REST API, regarding 403 error code?

We are posting Tweets to multiple accounts from same IP address using software application. And in response from twitter , we are getting 403 error code, API used by us is REST API.

Is there any limitations on IP address, because surely we are not crossing API post limit mentioned for REST API.

We are also not going above 140 characters.

Waiting for reply..

Thanks in advance..

Solution

  • If it is a recent error (since Jan 14th) you can try to add this:

    ConfigurationBuilder cb = new ConfigurationBuilder();
cb.setUseSSL(true); // <======== set use SSL

    Twitter added a requirement on January 14th to use SSL/HTTPS when using their API.

    The above code fixed it for me.
