Twitter Media Upload not working

[douglascorrea]

I saw that oauth.io update home page and received newsletter about new features and so on. It means these issue will be considered? (At least some feedback about)?

The issue is the endpoint you call is on upload.twitter.com while oauth.io is actually making a call to api.twitter.com when you're giving a relative endpoint.

You can try with this:

r.post('https://upload.twitter.com/1.1/media/upload.json', { 
   data: {
       media_data: imgBase64
   }
})

btw, note that if you're using base64 file to upload, you need to use media_data and not media which is used for raw data file.

I got normal response using this:

{"media_id":667134289646133248,"media_id_string":"667134289646133248","size":793,"expires_after_secs":86400,"image":{"image_type":"image\/png","w":16,"h":16}}

I'm trying to upload media to twitter as well. I tried using this endpoint, but I keep getting this error:

XMLHttpRequest cannot load https://oauth.io/request/twitter/%2F1.1%2Fmedia%2Fupload.json. No 'Access-Control-Allow-Origin' header is present on the requested resource. Origin 'http://localhost:8080' is therefore not allowed access. The response had HTTP status code 413.

I'm having the same response status 413. My file is a bit more than 1Mo. It works with a smaller file. I dont understand why the request is too long since the Twitter Api documentation is talking about 5Mo limitation.

The chunk method is prefered by twitter. Therefore I've finally adapted my code and it works thanks to this code I adapted:

If you need more info let me know.
