You were right! I recreated API key and it is working. Another question, last time I had a visibility problem and you solved it with so RC version (1.0.3rc3: pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple pleroma-bot==1.0.3rc3) but this link is not working any more.

Tnx, I think it is working :)

This is my config.yml
...
pleroma_base_url: https://salocha.online
max_tweets: 10
twitter_token: xxx
users:

• twitter_username: retroscifiart
  pleroma_username: Retroscifiart
  pleroma_token: xxx
  visibility: "public"

I'm not sure about pleroma_token is it access token when using step 3 from here: https://tinysubversions.com/notes/mastodon-bot/ (there is access token and refresh token).

Yeah, pleroma_token's value should be the value of the access_token:

requests.exceptions.HTTPError: 401 Client Error: Unauthorized for url: https://api.twitter.com/2/users/by/username/retroscifiart?user.fields=pinned_tweet_id&expansions=pinned_tweet_id&tweet.fields=entities

However, it looks like the issue it's with the twitter_token, for whatever reason.
Is it the same token that was working before? Please check there are no trailing spaces or something along those lines.

I've been trying to reproduce it with my tokens and the Twitter user you provided and so far I've not been able to run into a HTTP 401.

It could be potentially an issue on Twitter's side: https://twittercommunity.com/t/401-unauthorized-response-when-using-client-search-all-tweets-tweepy/169478

You can try regenerating your Twitter tokens on the developer portal and see if that makes any difference, make sure your project also has Elevated access.

There has been some further fixes, the latest release candidate is 1.0.3rc10:

pip install -i https://test.pypi.org/simple/ --extra-index-url https://pypi.org/simple pleroma-bot==1.0.3rc10

An stable release should be coming out soon but you can try running 1.0.3rc10 until then.

Great! If you run into any other problems, feel free to open a new issue. I'll close this one for now.
Have a nice day!
