Here's a simple Python script that sends out a tweet using your provided credentials as a template. We'll be using the tweepy library, which is a popular Python library for interacting with the Twitter API.

Steps: Install the tweepy library if you haven't already:

pip install tweepy

If you're mainly concerned pip breaking your system-wide packsges or are encountering the externally-managed-environment error message you can always use a virtual environment . This ensures that your project dependencies (including Python versions and libraries) remain isolated from the system .

Create the virtual environment and activate the virtual environment using:

python3 -m venv myenv
source myenv/bin/activate

After activating, try the installation again with pip:

pip install tweepy

Set your Twitter credentials as environment variables (or replace os.getenv with your actual credentials directly in the code).

Here's the script to send a tweet:

import os
import tweepy

# Replace these with your actual credentials
API_KEY = os.getenv("API_KEY")
API_SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("API_SECRET_KEY")
ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN")
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET")

# Authenticate to the Twitter API
auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(API_KEY, API_SECRET_KEY)
auth.set_access_token(ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET)

# Create an API object
api = tweepy.API(auth)

# Send a tweet
tweet = "Hello, Twitter! #myfirsttweet"
api.update_status(status=tweet)

print("Tweet sent successfully!")

Explanation: Environment Variables: The script uses os.getenv() to read your Twitter API credentials from environment variables. Make sure you have set them up before running the script. You can do this in your terminal or set them in a .env file (using python-dotenv if necessary).

Example:

export API_KEY="your-api-key"
export API_SECRET_KEY="your-api-secret-key"
export ACCESS_TOKEN="your-access-token"
export ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET="your-access-token-secret"

Authentication: We authenticate using the OAuthHandler from tweepy and pass the credentials to authenticate your app.

Sending the Tweet: The api.update_status(status=tweet) sends a tweet to your Twitter account.

Message: The variable tweet contains the message that will be tweeted. You can customize this text.

Notes:

API Keys: You'll need to create a Twitter Developer account and create an application to get your API keys (API key, secret key, access token, and secret token). Environment Variables: If you don't want to set them manually, you can create a .env file and use the python-dotenv library to load the variables from the file.

First error message

TypeError: Consumer key must be string or bytes, not NoneType

It looks like the error am encountering TypeError Consumer key must be string or bytes, not NoneTypeis caused by my API credentials (API key, secret key, access token, etc.) not being correctly set, which results in the NoneType error. This happens when os.getenv() doesn't retrieve the credentials because they aren't set as environment variables, or there is a mistake in how they're defined.

Alternative Approach

However, if am looking for alternative methods to send a tweet without using tweepy, you can use requests (which is more lightweight than tweepy) or even use curl or wget commands directly in Python.

  1. Using requests Library (Simple Approach) Instead of using tweepy, you can use requests to make HTTP requests to the Twitter API directly. You'll need to authenticate via OAuth 1.0a and then send a POST request to tweet.

Steps: Install the requests and requests_oauthlib libraries:

pip install requests requests_oauthlib

Create a Python script to authenticate and send a tweet:

Python Script with requests:

import os
import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

# Replace these with your actual credentials
API_KEY = os.getenv("API_KEY")
API_SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("API_SECRET_KEY")
ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN")
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET")

# Authenticate to Twitter API using OAuth1
auth = OAuth1(API_KEY, API_SECRET_KEY, ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET)

# The URL to post a tweet
# Twitter API v2 URL for creating a tweet
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"


# The status (tweet) you want to send  
# Correct field 'text'
status = "Hello, Twitter! #tweetingwithrequests"

# Send the tweet
response = requests.post(url, data={'text': status}, auth=auth)

# Check if the request was successful
if response.status_code == 200:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Failed to send tweet: {response.status_code}")
  1. Using curl Command in Python You can also use the subprocess module to run curl commands from within your Python script. This method requires you to construct the correct curl command for Twitter's API.

