A working and easy way to post tweets.

You must Login before you can answer or comment on any questions.

Hi all, I have to post tweet in my iOS application. I've searched a lot for this and found many ways but either they are on the old authentication mechanism or unfortunately don't work for me. I've tried the OauthAdapter and input all the required data but it always display message "Tweet not published" perhaps I don't know the exact steps to use it. Can somebody(who has done it himself) tell "How can I do this and which way I should go?" Thanks.

  • Great !!! This is the first code which tweeted for me. Thats what I wanted but I am facing a little problem. Using this code tweet publishes when using the code's own consumer keys, as soon as I insert my own app's credentials (consumer key & secret) it throws error Message : {error:"Couldn't authenticate with OAuth","request":"V1VStatusesVupdate.json"}. Can you tell why this is happening. I'll be really grateful. Thanks

  • I've registered my app with twitter and have all the required consumer keys and access token and My app's access level is set to Read and Write but it still it throws the above mentioned error while tweet is successfully published with the code's default consumer key and consumer secret. Also can this code share photos in status message or not? Thanks

You can probably the pull code you need out of Tweetanium since that's a fully-functional twitter client.

  • I would not recommend tweetanium since it requires xAuth not oAuth and I suspect twitter will not provide access.

  • May be it's problem from twitter or you must provide,Consumer key and Consumer secret and Callback URL and your apps's setting > Application type shoud Read, Write and Access direct messages

    or look at

  • I've provided all keys of my app and settings are already on "Read, Write and Access direct messages" but I didn't understand the "callback URL" what should I give here?
