Can anybody suggest a solution - on RapidMiner Studio 9.10 I get a Twitter API error ONLY when using the User Details and User Relations operators. The same Twitter connections work perfectly fine for the Search Twitter and Twitter User Statuses Operators. The detail about the error is very sketchy as it only indicates "Error on Connecting to Twitter API. There was an error connecting to the Twitter API. Please check your settings and retry the request."

    Hi,

    unfortunatley since X/Twitter changed it's API and corresponding policy, free reading access to X/Twitter no longer exists. This is also the reason why we deprecated the pre-built Twitter operators.

    Like any other RESTful API, you can still access twitter using the operators from e.g. the Web Mining Extension.

    See: Twitter API Documentation | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform
