Tweepy: tweepy.error.tweeperror 'code' 215 'message' 'bad authentication data.'

问题

I'm unsure what is going wrong in here. The following code was working until 2 days ago. I'm using tweepy version number 3.6.0 on python3 in jupyter notebook. Now, when I execute the code given below, I keep getting the error, TweepError: [{'code': 215, 'message': 'Bad Authentication data.'}]. What am I doing wrong? I've already looked at similar posts 1, 2,3,4,5 and 6 but no solution. Note, I have also regenerated the keys, still the error persists.

The code is;

import tweepy
ckey = 'xxx'
csecret = 'xxx'
atoken = 'xxx'
asecret = 'xxx'

# OAuth process, using the keys and tokens
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(ckey, csecret)
auth.set_access_token(atoken, asecret)
# Creation of the actual interface, using authentication
api = tweepy.API(auth)
# collect tweets on #MRT
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search,q="MRT",count=100,
                           lang="en",rpp=100,
                           since="2017-04-03").items():
  print (tweet.created_at, tweet.text)

On executing this code returns the following errors,

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

TweepError: Twitter error response: status code = 400

Any advice will be helpful.

回答1:

I copied your code and executed it in my system and I was not able to find any errors. I'm using tweepy 3.6.0 and Python 3.5.2. There are two edits that I have done to your code.

import tweepy
ACCESS_TOKEN = "#####"
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = "#####"
CONSUMER_KEY = "####" 
CONSUMER_SECRET = "#####"

# OAuth process, using the keys and tokens
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(CONSUMER_KEY, CONSUMER_SECRET)
auth.set_access_token(ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET)
# Creation of the actual interface, using authentication
api = tweepy.API(auth, wait_on_rate_limit=True, wait_on_rate_limit_notify=True)
# collect tweets on     #MRT
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search,q="MRT",count=100,
                       lang="en",rpp=100).items():
    print (tweet.created_at, tweet.text)

Notice the two parameters tweepy.API: wait_on_rate_limit and wait_on_rate_limit_notify. These two parameters are important if you want to keep the tweets streaming on because the search API only gives you a certain amount of tweets per request.

You have a TweepError with status code 400. According to the documentation, it says:

The request was invalid or cannot be otherwise served. An accompanying error message will explain further. Requests without authentication are considered invalid and will yield this response.

A Possible explanation is that the your twitter API keys do not authenticate anymore because you have been requesting beyond the rate limits of twitter.

Hopefully this helps.

回答2:

I solved the problem using double quotes, I see that you used single quotes

CONSUMER_KEY = "xxx";

回答3:

I had the same problem. Regenerating the Keys and tokens solved the problem.
