Hey Markus

Thanks so much for this great tutorial.

I keep getting this error on Webclient Dat

"{“errors”:[{“message”:“You currently have Essential access which includes access to Twitter API v2 endpoints only. If you need access to this endpoint, you’ll need to apply for Elevated access via the Developer Portal. You can learn more here: Getting Started with the Twitter API | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform”

And I’m not exactly sure why this simple request needs the "elevated " status.
I did apply for the elevated but awaiting reply from Twitter.

I was wondering if you ran into the same issue?

Thanks very much

Hey @SAHAR,

it could be that I’m still using API v1 - will check and get back to you.

Cheers

Hi Markus

Thanks for looking into this.

So far, it seems like The page" User authentication settings" needs to be filled out. In this case, some elements such as the “type of app” , “callback URL” , “Terms of service URL” and “privacy URL” seems to be mandatory. I am not certain how to fill those out.

Hi @SAHAR,

here is an updated version that uses API2 and allows to add and remove rules as well as select the Stream Query Parameters. You only need the oAuth2 Bearer Token for this to run.

I have to add a bit more parsing for things like the Rule Dry Run feature, but this seems to work so far pretty well.

Cheers
Markus
The repository on github will always contain the updated file.
