Using TwitterOauth to get user timeline, always returns "page not found", code 34

Question

I'm trying to get the user timeline for my twitter timeline, and it keeps giving me the return "page not found". The code is below:

require_once("twitteroauth/autoload.php");
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;

$connection = new TwitterOAuth($this->consumer_key, $this->consumer_secret, $this->oauth_access_token, $this->oauth_access_token_secret);
$data = $connection->get("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=".$this->username."&count=".$this->limit); 
return $data; 

Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong, any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Answer 1

I just tried it, and initially ran into the same issue. Reading This Documentation, it appears that there is a different format for making API requests with the TwitterOAuth library.

The example in this post was helpful as well: How to get the 3,200 tweets (Twitter API 1.1)

Try this, it worked for me:

require_once("twitteroauth/autoload.php");
use Abraham\TwitterOAuth\TwitterOAuth;

$connection = new TwitterOAuth($this->consumer_key, $this->consumer_secret, $this->oauth_access_token, $this->oauth_access_token_secret);


$data = $connection->get("statuses/user_timeline", array('count' => $this->limit, 'exclude_replies' => true, 'screen_name' => $this->username));

return $data;
