[twitter-dev] Trouble Authenticating with one API method
Hi All, Just wondering if anyone can help me, or confirm I'm not alone. I ahve been using C# to talk to the APi for a while now, usign OAuth for authentication, and so far it's all been fine. But I just tried using the home_timeline method using the same oauth credentials I use for other methods, but for some reason this one always says it can't authenticate me. Does anyone else experience this problem, or am I missing something simple? Thanks in advance for any advice you can provide :) regards Tristan -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk

Re: [twitter-dev] REST API Rate Limiting
Are you on an IP address that might be shared with other users? Right now, unauthenticated requests count against your IP addresses's rate limit. If you could log what the X-RateLimit-* HTTP headers indicate at each step, it'd be helpful: status of headers after making your first request, then the second request, then the request where you end up being limited.

Re: [twitter-dev] Incorrect signature while getting home tweets
Without getting to deep into this, some advice:
* Use HTTP header based authentication instead of attaching OAuth parameters
to the query string. It makes it much more difficult to receive assistance
from others when you use query-string based auth and increases the chances
of an encoding error exponentially.
* Avoid strange characters in an oauth_nonce. When possible, avoid the ~
character entirely -- depending on the language and libraries you are using,
some are less spec compliant than others on characters like tilde
* That you were able to negotiate oauth_tokens through xAuth is a good sign
that your code does something right. POSTs are harder than GETs. There must
be something simple wrong with your GET. Look very closely. Compare to the
spec if necessary. Compare to other code that produces the correct results.

[twitter-dev] Trust Level Failure
From my web site, when certain events occur, such as a visitor registers, a news event happens, etc, I need to post the message Tweet on Twitter.com. I have written the web application in VB.NET 3.5 using Visual Studio 2008. I added all 4 required values, ConsumerKey, ConsumerSecret, OAuthToken, and OAuthTokenSecret to the web.config file in the appSettings section of the configuration section. appSettings !-- Twitter and BitLy access keys -- add key=ConsumerKey value=YOUR_CONSUMER_KEY / add key=ConsumerSecret value=YOUR_CONSUMER_SECRET_KEY / add key=OAuthToken value=YOUR_APPS_OAUTHTOKEN_KEY / add key=OAuthTokenSecret value=YOUR_APPS_OAUTHTOKEN_SECRET_KEY / /appSettings I found that by going to twitter.com and signing into the account that is using the application, then go to the Settings page, go to the bottom of the page and click on the API menu option. Once the API page appears you will clik on the button 2, Register An App. On the right side on the new page, you will see a button View Your Applications. If you have previously registered your app, click this button, If not fill out the appliction for a new app. Now at the View your Applications page, select the app you want to get the authorization keys for where is says Edit Details. Now click on the button to the right that says, Application Detail. Here you will find your Consumer Key and your Consumer Secret Key. On the right side of this page you will see the menu option My Access Token, click it and you will find your oauth_token and your oauth_token_secret keys! Not that you have all the keys, put them in the appSettings section of the web.config file. Add Dim twConn As New TwitterVB2.TwitterAPI at the top of the page. I then created a subroutine where I pass in the Tweet: Public Sub PostOnTwitter(ByVal Tweet As String) 'Retrieve Keys from web.config Dim twitterKey As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings(ConsumerKey) Dim twitterSecret As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings(ConsumerSecret) Dim twitterOAuthToken As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings(OAuthToken) Dim twitterOAuthTokenSecret As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings(OAuthTokenSecret) Try twConn.AuthenticateWith(twitterKey, twitterSecret, twitterOAuthToken, twitterOAuthTokenSecret) twConn.Update(Trim(Tweet)) Catch ex As Exception lblError.Text = Twitter Returned: ex.Message End Try End Sub This code works great in an enviornment that allows at least a Medium trust level. However it appears that many of the new hosting envrionments such as Cloud Hosting, Web Farm, and others do not allow this trust level automatically!However if the trust level is less than Medium on your host you will likely receive the error message: Twitter Returned: Request for the permission of type 'System.Security.Permissions.SecurityPermission, mscorlib, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

Thanks a lot!
This is very helpful.
John:
You said:
If you don't receive a limit message, you know that you've received
all
possible tweets for the predicate
But:
-The only way to get limited in status/filter is using more keywords
or more users id than is allowed according to access level?
Is there any other way?
-The limit message contains some kind of sum info? (Additionnally,
where can I find the data spec for this limit message and for data
returned by status/filter in general?)
Thanks in advance.

