Twitter OAuth request_token stopped working - c#

Out of no where, my twitter API calls, specificly my first step in the 3-legged auth, stopped working. I've compared the timestamps, keys and everything with the OAuth signature generator tool, and they all match (execpt oauth_nonce but thats the point I guess). Here is my code. Any suggestions or small observations would be appreciated.
protected void RequestToken()
{
string oauthcallback = Request.Url.Host + "/TwitterCallback.aspx";
string oauthconsumerkey = "xxx-consumerkey";
string oauthconsumersecret = "xxx-consumerSecret";
string oauthtokensecret = string.Empty;
string oauthtoken = string.Empty;
string oauthsignaturemethod = "HMAC-SHA1";
string oauthversion = "1.0";
string oauthnonce = Convert.ToBase64String(new ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(DateTime.Now.Ticks.ToString()));
TimeSpan timeSpan = DateTime.UtcNow - new DateTime(1970, 1, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, DateTimeKind.Utc);
string oauthtimestamp = Convert.ToInt64(timeSpan.TotalSeconds).ToString();
string url = "https://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token?oauth_callback=" + oauthcallback;
SortedDictionary<string, string> basestringParameters = new SortedDictionary<string, string>();
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_version", oauthversion);
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_consumer_key", oauthconsumerkey);
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_nonce", oauthnonce);
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_signature_method", oauthsignaturemethod);
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_timestamp", oauthtimestamp);
basestringParameters.Add("oauth_callback", Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthcallback));
//Build the signature string
string baseString = String.Empty;
baseString += "POST" + "&";
baseString += Uri.EscapeDataString(url.Split('?')[0]) + "&";
foreach (KeyValuePair<string, string> entry in basestringParameters)
{
baseString += Uri.EscapeDataString(entry.Key + "=" + entry.Value + "&");
}
//Remove the trailing ambersand char last 3 chars - %26
//baseString = baseString.Substring(0, baseString.Length - 3);
//Build the signing key
string signingKey = Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthconsumersecret) +
"&" + Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthtokensecret);
//Sign the request
HMACSHA1 hasher = new HMACSHA1(new ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(signingKey));
string oauthsignature = Convert.ToBase64String(
hasher.ComputeHash(new ASCIIEncoding().GetBytes(baseString)));
//Tell Twitter we don't do the 100 continue thing
ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false;
HttpWebRequest webRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(#url);
string authorizationHeaderParams = String.Empty;
authorizationHeaderParams += "OAuth ";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_nonce=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthnonce) + "\",";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_signature_method=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthsignaturemethod) + "\",";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_timestamp=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthtimestamp) + "\",";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_consumer_key=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthconsumerkey) + "\",";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_signature=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthsignature) + "\",";
authorizationHeaderParams += "oauth_version=" + "\"" +
Uri.EscapeDataString(oauthversion) + "\"";
webRequest.Headers.Add("Authorization", authorizationHeaderParams);
webRequest.Method = "POST";
webRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
//Allow us a reasonable timeout in case Twitter's busy
webRequest.Timeout = 3 * 60 * 1000;
try
{
HttpWebResponse webResponse = webRequest.GetResponse() as HttpWebResponse;
Stream dataStream = webResponse.GetResponseStream();
// Open the stream using a StreamReader for easy access.
StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(dataStream);
// Read the content.
string responseFromServer = reader.ReadToEnd();
var uri = new Uri("https://test.dk?" + responseFromServer);
var token = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uri.Query).Get("oauth_token"); ;
var tokensecret = HttpUtility.ParseQueryString(uri.Query).Get("oauth_token_secret");
Response.Write(responseFromServer);
Response.Redirect("https://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize?force_login=true&oauth_token=" + token);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Response.Write(ex.GetBaseException());
}
}
The error obviously happens when I do the HTTP request webRequest.GetResponse()
It returns a 401 unauthorized

Apperently you have to include the oauth version number in the URL now, or else it will fall back to the oldest version (or maybe the newest, can't remember).
Providing /oath/1.0/ or /1.0/oauth/ or what ever solved my issue as i recall it (it's been a while).

I wanted to get data from an API provided by GravityForm, it completely works in Postman, but I can't get it through my own C# app.
I have tried different solutions provided by friends on Stackoverflow, but unfortunately, none of them work.

Oh, after about a month, I finally reached a solution. For authentication of GravityForm APIs, OAUTH 1.0 is not as stable as you may expect. Instead, you'd better use "BASIC AUTHENTICATION" like this:
USERNAME = consumerKey
Password = consumerSecret
Then you can use following solution:

I'm trying to connect to the Bricklink REST API using OAuth (http://apidev.bricklink.com/redmine/projects/bricklink-api/wiki/Authorization).

I know that consumerKey, consumerSecret, tokenSecret, and tokenValue are correct as I can connect using the bricklink-api (https://www.npmjs.com/package/bricklink-api) using JavaScript.
After studying https://oauth.net/core/1.0/#signing_process again, I finally got it right. Note, the Escape function is not essential I just happened to stumble upon that one while trying to make things work.

