Publish Tweets w/ v2 about twitterapi HOT 3 CLOSED

The following code worked for me.

from TwitterAPI import TwitterAPI, TwitterRequestError, TwitterConnectionError

try:
        api = TwitterAPI(
                consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token_key, access_token_secret,
                auth_type='oAuth1',
                api_version='2')

        r = api.request('tweets', {'text':'a test to test'}, method_override='POST')

        for item in r:
                print(item)

except TwitterRequestError as e:
        print(e.status_code)
        for msg in iter(e):
                print(msg)

except TwitterConnectionError as e:
        print(e)

except Exception as e:
        print(e)

Thanks for getting back to me so quickly @geduldig. Your code is correct, the problem was on the Twitter side of things. I'll leave steps below in case anyone else comes across this:

• App stopped working after a few years. I was using v1 of the Twitter API, which they stopped supporting. I was using a standalone Twitter app. Apps are now required to be part of a Project.
• There is an option to attach existing Apps to a Project, try that. If that doesn't work (Twitter threw errors) then you need to delete your existing App and create a new one under your Project
• In the new App setup permissions under "User authentication settings". Make sure to select "Read and write" under App permissions. This will generate OAuth2 tokens so your app can be used on other user's behalf. Even though this isn't what I'm using the app for, this step is required.
• Under the App's "Keys and Tokens" (re)generate new API Key and Secret pairs and Access Token and Secret pairs. If these existed before the previous step, they must be regenerated.

I also attempted this code and received the following error:

TwitterAPI(
  oauth2_access_token=os.getenv("TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN"),
  auth_type="oAuth2User",
  api_version="2",
)
api.request("tweets", {"text": "Hello World"}, method_override="POST")

Authenticating with OAuth 2.0 Application-Only is forbidden for this endpoint. Supported authentication types are [OAuth 1.0a User Context, OAuth 2.0 User Context].
