auth_twitter_app: Twitter App API authentication

Value

A credential object containing an access token $auth and social media type descriptor $socialmedia set to "twitter". Object has the class names "credential" and "twitter".

Arguments

...

Additional parameters passed to function. Not used in this method.

if (FALSE) {
# twitter API access using an app bearer token
auth <- auth_twitter_app("xxxxxxxxxxxx")
}
