quickstart VS Twitter-API-v2-sample-code

I was able to get the Plaid API working with n8n an hour or go. I am going to build off of it to create exactly what I need. I used https://github.com/plaid/quickstart to spin up a sample app, login, link my account and get my access token. Then I can take that access token and include it in a HTTP post request to the Plaid API's get transactions endpoint. I can select transactions from a certain date range (today) as well as account balances and run it on a cron job once per day. Each transaction has a transactionId which will help me avoid duplicates. I can then push this info into Google Sheets, Notion, a database or wherever. If I use Google Sheets I can add graphs or link it to Google Data Studio and build a dashboard showing exactly what I need. Yes, it is more steps than using some existing application but the flexibility to create exactly what I need is worth it for me. I am not far enough yet to say if there will be any hiccups or not, but so far it is looking like clear skies ahead.

Also, looks like this might help: https://github.com/plaid/quickstart

git clone https://github.com/plaid/quickstart.git cd quickstart/python # Copy the .env.example file to .env, then fill # out PLAID_CLIENT_ID and PLAID_SECRET in .env cp .env.example .env # Install dependencies pip install -r requirements.txt # Start the backend app ./start.sh

They have sample code in javascript, python, and ruby for making a tweet. I tried javascript and executing through nodejs, but I kept getting errors on the very first line that I don't understand how to solve . It's about a package that needs to be installed but I installed it already (require ('got') is where the error occurs). Here's the code if it helps: https://github.com/twitterdev/Twitter-API-v2-sample-code/blob/main/Manage-Tweets/create_tweet.js

So today maybe it is not the best option. You can venture into twitter api.

Where have you read that? It does not at all correspond with what I know from their access tiers page and from their official account, which is that free users only get write-only access to Twitter, with a cap of 1500 tweets per month. That's much less than 100 tweets per minutes, and definitely not 100 requests which can (well, could, before) be many other things that posting a tweet, and which made the API useful for obtaining information from Twitter.

Diving through the Dev docs (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/getting-started/about-twitter-api)

Thx for the info. I heard Twitter was charging for API access now. Looks like there might be free, basic access but according to this, it's limited: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/getting-started/about-twitter-api

This is Wrong. This is about the old v1.1 API not the new v2 API https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/getting-st...

You can use the official Twitter API. You get access to a generous amount of data in the free tier.

tweepy.errors.Forbidden: 403 Forbidden 453 - You currently have Essential access which includes access to Twitter API v2 endpoints only. If you need access to this endpoint, you’ll need to apply for Elevated access via the Developer Portal.
