How to open file using Google drive api?

How do I start using Tweepy? I keep getting the 403 error.

• I am trying to develop a Twitter app using Python 2.7. I have absolutely no experience with Twitter development, and thus I've been trying to use online tutorials and resources to learn. I heard that Tweepy was really good, and so I downloaded Tweepy for Python 2.7 from https://pypi.python.org/pypi/tweepy/1.8 and I've been trying to use the tutorial on https://code.google.com/p/tweepy/wiki/GettingStarted. However, when I type in... import tweepy public_tweets = tweepy.api.public_timeline() for tweet in public_tweets: print tweet.text ...into a new Python file, I get an error: Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:/Users/Me/Desktop/http://HelloWorld.py", line 3, in <module> public_tweets = tweepy.api.public_timeline() File "C:/Users/Me/Desktop\tweepy\bhttp://inder.py", line 185, in _call return method.execute() File "C:/Users/Me/Desktop\tweepy\bhttp://inder.py", line 168, in execute raise TweepError(error_msg, resp) TweepError: Twitter error response: status code = 403 From what I looked up, error 403 is "Forbidden." I don't really know what that means or how to fix that. Could someone please help me? I would really appreciate it!

• Answer:

  I think a format like Stackoverflow would be more appropriate for questions like these. But I shall answer this question anyways as I faced the same problem. Apparently the public timeline feature in Tweepy has been broken since quite some time. You can find out more about that in the comments on the page you linked to: https://code.google.com/p/tweepy/wiki/GettingStarted Otherwise, I have been success in using Tweepy for posting status updates after OAuth login steps.
