I have the following code:

async function getUploadMediaStatus(T, { mediaData }) {
  const { media_id_string } = mediaData;
  return T.get('media/upload', {
    command: 'STATUS',
    media_id: media_id_string,
  });
}

Invoked by:

const status = await getUploadMediaStatus(T, { mediaData });

The request completes but I get the following response:

> status
{ data: '', res: IncomingMessage }

Upon further probing, looks like the request failed:

> status.res.statusCode
400
> status.res.statusMessage
'Bad Request'

Looking at the Twit docs, this should be the correct way to perform a T.get.

I put debuggers in the Twit code and traced it to this line: https://github.com/ttezel/twit/blob/master/lib/twitter.js#L352

Looks like it was a success but the statusCode is still 400?

I was able to make a request manually using Postman

I've got the same issue.
The only way I've find to over pass the problem si to do a simple tweet post like
// Don't remove this. // If you remove this the bot doesn't work for mysterious reasons // he gona send a 187 error but don't care about this it's not important t.post('statuses/update', { status: 'hello world!' }, (err, data, response) => { console.log(data) })
And after you can post the picture with your function

This is realy weird but it's working fine for me

@pthieu the first time you gona use my function he will post a

hello world

But don't care and let it in your tweet lane and after he will work fine

@Quenntinne: Due to the architecture of my code, I don't need a long-running instance of a Twitter API client so I ended up using the twitter package just to do the status call and destroying the instance when done.