For anyone who is looking for way simpler solution. This works with WooCommerce and probably with other services. For WooCommerce token/tokenSecret is null.
var client = new RestClient($"{StoreHttp}/wp-json/wc/v3/products")
{
Authenticator = OAuth1Authenticator.ForProtectedResource(ConsumerKey, ConsumerSecret, token, tokenSecret)
};
var request = new RestRequest(Method.GET);
RestResponse response = client.Execute(request);
Console.WriteLine(response.Content);
Example with: RestSharp version: 108.0.3
Do not need to write code for signature creation. RestSharp does it all for you.
using System;
using RestSharp;
using RestSharp.Authenticators;
using RestSharp.Authenticators.OAuth;
using Newtonsoft.Json;
var client = new RestClient(URL);
var oAuth1 = OAuth1Authenticator.ForAccessToken(
consumerKey: ConsumerKey,
consumerSecret: ConsumerSecret,
token: Token,
tokenSecret: TokenSecret,
OAuthSignatureMethod.HmacSha256);
oAuth1.Realm = Realm; // if Realm has otherwise ignore
client.Authenticator = oAuth1;
var request = new RestRequest(URL, Method.Post);
request.AddHeader("Content-Type", "application/json");
string body = JsonConvert.SerializeObject(bodyObject);
request.AddParameter("application/json", body, ParameterType.RequestBody);

C# Request Token 401 Unauthorized access

I am trying to generate a request_token using the oAuth method as mentioned in the links below:
https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/overview/creating-signatures
https://dev.twitter.com/oauth/reference/post/oauth/request_token
No matter how many times I go through the Twitter API oauth procedure, am failing to make my request work.
I came across this blog with an example on how to go about updating a user timeline.

Java vs C# HTTP request with JSON data

Im trying to convert Java program to C#. This programe sent JSON object to server using a HTTP POST. Java program works fine. return 200. But C# program return 400 (bad request). What can be the cause
Java Code
String base_url = "https://test-url.com";
String username = "test-user";
String password = "test-pass";
String client_id = "test-client";
String client_secret = "test-key";
String loginUrl = base_url + "session/login";
Charset utf8 = Charset.forName("UTF-8");
ContentType jason_content_type = ContentType.create("application/json", utf8);
try {
HttpClient c = HttpClients.custom().setUserAgent(client_id + "/1.0").build();
HttpPost p = new HttpPost(loginUrl);
String json_str = "{" + "\"userId\":\"" + username + "\"," + "\"password\":\"" + password + "\"," + "\"clientId\":\"" + client_id + "\"," + "\"clientSecret\":\"" + client_secret + "\"" + "}";
p.setEntity(new StringEntity(json_str, jason_content_type));
HttpResponse r = c.execute(p);
int status = r.getStatusLine().getStatusCode();
} catch (IOException e) {
System.out.println(e);
}
C# Code
string base_url = "https://test-url.com";
string username = "test-user";
string password = "test-pass";
string client_id = "test-client";
string client_secret = "test-key";
string login_url = base_url + "session/login";
var httpWebRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(login_url);
httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/json";
httpWebRequest.Method = WebRequestMethods.Http.Post;
httpWebRequest.UserAgent = client_id + "/1.0";
httpWebRequest.ProtocolVersion=HttpVersion.Version11;
using (var streamWriter = new StreamWriter(httpWebRequest.GetRequestStream(), Encoding.UTF8))
{
string json_str = "{" + "\"userId\":\"" + username + "\"," + "\"password\":\"" + password + "\"," + "\"clientId\":\"" + client_id + "\"," + "\"clientSecret\":\"" + client_secret + "\"" + "}";
streamWriter.Write(json_str);
streamWriter.Flush();
streamWriter.Close();
var httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpWebRequest.GetResponse();
using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream()))
{
var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd();
}
}
Try out adding in C# :
httpWebRequest.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";

C# - vBulletin new thread

i tried this:
public static void CreateNewThread(string url,string fId, string title, string message, string tag)
{
url += "newthread.php?do=postthread";
HttpWebRequest req = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(url);
//string result = "";
string values = "subject=" + title
+ "&message=" + message
+ "&tag=" + tag
+ "&do=postthread"
+ "&f=" + fId
+ "&s="
+ ""
;
req.Method = "POST";
req.ContentType = "application/x-www-form-urlencoded";
req.ContentLength = values.Length;
ServicePointManager.Expect100Continue = false; // prevents 417 error
using (StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(req.GetRequestStream(), Encoding.UTF8))
{
writer.Write(values);
}
HttpWebResponse c = (HttpWebResponse)req.GetResponse();
}
But this is doesnt work!
Try encoding the subject and message paramaters:
HttpUtility.UrlEncode(
string values = "subject=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(title)
+ "&message=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(message)
+ "&tag=" + HttpUtility.UrlEncode(tag)
+ "&do=postthread"
+ "&f=" + fId
+ "&s="
+ ""
;