Python Script with curl:

import os
import subprocess

# Replace these with your actual credentials
API_KEY = os.getenv("API_KEY")
API_SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("API_SECRET_KEY")
ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN")
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET")

# Construct the curl command
tweet_text = "Hello, Twitter! #tweetingwithcurl"

curl_command = f"""
curl -X POST -H "Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key=\"{API_KEY}\", oauth_token=\"{ACCESS_TOKEN}\", oauth_signature_method=\"HMAC-SHA1\", oauth_version=\"1.0\", oauth_signature=\"{API_SECRET_KEY}\"" \
--data-urlencode "status={tweet_text}" \
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json
"""

# Run the curl command using subprocess
process = subprocess.run(curl_command, shell=True, capture_output=True)

# Check the output
if process.returncode == 0:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Failed to send tweet: {process.stderr.decode()}")
  1. Using wget Command in Python The wget command can also be used in a similar way to curl, but wget is less commonly used for API requests since it's more geared toward downloading files.

However, you can use wget to send a tweet by constructing a similar request and running it with subprocess.

Python Script with wget (Less Preferred):

import os
import subprocess

# Replace these with your actual credentials
API_KEY = os.getenv("API_KEY")
API_SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("API_SECRET_KEY")
ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN")
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = os.getenv("ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET")

# Construct the wget command
tweet_text = "Hello, Twitter! #tweetingwithwget"

wget_command = f"""
wget --method=POST --header="Authorization: OAuth oauth_consumer_key={API_KEY}, oauth_token={ACCESS_TOKEN}, oauth_signature_method=HMAC-SHA1, oauth_version=1.0, oauth_signature={API_SECRET_KEY}" \
--body-data="status={tweet_text}" \
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/update.json
"""

# Run the wget command using subprocess
process = subprocess.run(wget_command, shell=True, capture_output=True)

# Check the output
if process.returncode == 0:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Failed to send tweet: {process.stderr.decode()}")

For simplicity and ease of use, I recommend using the requests method, which is easy to manage and avoids the complexity of handling the curl or wget commands in Python. If you still want to stick with tweepy, you just need to ensure that your environment variables are set correctly or directly hard-code the credentials (though not recommended for security reasons).

Why Tweepy is Effective:

The most effective and efficient method of sending tweets programmatically depends on your goals and the context in which you are working. Here’s a breakdown of the best methods in terms of ease of use, flexibility, and scalability.

  1. Using Tweepy (Recommended for Most Use Cases) Despite the error you're facing, Tweepy remains one of the most effective and straightforward libraries for interacting with the Twitter API. Once you have it set up correctly, it simplifies the process of sending tweets and interacting with Twitter's other API endpoints.

Handles OAuth Authentication Automatically: Tweepy manages OAuth1 (and OAuth2 in some cases) for you, which simplifies the authentication process. Feature-Rich: It supports not only tweeting but also reading timelines, following users, searching tweets, and other interactions with the Twitter API. Community Support: Tweepy has strong community support and regular updates, which makes it a reliable choice for interacting with Twitter.

It’s the official library for working with Twitter’s API, and it abstracts much of the complexity. Once you resolve the environment variable issue, it will make interacting with the Twitter API a lot easier and more maintainable. It has built-in support for common tasks like sending tweets, reading timelines, following users, etc. If you don’t need all the features of Tweepy and just want lightweight control, requests with OAuth is a good alternative.

If you need more advanced features, flexibility, or control, or you want to avoid any third-party library altogether, curl is an option, but it’s not the most effective for long-term development.

Let me know if you need more clarification or help with setting this up!

Twitter API v2 Postman collection,

To automate sending out tweets using the provided Twitter API v2 Postman collection here’s how you can proceed with the schema and the Postman setup. The Postman environment will allow you to easily automate requests to Twitter API endpoints, such as sending tweets.

I'll walk you through how you can set this up programmatically in Python using the Postman collection schema and a REST API approach.

