Nice tutorial. I followed your steps. However, I am not able to stream the data from a private user.
I can look at private user tweets in browser. Any ideas as how to get private user tweets?

Hi @psnehal I haven't taken a look at it yet. A quick search points to this: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46909484/twitter-api-how-to-get-protected-tweets/46910675 . It seems that:

User timelines belonging to protected users may only be requested when the authenticated user either “owns” the timeline or is an approved follower of the owner.

More info from the docs
