Unauthorized when POST to Tweets endpoint

https://twittercommunity.com/t/post-request-returning-error-401-unauthorized/162950/4

following the example in the README, let response = await client.get('tweets', { ids: id }) works as expected, but let response = await client.post('tweets', { text: message }) fails with { code: 401, details: 'Unauthorized' }. nodejs 17.2.0, windows.

It’s expected that POST should authenticate using the same method and send a tweet successfully.

Full code example:

const Twitter = require("twitter-v2")

const client = new Twitter({
  consumer_key: process.env.TWITTER_CONSUMER_KEY,
  consumer_secret: process.env.TWITTER_CONSUMER_SECRET,
  access_token_key: process.env.TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_KEY,
  access_token_secret: process.env.TWITTER_ACCESS_TOKEN_SECRET
});

async function sendTweet(message) {
  try {
    const response = await client.post('tweets', { text: message })
    console.log(response)
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err)
  }
}

async function getTweet(id) {
  try {
    const response = await client.get('tweets', { ids: id })
    console.log(response)
  } catch (err) {
    console.error(err)
  }
}

sendTweet('test tweet!')

getTweet('1228393702244134912')

I changed to twitter-api-v2 and that works perfectly

I found it. I was confusing about the user flow authentication. But how i will using my own account its not necessary!

Thanks for the response men!
