I want to test the Twitter api for an app in the future. I was trying to test it with Postman but I get this error all the time.
"code": 32, "message": "Could not authenticate you."
I made an new app from my developers account and put all the generated tokens into postman like this:
My parameters are the same like this screenshot: (with the correct tokens)
Do I need to check something important? I hope someone has already faced this problem or just can help me with this.
Under the "Authorization" tab in Postman, choose "Request Headers" from the "Add authorization data to:" drop down.
Useful reference: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/basics/authentication/guides/authorizing-a-request.html
Error 32 "Could not authenticate you" can also happen when the content of the tweet triggers the Twitter censorship filter.
For anyone still having issues...
My problem was that the Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded header was not set for my POST request when testing with Postman. Once I added that, all was well.
Another thing to check is the ! character in the status that's being posted. Ensure it's encoded correctly.