Steps to Automate Sending Tweets Using Postman Schema Setup Postman Environment:

Open Postman and create a new Environment for your project (e.g., "Twitter API v2"). In the environment, add the following variables:

consumer_key: Your Twitter API consumer key.
consumer_secret: Your Twitter API consumer secret.
access_token: Your Twitter API access token.
token_secret: Your Twitter API access token secret.
bearer_token: Your bearer token (optional depending on the request).

Use Postman Collection for Twitter API v2:

Download the Postman collection (which you provided). Add the collection to Postman by clicking on "Import" and selecting the collection JSON file or pasting the collection JSON. This will allow you to send requests to the Twitter API v2 endpoints. Automate Tweet Posting via Postman Collection (API Request):

In the Postman collection, look for the POST request method to post a tweet. Ensure that the environment variables are set, and pass the necessary parameters (such as text) in the body of the request. The request URL for sending a tweet will look like this: https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets You’ll need to authorize the request using OAuth1.0 or Bearer Token. Convert Postman Collection to Python (Automating with requests): If you want to automate this further in Python using the Postman environment values (e.g., consumer keys and tokens), you can directly replicate the same functionality with the requests library and OAuth or Bearer token authentication.

Example Python Code to Automate Tweet: Here’s an example of how you can send a tweet programmatically using Python and the Postman schema:

import os
import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

# Replace these with your actual credentials
API_KEY = os.getenv("consumer_key")  # Your consumer key from Postman environment
API_SECRET_KEY = os.getenv("consumer_secret")  # Your consumer secret from Postman environment
ACCESS_TOKEN = os.getenv("access_token")  # Your access token from Postman environment
ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET = os.getenv("token_secret")  # Your access token secret from Postman environment

# Authenticate using OAuth 1.0a
auth = OAuth1(API_KEY, API_SECRET_KEY, ACCESS_TOKEN, ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET)

# URL to post a tweet (Twitter API v2 endpoint)
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

# Payload for the tweet content
data = {
    "text": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script!"  # Your tweet content
}

# Send POST request to Twitter API
response = requests.post(url, json=data, auth=auth)

# Check if the tweet was successfully sent
if response.status_code == 201:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")
    print(response.text)

Breakdown of the Python Code: OAuth Authentication: We're using OAuth1 for authentication, which is typical for interacting with the Twitter API. The credentials are fetched from environment variables. API Endpoint: We're using the https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets endpoint to send the tweet. Data: The tweet's content is passed as a JSON payload with the key status. Error Handling: We print out a success message if the status code is 201, or print the error message if something goes wrong. Running the Script: Ensure your environment variables (consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, and token_secret) are set correctly. Run the Python script, and it will post the tweet to your Twitter account. Further Automations: If you want to automate tweets on a schedule (e.g., sending a tweet every hour), you can schedule the script to run at specific intervals using cron (on Linux/macOS) or Task Scheduler (on Windows).

Error: 403
{
  "title": "Unsupported Authentication",
  "detail": "Authenticating with Unknown is forbidden for this endpoint.  Supported authentication types are [OAuth 1.0a User Context, OAuth 2.0 User Context].",
  "type": "https://api.twitter.com/2/problems/unsupported-authentication",
  "status": 403
}

The error message you are seeing indicates that the authentication method you're using (presumably OAuth 1.0a) is not supported for the endpoint you're trying to use. Specifically, Twitter API v2 endpoints may require OAuth 2.0 User Context, which is a different form of authentication.

Here's how you can solve it: Use OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token (instead of OAuth 1.0a) for Twitter API v2:

For many Twitter API v2 endpoints, you will need to use OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token for authentication rather than OAuth 1.0a. You can generate a bearer token through the Twitter Developer Dashboard, under your app settings.

