Hello Splunk community! I'm new to Splunk and I would like to be able to access and index data from my own Twitter account. It looks like the perfect example is the Twitted>input.py program. After taking a look at the README from the twitted folder, I successfully added the app to the Splunk web interface.
When I run:
python input.py
I'm prompted my username and password. I entered my personal Twitter account credentials but I was hit with
Initializing Splunk ..
Listening (and sending data to localhost:9001)..
Error: There was an error logging in to Twitter:
HTTP Error 401 (Unauthorized)
I came across this forum post:
http://answers.splunk.com/answers/74633/data-not-going-to-splunk
but after checking my .splunkrc file and making sure my original input.py file was unedited, everything seems like it should work.
Just for some additional info, I'm running Splunk enterprise 6.0, and using the python sdk 1.1. While I run this, I'm logged onto the Splunk web interface.
If anyone can offer a few words of advice, I would greatly appreciate it!
