I'm trying to execute the examples from

Since this list is for the core language and standard library
this is a bit off list. You might get more response direct from
the author or a twitter specific mailing list(if one exists).
Failing that maybe the main Python list. However...
con_secret='DACs' # "Consumer Secret"
con_secret_key='jold' # "Consumer Key"
token='2554' # "Access token"
token_key='HHSD' # "Access Token Secret"
Example code often uses fictitious security keys.
Are you sure these values are genuine values that work if
you use them to access twitter directly?
t = Twitter(
auth=OAuth(token, token_key, con_secret, con_secret_key))
t.statuses.user_timeline(screen_name="RenateBergmann")
The reply is:
twitter.api.TwitterHTTPError: Twitter sent status 401 for URL:
1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json using parameters:
(oauth_consumer_key=DA...&oauth_nonce=...&oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1&oauth_timestamp=....&oauth_token=....&oauth_version=1.0&screen_name=RenateBergmann&oauth_signature=......)
details: {"errors":[{"message":"Could not authenticate you","code":32}]}
What's the issue? Have I used the right tokens and keys?
Do you mean you used the same keys as in the example?
Or have you tested the keys work via some other method of access?
Is Python 2.7 the proper version? The documentation said 2.6, but
someone told me I had to use 2.7.
I doubt the differences between 2.6 and 2.7 are your problem.
Is the authentication method correct? It should be, because this is an
example from the Github readme.
I can't help there I know nothing about Twitter, far less its API!
