Twitter API Changing. Your Sites Might Break.

EllisLab reminded us last week that tomorrow, March 5th, the Twitter API version 1 is being retired and they will start testing blackouts to let people know that any code or add-on using the v1 API will break. This includes the first part Twitter Timeline add-on that a lot of us use.

From Twitter last month:

When API v1 is finally retired, all authenticated and unauthenticated requests to API v1 will return a HTTP 410 Gone status. Older widgets will receive the same response. This status code signifies that all API v1-era resources are gone and not coming back.

Earlier today John Henry Donovan posted a link on Twitter to a good list of ExpressionEngine add-ons using the v1 API and those that use the v1.1 API. Make sure you’re using add-ons that are in the second list.
