POGetting Bad Authentication Data error from Twitter API
text
Body
copied!<p>Ok, so I have been using the Abraham William Twitter API library on Github to try pulling my followers on Twitter on my website , but I am getting a bad authentication error "Bad Authentication data [code] => 215" even though I followed the steps . Below is the code that authenticates me and supposed to help me try the different methods to request data from Twitter .. Could someone please tell me why I am getting this error , I would greatly appreciate it .. Abraham's twitter library documentation can be found here .. <a href="https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/abraham/twitteroauth</a></p> <pre><code> <?php /** * @file * */ /* Load required lib files. */ //session_start(); require_once('../madscore/twitter/twitteroauth/twitteroauth.php'); require_once('../madscore/twitter/config.php'); /* Get user access tokens out of the session. */ $access_token = $_SESSION['access_token']; /* Create a TwitterOauth object with consumer/user tokens. */ $connection = new TwitterOAuth(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET, $access_token['oauth_token'], $access_token['oauth_token_secret']); /* If method is set change API call made.
