON:
[]

XML:

Also seems to happen with the geocode parameter, adding a since_id
makes the results return but we should not be able to that.

[twitter-dev] Re: Search API Optional lang Has Problem.

[redevries]

There is an issue with Twitter's language detection. When specifying a
language (lang=nl) , there is no result, when using lang=all, I do get
results, in my language.

Using lang=all gives us so many results, that we're hitting the rate
limits with lots of stuff we're throwing away straight away after
we've passed it past our own language detection

Are there any plans to fix this?

Re: [twitter-dev] Getting tweets from users following a particular user

[M. Edward (Ed) Borasky]

Quoting Louis :


I'd like to stream tweets from the set of users which follow a
specific user. Is there a way to do this directly, or a way to get a
list of such users, so I can then specify to filter tweets from them
only?


It depends on how many followers the user has. Up to 5000, you can do  
it with the "follow" parameter either on the "filter" Streaming  
endpoint or on User Streams. Over 5000, you will need to get "elevated  
access" via Gnip.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Where can I find the updated rate limit after OAuth?

[Taylor Singletary]

statuses/followers and statuses/friends don't require authentication and are
likely subject to this condition. When calling these resources, are you
explicitly providing the user_id or screen_name?

These methods are some of the oldest offered in the API and aren't really
the best choices for consuming data of that nature. You would be better
positioned to use friends/ids and followers/ids in conjunction with
users/lookup

Thanks for the reply, Taylor...

Are the API requests "statuses/followers" and "statuses/friends"
included in the "public-only" resources that you are referring to? Or,
I'm I not making any sense? :)

Hi Matt,

thanks, that is a better solution than what I have been using.
Questions, am I limited up to only 3200 statuses? is it possible to go
beyond this limit and get the entire statues for a user?

When there are no more status request (empty set), what http error
code can I expect. Likewise if 3200 status is a hard limit what http
error will I get when this limit is hit?

Finally if I have exceeded my rate limit what is the http code returned?

Kind Regards,
Rajinder Yadav

[twitter-dev] Re: randomly 401 error

[themattharris]

Hi Alvin,

The error in that response tells me your signature is incorrect.
Double check you are generating your signature using the algorithm
described here:
http://dev.twitter.com/auth#signing-requests

In particular I notice the parameters in your GET request are not in
lexicographical order, and so I wonder if they may not be in order in
your signature base string.

Best,
Matt

[twitter-dev] Re: Search API Optional lang Has Problem.

[clichekiller]

This has happened before.  Appending a since clause works around it,
but limits your search results to only five days.  Also last time this
happened they fixed it within a few weeks.  I just wish we could get
an official comment on this.

[twitter-dev] API call for Replying a tweet

[avinash]

Hi,
I'm building a website where i want authenticated twitter users to
reply to their tweets.
Here are the details, in my website i have users who get authenticated
from twitter end via OAuth.
I then fetch their timelines.
Now what i want to implement is that users should be able to reply to
the tweets from my website.
Is it possible that when the user wishes to reply and clicks on the
"Reply" link in my website he/she is shown the same screen which we
see when we click on "Reply" link while replying to a tweet @twitter.

Please do guide me if I could implement such a feature via some api/
url if its not a security issue at your end.
Thanks,
Avinash

This has been a problem for some time now, is nothing be done to

Re: [twitter-dev] Where can I find the updated rate limit after OAuth?

[Taylor Singletary]

There are some API methods that don't have the concept of an unauthenticated
user -- these "public-only" resources will not consider OAuth credentials
when calculating the rate limit. We are looking to make the application of
rate limiting across resources, regardless of whether the resource expects
auth or not, consistent in the future.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Search API Optional lang Has Problem.

[Hayes Davis]

I'm seeing this as well. Including filter:links or setting that language
causes the search to fail. I get an error message saying "since_id has been
adjusted due to a temporary error". I'm *not* including a since_id in the
search parameters.

Same problem here. When lang=all is used I am getting results. When a

Re: [twitter-dev] Where can I find the updated rate limit after OAuth?

[Randolph Estebat]

Thanks for the reply, Igor...

Yes it should be. The problem is that the headers are giving me the limit
150 rather than the expected 350 after OAuth.

Any ideas why this is the case?

Thanks again.

Re: [twitter-dev] collecting tweet message ids

[Matt Harris]

Hi Rajinder.

The user_timeline returns upto 200 statuses per page starting with the most
recent. To retrieve a complete page of 200 you will want to make a request
similar to:

http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=200\&include_rts=1

This request will return upto the most recent 200 statuses. To retrieve the
next 200 you would make this request:

http://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?count=200\&include_rts=1\&page=2

When requesting this many statuses at once you may get a 503 error response
from us. If this happens wait a few seconds and try the request again.

Hope that helps,

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: include_entities option for search API

[Matt Harris]

Thanks for the suggestion. Entities in Search has been added to our
Enhancement requests list. You can add your vote for this feature by staring
it.
http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/detail?id=1967

We do not have a timeline for when this feature could be added so I
recommend you keep an eye on our announcements list (
http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-api-announce ) and follow @twitterapi
for information as it becomes available.

Re: [twitter-dev] delimited (streaming API) now default?

[Matt Harris]

Hey,

I haven't been able to reproduce this using my Streaming API library. When
delimited=length is sent as a parameter we will include the number of bytes
(in decimal) for the object being sent.

What I did notice is that 0x6EF = 1775 and 0x710 = 1808 -- in both cases the
Hex values are 6 bytes longer than the object we are returning.

The hex value you are seeing isn't something we're have added. Is it
possible some debug code was added to your streaming library?

One way to test is to make a request using curl only and see if the Hex
values are showing there as well. You can do this by running:
curl https://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json -d
"track=twitter" -u YOUR_USERNAME

[twitter-dev] delimited (streaming API) now default?

[ianrose]

It appears to me that when using the statuses/filter streaming API
method, elements are not length-delimited by default, even if you
don't specify "?delimited=length".  And if you DO add "?
delimited=length", you get double length fields.  For example:

if I query http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json, I get
something like:

64B
{  }

731
{  }



If, on the other hand, I query 
http://stream.twitter.com/1/statuses/filter.json?delimited=length,
I get something like:

6EF
1769
{  }

710
1802
{  }

So its passing me a length in hex, and then a length in decimal, and
then the actual status update.  It sure seems like 'delimited=length'
is redundant now.  But was this API change ever documented?  I can't
find any announcements about it and the dev docs still describe the
old format.

thanks!

Once you authorized an user and got his access token you're free to
use all the API methods like statuses/mentions (replies):

I use Abraham Williams's Twitteroauth https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth
to search for Tweets near a location (for http://twitter.com/#!/birminghamuk)
but in the last few days it has started returning no results.

Similarly search.Twitter.com is returning no results for any search
"near a location"


Is anyone else having these issues?
