Calling Twitter API from Google Apps Script

Question

I am trying to call Twitter's REST API from Google Apps Script. The code I am using is copied one to one from here: https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/services/external

and specifically:

function test() {
  var consumerKey = 'XXXX';     // Copied from my twitter app setting.
  var consumerSecret = 'XXXXX'; // Copied from my twitter app setting.
  var oauthConfig = UrlFetchApp.addOAuthService('twitter');
  oauthConfig.setAccessTokenUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token');
  oauthConfig.setRequestTokenUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token');
  oauthConfig.setAuthorizationUrl('http://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize');
  oauthConfig.setConsumerKey(consumerKey);
  oauthConfig.setConsumerSecret(consumerSecret);
  var options = {
      'oAuthServiceName' : 'twitter',
      'oAuthUseToken' : 'always'
  };

  var url = 'https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?count=5&include_entities=false&result_type=recent&q=hello';
  var response = UrlFetchApp.fetch(url, options);
  var tweets = JSON.parse(response.getContentText());
  Logger.log(tweets)  
}

Nevertheless, I get Oauth ERROR every time I run it. My settings in the twitter app allows for "Read and Write"

Any suggestions

Answer 1

Just go to your twitter application and set the callback url as https://script.google.com

Answer 2

This is now best handled through the following open source Google Apps Script library:

The example in the documentation is twitter itself (because it's probably the only remaining user of oauth v1 out there...)
