Ticket: Unable to Add Provider, Connection Issue

@Auxaldeus Just created a ticket
Question: Unable to add X provider: Could not connect to the platform
Attempted: Tried it using tweepy python script and it works with the following:

newapi = tweepy.Client(
    bearer_token=BEARER_TOKEN,
    access_token=ACCESS_KEY,
    access_token_secret=ACCESS_SECRET,
    consumer_key=CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumer_secret=CONSUMER_SECRET,
)

newapi = tweepy.Client(
    bearer_token=BEARER_TOKEN,
    access_token=ACCESS_KEY,
    access_token_secret=ACCESS_SECRET,
    consumer_key=CONSUMER_KEY,
    consumer_secret=CONSUMER_SECRET,
)

X_API_KEY=CONSUMER_KKEY X_API_SECRET=CONSUMER_SECRET
Working On: Setup

I also tried setting X_CLIENT to OAUTH2.0 CLIENT ID and X_SECRET to OAUTH2.0 CLIENT SECRET Self Hosting btw

@Mod 🔥 please help @Auxaldeus

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

sup

Nevo David•3mo ago

api key and secret is not consumer key and consumer secret, you need client id and client secret it's not the same things

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

Can you clarify? I followed the instruction from here

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

https://docs.postiz.com/providers/x

Postiz Documentation

X – Postiz Docs

How to add X to your system

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

Click on "Regenerate" inside "Consumer Keys" and copy the API Key and API Key Secret. Open .env file and add the following: X_API_KEY="" X_API_SECRET="" the env file I'm editing from: /var/lib/docker/volumes/socials_postiz-config/_data/postiz.env

Nevo David•3mo ago

Do you see this section? @Auxaldeus

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

yes

Nevo David•3mo ago

BTW, what did you put in: "Callback URI / Redirect URL" ?

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

http://localhost:4200/integrations/social/x

Nevo David•3mo ago

What do you have in

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

So this is supposed to be set to X_API_KEY and X_API_SECRET?

Nevo David•3mo ago

Yes it's not what you used?

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

yes and left X_CLIENT="" X_SECRET="" blank Mind you it is running behind this nginx config:

@Nevo David I think the docs need to be updated, it still references Twitter v1 API

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

And says that the consumer keys not the OAuth 2.0 Client ID and Client Secret have to be there

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

@Nevo David perhaps twitter-api-v2 needs to be updated to 1.18: https://github.com/PLhery/node-twitter-api-v2/pull/532

Nevo David•3mo ago

doubtfully, it's working on https://platform.postiz.com What is the error that you get?

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

I get Could not connect to the platform https://postiz.example.com/api/integrations/social/x returns: {"err":true}

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

my config file

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

values are set with: OAuth 2.0 Client ID and Client Secret from

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

there are also no other logs printed in: docker logs postiz --follow

Nevo David•3mo ago

Did you manage to connect other platforms? Problem might not be with X Do you have access to the code? You can console log the error

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

Code in the container or clone the repo?

Nevo David•3mo ago

I mean any, it's just this line. You can console.log(err)

Nevo David•3mo ago

see what is the problem

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

interesting, so it works when I run it locally using npm run dev but not in the docker container

Nevo David•3mo ago

Need to console log the err probably failing on something else my suspicions is the uploading

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

yeah just can't figure out how to run the console.log(err); in the docker container. Can't find postiz-app/apps/backend/src/api/routes/integrations.controller.ts

Nevo David•3mo ago

The problem is with your uploading, do you use local or cloudflare?

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

local

Nevo David•3mo ago

ok, are you sure it's creating the volume? Wait, the error is after the redirect or before?

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

yep:

[root@docker]/var/lib/docker/volumes# ls | grep postiz   
socials_postiz-config
socials_postiz-redis-data
socials_postiz-uploads

[root@docker]/var/lib/docker/volumes# ls | grep postiz   
socials_postiz-config
socials_postiz-redis-data
socials_postiz-uploads

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

before. clicking on facebook page redirects to facebook X fails to even redirect and is actually the only one that fails to redirect it also doesn't redirect if I leave X_API and XSECRET empty whereas the other ones redirect while they're empty Here's the log on the dev version when the X env variables are empty:

however I have storage set to local Added random cloudflare ids and it didnt make a difference any ideas? can you upload the dockerfile used to build it? that way I can add logging and build the container locally, see if the issue still occurs @Nevo David or does it use the dockerfile.dev one?

Nevo David•3mo ago

I am not sure @xcons created the docker file we will need to wait for his answer

nithur•3mo ago

I am having the same issues right now clicking on X doesn't redirect to the X auth page instead says Could not connect to the platform

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

@Nevo David should I open an issue on github?

nithur•3mo ago

hey @Auxaldeus, adding my domain to x redirect url instead of localhost worked for me

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

hmm really? wow you're right maybe that should be made clear in the docs? @Nevo David anyway to have multiple X accounts under a single self hosted server?

nithur•3mo ago

honestly it surprised me to read they have advised to add localhost redirect url but I thought I am skill issuing so gave it a try

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

yeah I thought so too, for some reason I thought it would interact with docker backend as I gave it the benefit of the doubt glad it works now tho thanks

nithur•3mo ago

I think we should be able to connect to multiple accounts since we have created oauth flow But I am also getting an error when I try to add another account

Auxaldeus•3mo ago

I stand corrected

Nevo David•3mo ago

Can you elaborate on it? In what stage you got it

nithur•3mo ago

Hey I was able to connect my first X account (from which the developer account was created) When I switch account and connect from Postiz It shows the above error

Nevo David•3mo ago

Mmmm... let me see one moment Let me put all the details from my account
