did you create a Twitter application as the guidelines of Twitter api request? You also need Access Token and Access Secret. link @Malek Ben Salem

I reproduced the error and confirm my suspiscion, it has nothing to do with networking and everything to do with setting proper Twitter credentials. @Malek Ben Salem the only one thing I did was pick for property Twitter Endpoint called Firehose Endpoint and then you enter valid properties from the table above

Hi, I am having the same problem, and I tried regenerating the keys and token also deleting the Twitter App and re-creating it. Still getting same error. HTTP_ERROR: HTTP/1.1 401 authorization Required. will attempt to reconnect. ? After few attempts the processor stops running by final error as "STOPPED BY ERRORL Retries exhausted due to null. Will not attempt to reconnect"

Please helps

@Akthar Abdulbari you need to copy and paste the four properties from the twitter app exactly, making sure you dont have any empty spaces or funny characters.

Thanks @Artem Ervits, for the quick reach. I did tried coping pasting several times, making sure I dint miss out on anything. I even tried coping it to Notepad and then coping it back to Nifi. Still no luck.

@Akthar Abdulbari regenerate your keys in your twitter app like the other person did

[#9]

@Akthar Abdulbari, did you manage to get past this issue? I'm having the same problem and regenerating the keys does not solve it. I've posted a reply above with a link to my experience.

@Mustafa El-badry's reply about updating the clock in the sandbox solved my problem. Thanks.
