Error on connecting to Twitter API - /1.1/statuses/filter.json #457

Open oriolnfe opened 1 year ago

oriolnfe commented 1 year ago

Hello,

I have run dmi-cat both in a docker environment, and with the auto installation in an Ubuntu 18.04LTS. I have configured the Twitter API Keys as instructed by both the guide and the wiki.

When I run the project with a query bin, in both situations, I get an error from the Twitter API:

Problem accessing \'/1.1/statuses/filter.json\'. Reason:

Please use V2 filtered and sample volume stream as alternatives

I created my API keys with both a project in Twitter and as a standalone app. The former shall have access to the v1.1 and v2 APIs, and the latter to the v1.1 alone.

Could you please review this issue?

thanks.

Hello @n3if, if you created a new application after April 29th, you unfortunately will not have access to API v1 and TCAT will not work with newer keys.

We have been migrating TCAT analysis features to another tool 4CAT. You can currently use 4CAT with Twitter API v2 search (both recent and the full archive search endpoints) and have access to all but the experimental analyses in TCAT. We are also developing a scraper that will use the filtered stream and sample streams similar to TCAT (still in pre-release development).

You can read more about our plans for the future of TCAT here..