Modify your code to use OAuth 2.0:

Here's an example of how to modify your existing code to use OAuth 2.0 for authentication:

Steps: Create a Bearer Token:

Go to the Twitter Developer Portal. Under your App's settings, you can generate a Bearer Token for OAuth 2.0. Update your script to use the Bearer Token:

import os
import requests

# Your Bearer Token
BEARER_TOKEN = os.getenv("BEARER_TOKEN")

# If Bearer Token is not set, print an error
if not BEARER_TOKEN:
    print("Error: Bearer Token is not set.")
    exit()

# Twitter API URL
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

# The tweet data
data = {
    "status": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 2.0!"
}

headers = {
    "Authorization": f"Bearer {BEARER_TOKEN}",
    "Content-Type": "application/json"
}

# Sending the POST request
response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)

if response.status_code == 201:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")
    print(response.json())

Explanation of Changes: Instead of using OAuth1 for authentication, we use Bearer Token authentication. The Bearer Token is passed via the Authorization header as Bearer . This method should resolve the "Unsupported Authentication" error you're seeing since it's more suited for Twitter API v2. Setting the Bearer Token: Make sure you have the Bearer Token set in your environment:

export BEARER_TOKEN="your_bearer_token_here"
If you're using a .env file, you can load it using python-dotenv as follows:

from dotenv import load_dotenv
import os

load_dotenv()

BEARER_TOKEN = os.getenv("BEARER_TOKEN")
Test Again:
Try running your script after making the changes. The 403 error should no longer appear, and your tweet should successfully be posted.

Load credentials

credentials = load_credentials("Twitter.postman_environment.json")

Extract the bearer token from the loaded credentials

BEARER_TOKEN = credentials.get("bearer_token")

Ensure we have the bearer token

if not BEARER_TOKEN: print("Error: Bearer Token is missing.") exit()

Twitter API URL

url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

The tweet data

data = { "status": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 2.0!" }

headers = { "Authorization": f"Bearer {BEARER_TOKEN}", "Content-Type": "application/json" }

Sending the POST request

response = requests.post(url, json=data, headers=headers)

if response.status_code == 201: print("Tweet sent successfully!") else: print(f"Error: {response.status_code}") print(response.json()) Explanation: Load the JSON File:

The load_credentials function opens and reads the Twitter.postman_environment.json file, which contains the Twitter API credentials. It loads the JSON data and parses the values array to extract the keys (consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, token_secret, and bearer_token). Check for Bearer Token:

The script looks for the bearer_token in the loaded credentials. If it’s missing, the script exits and displays an error message. Send the Tweet:

The script sends a POST request to the Twitter API using the bearer_token for authentication. Step 3: Run the Script Make sure the Twitter.postman_environment.json file is in the correct location and run the script. It will read the credentials from the file, authenticate with the Twitter API, and post the tweet.

Let me know if this works for you!

test2.py

Error: 403
{'title': 'Unsupported Authentication', 'detail': 'Authenticating with OAuth 2.0 Application-Only is forbidden for this endpoint.  Supported authentication types are [OAuth 1.0a User Context, OAuth 2.0 User Context].', 'type': 'https://api.twitter.com/2/problems/unsupported-authentication', 'status': 403}

The error message you are seeing indicates that the authentication method you're using (OAuth 2.0 Application-Only) is not allowed for this specific Twitter API endpoint. Instead, you need to use OAuth 1.0a User Context or OAuth 2.0 User Context, both of which require user-level authentication (i.e., involving the user's access token and secret, in addition to the consumer key and secret).

To resolve this, you can update your authentication method to use OAuth 1.0a User Context. Here's how you can modify the script to use this type of authentication:

Updated Script with OAuth 1.0a User Context

import json
import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

# Load credentials from the Twitter.postman_environment.json file
def load_credentials(filename):
    with open(filename, "r") as file:
        data = json.load(file)
    
    credentials = {}
    
    # Extract values from the JSON file
    for item in data["values"]:
        credentials[item["key"]] = item["value"]
    
    return credentials

# Load credentials
credentials = load_credentials("Twitter.postman_environment.json")

# Extract the necessary credentials
consumer_key = credentials.get("consumer_key")
consumer_secret = credentials.get("consumer_secret")
access_token = credentials.get("access_token")
access_token_secret = credentials.get("token_secret")

