Change twitter authentication levels #6

Closed ashrujit closed 10 years ago

Currently here is what we grab - Read Tweets from your timeline. See who you follow, and follow new people. Update your profile. Post Tweets for you. Access your direct messages.

What we don't need - Update your profile

Mithun - I think you removed the wrong auth level. We need to remove - "update your profile", you removed "access to your direct messages". We need access to direct messages.

Please make this minor change and update the code. I will close this issue after that.

This is a non-issue. Twitter auth levels are controlled through app level permissions when an app is created at dev.twitter.com.

There are three levels -

  1. Read Only
  2. Read and Write only.
  3. Read, write and direct message.

Once you go for 3, you get everything other than the password. Since we need direct messaging capability, there is nothing to be changed or updated.