-I think, taking Edward's approach, I've still the same problem : even
taking a very narrow criteria I can never know what's the total, so
I can'´t know if all the tweets got by streaming are useful or not.
I think I have to remark that I don't need to know an exact total of
tweets in a given moment. What I'd like to know is an approximate
percentage over some approximate total of tweets estimation. I dare to
think it's part of the service providing specification.
I do understand that it can be difficult to exactly define total of
tweets when streaming and having tweets going into Twitter
permanently but not constantly, but some estimated info would be
great.
Thank you all in advance.
Alejandro.

Quoting AA alejandro.ale...@gmail.com:
Hi everybody!
I'm designing an app to do some mining over a corpus of tweets.
I think I'll use streaming api, statuses/filter filtering by keywords.
I'd like to know, before starting development, what is the percentage
of tweets delivered by this stream over the total tweets ('meaning
total tweets' the total of tweets that have the tracking keywords) .
This is information is crucial because of statistical confidence: a
very little sample may not be significant.
Addittionally, Ive been googling and reading a lot for 3 days and I
can't figure out how i can use different 'level accesses'.
I've readhttp://
dev.twitter.com/pages/streaming_api_methods#statuses-filter
but how can I use this different levels levels of access?
Thanks in advance!
Regards
Alejandro.
I actually think the answer to *yout* question is, If your filter
criteria are sufficiently narrow, you get *all* of the public tweets
with those keywords sent by users who aren't being blocked by
Twitter's quality filter. At least that's what the documentation has
said in the past.
But *my* question is, How does one determine the total number of
tweets, for some definition of total?
a. All tweets created, including those that aren't public?
b. All public tweets created, including those from low quality users
that don't get indexed by search or sent to the filter stream?
c. All tweets sent to the inlet of the filter stream and the various
elevated access level stream?
Remind me again - when does Snowflake go live? I haven't looked at
Streaming data for a couple months.

[twitter-dev] My Tweets, Retweeted
In my application I would like to show My Tweets, Retweeted with the rest of the Mentions for a user.

Re: [twitter-dev] Re: Tweet button-unicode URL
Hi, When constructing the Tweet Button HTML you can safely place the unencoded URL into the data-url parameter. The Tweet Button will then handle the encoding for you. You only need to manage the encoding if you are creating the share URL yourself. I've visited your page and found the Tweet Button implemented successfully - was there another implementation that was causing you problems? --- @themattharris Developer Advocate, Twitter http://twitter.com/themattharris On Thu, Oct 14, 2010 at 6:41 AM, Wadja argyris.wa...@gmail.com wrote: Anyone...:) On Oct 12, 10:39 am, Wadja argyris.wa...@gmail.com wrote: Hello, I am trying to pass this URL(has Greek letters) via Tweetbuttonbut It always returns ...'url' parameter does not contain a valid URL. http://www.wadja.com/petty01#ÅëëçíéêÞ Ïéêïíïìßá I've tried all the below using JavaScript but no luck: escape(), encodeURI(), encodeURIComponent() Please advice.

Without getting to deep into this, some advice:
* Use HTTP header based authentication instead of attaching OAuth
parameters to the query string. It makes it much more difficult to receive
assistance from others when you use query-string based auth and increases
the chances of an encoding error exponentially.
* Avoid strange characters in an oauth_nonce. When possible, avoid the ~
character entirely -- depending on the language and libraries you are using,
some are less spec compliant than others on characters like tilde
* That you were able to negotiate oauth_tokens through xAuth is a good sign
that your code does something right. POSTs are harder than GETs. There must
be something simple wrong with your GET. Look very closely. Compare to the
spec if necessary. Compare to other code that produces the correct results.