# Ensure all credentials are present
if not all([consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret]):
    print("Error: Missing credentials.")
    exit()

# OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication
auth = OAuth1(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret)

# Twitter API URL for creating a tweet
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

# The tweet data
data = {
    "status": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 1.0a User Context!"
}

# Sending the POST request
response = requests.post(url, json=data, auth=auth)

# Check the response
if response.status_code == 201:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")
    print(response.json())
Key Changes:
OAuth 1.0a Authentication:

I've used requests_oauthlib.OAuth1 to set up OAuth 1.0a authentication, which requires the consumer key, consumer secret, access token, and access token secret. This method is used for OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication, which is required for posting tweets. Data Structure:

The status key in the data dictionary represents the tweet text. URL and Response Check:

The script sends the tweet using POST to the https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets endpoint. It then checks if the tweet was successfully posted by looking for a 201 status code. Requirements: Make sure you have requests and requests_oauthlib installed: pip install requests requests_oauthlib Next Steps: Run the script again. If the credentials are correct and you are using the proper OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication, the script should successfully send a tweet.

Error: 400
{'errors': [{'message': '$.status: is not defined in the schema and the schema does not allow additional properties'}], 'title': 'Invalid Request', 'detail': 'One or more parameters to your request was invalid.', 'type': 'https://api.twitter.com/2/problems/invalid-request'}

The error you're receiving ($.status: is not defined in the schema) is caused by sending the status field, which is not valid for the Twitter API v2 endpoint for creating tweets. The Twitter API v2 uses a different structure than v1.1 for posting tweets, and the field for the tweet text is text (not status).

import json
import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

# Load credentials from the Twitter.postman_environment.json file
def load_credentials(filename):
    with open(filename, "r") as file:
        data = json.load(file)
    
    credentials = {}
    
    # Extract values from the JSON file
    for item in data["values"]:
        credentials[item["key"]] = item["value"]
    
    return credentials

# Load credentials
credentials = load_credentials("Twitter.postman_environment.json")

# Extract the necessary credentials
consumer_key = credentials.get("consumer_key")
consumer_secret = credentials.get("consumer_secret")
access_token = credentials.get("access_token")
access_token_secret = credentials.get("token_secret")

# Ensure all credentials are present
if not all([consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret]):
    print("Error: Missing credentials.")
    exit()

# OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication
auth = OAuth1(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret)

# Twitter API v2 URL for creating a tweet
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

# The tweet data - use the "text" field instead of "status"
data = {
    "status": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 1.0a User Context!"  # Incorrect field 'status'
}

# Corrected to use the "text" field
data = {
    "text": "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 1.0a User Context!"  # Correct field 'text'
}

# Sending the POST request
response = requests.post(url, json=data, auth=auth)

# Check the response
if response.status_code == 201:
    print("Tweet sent successfully!")
else:
    print(f"Error: {response.status_code}")
    print(response.json())

Key changes: Correct field for text: The tweet body should be sent under the "text" key (not "status") in the JSON payload. Expected Behavior: This script will now correctly send a tweet with the text "Hello, this is a tweet from my Python script using OAuth 1.0a User Context!". If you try running this version of the script, it should fix the issue and send the tweet successfully.

