Authenticating error (api_version='2') about twitterapi HOT 8 CLOSED

I see one thing you are doing wrong. The 'tweets' request, by default uses HTTP GET. You need to use HTTP POST in order to upload a tweet. Try this...
r = api.request('tweets', {'text':'a test to test'}, method_override='POST')

from twitterapi.

Looks good to me. Are you using the same credentials with Postman and TwitterAPI?

I would add something to your code to confirm that your credentials are valid.

Yes, I'm using the same exact credentials with Postman and TwitterAPI.

What code do I need to add that check my credentials are valid?

from twitterapi.

You could try other enpoints, such as searching for tweets, that don't require write privileges. I'm really not sure what to tell you. It doesn't make sense that the same credentials would would work in one case and not in the other. Are those credentials associated with a Twitter developer project?

The error you are receiving is from Twitter, so it's impossible to for me to look into the cause. There must be some difference between your requests in Postman and in TwitterAPI. It might be helpful to try the same request using another library such as twarc.
