POTwitter API 1.1 OAuth Get Use Data
text
Body
copied!<p>I read this tutorial to implement twitter oauth in nodejs (for "login with twitter" purpose) - <a href="http://codetheory.in/how-to-use-twitter-oauth-with-node-oauth-in-your-node-js-express-application/" rel="nofollow">http://codetheory.in/how-to-use-twitter-oauth-with-node-oauth-in-your-node-js-express-application/</a></p> <p>The last piece of code has this variable called <code>results</code> which is supposed to hold the user data sent back by twitter, but for me it only contains screen_name and user_id which is not enough. I need much more data like profile image, etc.</p> <p>So I looked at the twitter documentation - <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/users/show" rel="nofollow">https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1/get/users/show</a><br> The sample URL seems to work fine - <a href="https://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name=TwitterAPI&include_entities=true" rel="nofollow">https://api.twitter.com/1/users/show.json?screen_name=TwitterAPI&include_entities=true</a></p> <p>But recently I read twitter will shut down API 1 soon and replace it with API 1.1</p> <p>So I tried the 1.1 API - <a href="https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/users/show" rel="nofollow">https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/users/show</a><br> The sample URL <strong>does not</strong> work - <a href="https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/show.json?screen_name=rsarver" rel="nofollow">https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/show.json?screen_name=rsarver</a> </p> <p>Gives error -</p> <pre><code>{"errors":[{"message":"Bad Authentication data","code":215}]} </code></pre> <p>What am I doing wrong ? How do I get user info properly from twitter and hopefully in my Node.js code that uses this module - <a href="https://github.com/ciaranj/node-oauth" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/ciaranj/node-oauth</a> ?</p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p>
