Bad Authentication Data when trying to get request token

[siddharthgopi]

var twitterAPI = require('node-twitter-api');
var twitter = new twitterAPI({
  consumer_key: "removed",
  consumer_secret: "removed",
  callback: 'http://52.43.53.156:3000'
});

response:

Error getting OAuth request token : [object Object]
statusCode=400
data={"errors":[{"code":215,"message":"Bad Authentication data."}]}

My callback in this code is the same as what i entered in the twitter web interface.

Is it correct that I have to take consumer_key and consumer_secret without any further modification directly from the twitter dashboard? as in the api_key and api_secret in https://apps.twitter.com/app/12851437/keys

• All the twitter libraries are giving the same bad authentication error.
• Does node version matter? [note: tried running it on https://runkit.com/npm/node-twitter-api. same bad authentication.]
• I'm running express 4.14.0

Yes, you need to use the API key and API secret. What exactly have you been trying to do, when you received the error?
