DM failed

Post by qw20211202 »

I tested twitter DM, the log shows successful DM, but several of my test accounts did not actually receive private messages; the log has been submitted id~42279

ok it failed, program detected it, but the program took a flow checking the failed response, then when it got back to the DM module, it detected a 200 response and assumed it was correct

Code: Select all

{
	"errors": [{
		"code": 326,
		"message": "You are creating a Direct Messages group with users that do not follow you.",
		"sub_error_code": 1,
		"bounce_location": "/account/access?feature=dm_group"
	}]
}
I will need to get a better success metric for the next update



Regards,
Martin

As the error said, twitter wouldn't allow you to create that group,
You are creating a Direct Messages group with users that do not follow you
Whether you can create a group with users who do NOT follow you, I thought you could, but the error is clear, twitter is not allowing it for you.
