Please post the output from the execution. 401 indicates that your credentials are incorrect. Can you confirm this?

[yunsanch]

my credential should be correct since I use the same credential in the code below and I have elevated access
#!/usr/bin/env python
#tweepy-bots/bots/followfollowers.py

import tweepy
import logging
from config import create_api
import time

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.INFO)
logger =logging.getLogger()

def follow_followers(api):
    logger.info("Retrieving and following followers")
    for follower in tweepy.Cursor(api.get_followers).items(): #had to changed get followers since followers was not longer useif 
not follower.following:
            logger.info(f"Following {follower.name}")
            follower.follow()

def main():
    api =create_api()
    while True:
        follow_followers(api)
        logger.info("Waiting..")
        time.sleep(60)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    main()

the above code works file

What version of Tweepy are you using?
Are you using a Twitter Developer App created on or after 2022-04-29?

For code block usage, see https://docs.github.com/en/github/writing-on-github/working-with-advanced-formatting/creating-and-highlighting-code-blocks.

hello @Harmon758 i am using 4.10.0, i am uing a twiter developer app created on July, i also have both regular and elevated access anable, see picture below

[Harmon758]

Then this is a duplicate of #1877 / #1878.

New Apps:

will not be able to gain access to v1.1 statuses/sample and v1.1 statuses/filter

https://twittercommunity.com/t/deprecation-announcement-removing-compliance-messages-from-statuses-filter-and-retiring-statuses-sample-from-the-twitter-api-v1-1/170500

You'll have to use Twitter API v2.

[yunsanch]

i still continue to have an error dispise haveing my code set from Stream to StreamingClient i still get the "Stream encounter HTTP error: 403"

[Harmon758]

What's the relevant code?
