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

Thanks for your help, after regenerating both Consumer Key and Access Token and my Host PC date was 2 min off, updated that as well. After all the changes, nifi is working.

Thanks again @Neeraj Sabharwal and @Artem Ervits.

Hi,

if you are still facing this issue and you already tried to regenerate the key and it didn't work

try to make sure of the clock in your sandbox is set correctly to do so run the following :

1. yum install -y ntp

2. service ntpd stop

3. ntpdate pool.ntp.org

4. service ntpd start

Regenerating 'Consumer Key/Secret' and Access token didn't help. Tried ntpd clock time adjustment. It worked ! !

Thanks guys !!

Thanks a ton! Worked for me as well. As he said, if regeneration of the keys didn't work. This should probably fix the issue.

I had the same problem, I tired regenerating access key and token

but with no luck

what I found later .. that the time and date on the sandbox was off

so I update the time to the correct one

and create a new app in twitter api

and it works fine
