All twitter proofs show as unreachable, but proof posts remain up

Open nuke-web3 opened this issue 4 years ago • 9 comments

Every person I follow with a twitter proof shows as unreachable, and many I ask report the same.

The proofs are still on twitter and can be viewed from the link on someone's profile.

Can confirm the above. As an example, I'm @haneefmubarak on keybase with a proof at https://twitter.com/ihtsae/status/1118954420790673408?s=19 but the error is still thrown.

@mlsteele do you know if this is related to the changes in 6788497ca585ca674a56416a4554db599c01c860?

sure is, fix is on the way

Should be fixed now. We changed the endpoint used to fetch tweets and it returns links to https://keybase.io in a different way, as t.co links. There may be other types of incompatibilities so do let us know if there's more twitter proofs that were passing before that are still failing.

Confirmed resolved. Regular and t.co links are the only kind generated by the Twitter API, so recommend to close issue as resolved.

Thanks for the rapid fix @mlsteele!

I still don't see anyone (myself included) as showing a provable Twitter account if I browse on https://keybase.io/. Should I, or is there something that still needs to be rolled out?

@bogosj you're right, the client works now but the server (so website) still doesn't. Fix is on the way for that too

Twitter proofs still - three years on - not working https://github.com/keybase/client/issues/25759#issuecomment-1826795820
