rtweet (version 0.1.0)

create_token: create_token

Description

Sends request to generate oauth 1.0 tokens. Twitter also allows uers to create user-only (oauth 2.0) access token. Unlike the 1.0 tokens, oath 2.0 tokens are not at all centered on a host user. Which means these tokens cannot be used to send information (follow requests, Twitter statuses, etc.). If you have no interest in those capabilities, then 2.0 oauth tokens do offer some higher rate limits. At the current time, the difference given the functions in this package is trivial, so I have yet to verified oauth 2.0 token method. Consequently, I encourage you to use 1.0 tokens.