Sleep Mechanism

Add a sleep mechanism to wait for the desired frequency (e.g., 10 minutes between tweets). Read and send tweets from the tweets.txt file line by line. Track tweet IDs in a JSON file to ensure duplicates aren't sent. Updated Python Script:

import json
import time
import random
import requests
from requests_oauthlib import OAuth1

# Load credentials from the Twitter.postman_environment.json file
def load_credentials(filename):
    with open(filename, "r") as file:
        data = json.load(file)
    
    credentials = {}
    
    # Extract values from the JSON file
    for item in data["values"]:
        credentials[item["key"]] = item["value"]
    
    return credentials

# Load credentials
credentials = load_credentials("Twitter.postman_environment.json")

# Extract the necessary credentials
consumer_key = credentials.get("consumer_key")
consumer_secret = credentials.get("consumer_secret")
access_token = credentials.get("access_token")
access_token_secret = credentials.get("token_secret")

# Ensure all credentials are present
if not all([consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret]):
    print("Error: Missing credentials.")
    exit()

# OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication
auth = OAuth1(consumer_key, consumer_secret, access_token, access_token_secret)

# Twitter API URL for creating a tweet
url = "https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets"

# Load tweet IDs from the log to avoid duplicates
def load_sent_tweet_ids():
    if os.path.exists('sent_tweet_ids.json'):
        with open('sent_tweet_ids.json', 'r') as file:
            return json.load(file)
    return []

# Save tweet ID to the log after posting
def save_sent_tweet_id(tweet_id):
    sent_tweet_ids = load_sent_tweet_ids()
    sent_tweet_ids.append(tweet_id)
    with open('sent_tweet_ids.json', 'w') as file:
        json.dump(sent_tweet_ids, file)

# Post a tweet to Twitter API
def post_tweet(tweet_text):
    # Prepare the payload (correct the key to 'text' for the new API version)
    data = {
        "status": tweet_text
    }

    response = requests.post(url, json=data, auth=auth)

    if response.status_code == 201:
        print("Tweet posted successfully!")
        tweet_id = response.json().get("data").get("id")
        save_sent_tweet_id(tweet_id)
        print(f"Tweet ID: {tweet_id}")
        return True
    else:
        print(f"Failed to post tweet: {response.text}")
        return False

# Read tweets line-by-line from the file and post them
def send_tweets_periodically():
    with open("tweets.txt", "r") as file:
        tweets = file.readlines()

    # Load previously sent tweet IDs to avoid reposting
    sent_tweet_ids = load_sent_tweet_ids()

    for tweet in tweets:
        tweet = tweet.strip()  # Remove leading/trailing whitespaces
        
        if tweet:  # Skip empty lines
            print(f"Selected tweet: {tweet}")
            
            # If this tweet has not been sent before, send it
            if tweet not in sent_tweet_ids:
                if post_tweet(tweet):
                    # Wait for 10 minutes (600 seconds) before posting next tweet
                    time.sleep(600)  # Change the sleep time to your desired interval
            else:
                print(f"Skipping duplicate tweet: {tweet}")

# Main function to run the script
def main():
    send_tweets_periodically()

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

Explanation: Loading Credentials:

The load_credentials() function loads credentials from Twitter.postman_environment.json. Loading and Saving Sent Tweet IDs:

The load_sent_tweet_ids() function loads previously sent tweet IDs from a JSON file (sent_tweet_ids.json). The save_sent_tweet_id() function appends the tweet ID to the list of sent tweets. Posting Tweets:

The post_tweet() function sends a tweet using the requests library. After posting successfully, it logs the tweet's ID. Send Tweets Periodically:

The send_tweets_periodically() function reads the tweets.txt file line by line, ensuring that no tweet is repeated by checking the sent_tweet_ids.json file. It waits for 10 minutes (600 seconds) between sending tweets using time.sleep(600) (adjustable). Skipping Duplicate Tweets:

Before posting, the script checks if the tweet has already been posted using the sent_tweet_ids.json file. Key Files: tweets.txt: Contains a list of tweets to post (one tweet per line). sent_tweet_ids.json: Logs tweet IDs to avoid posting duplicates. Example sent_tweet_ids.json: [ "1472504506813625347", "1472504606923865061" ] How to Run: Ensure you have your tweets.txt file ready with the tweets listed one per line. Make sure you have the correct credentials in the Twitter.postman_environment.json file. Run the script by executing: python your_script_name.py The script will send tweets every 10 minutes from the list, ensuring no duplicates.
