Media type unrecognized on Twitter X

[kelson]

I downloaded a media from Instagram (via HTTP module) and am trying to post on Twitter X, however am getting the error The operation failed with an error. [400] media type unrecognized.

What’s wrong with the file as it’s an mp4 and comes from another social media?

Looking closer to developer tools, I see that’s sending json, I didn’t understand that.

So How to correctly upload a file to Twitter X? If it’s not possible, how to skip the error and continue the cycle? I clicked to Ignore the TypeError but it doesn’t run again. I’m stuck on that, please help me.

This is actually a common error that hasn’t been properly solved yet, due to the lack of information about the error message.

Perhaps you can take a look at the official documentation for the formats that they allow:

• POST media/upload | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform
• Media Best Practices | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform
• Uploading Media | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform

I’ve already checked the format and that’s ok. No reason for this error.
