Hello all, have a self hosted server on DigitalOcean using the “30 minutes” install via docker.

Run well, but I’ve some problems with the onebox embed on twitter post.

I’ve used the config manual here

> [@Configuring X login and rich embeds for Discourse](https://meta.discourse.org/t/configuring-twitter-login-and-rich-embeds-for-discourse/13395):
>
> bookmark This guide explains how to set up Twitter login and rich embeds for your Discourse forum. person_raising_hand Required user level: Administrator warning In order for rich embeds to work properly, a Basic plan or higher for X Dev is mandatory. Rich embeds will not work with the Free X Dev plan. X Configuration Go to the [Developer Portal](https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/projects-and-apps) on X. Choose between a Free, Basic, or Pro X Dev plan and complete the developer agreement and policy requirements. After completing …

I set my dev keys (consumer and secret consumer) and relaunch the app.

But Onebox give me a 404 error retrieving the twitter post?

Testing the wrench key and rebuild HTML thing, same problem.

If I unset the keys, the post is ok but the @ is empty and the size of picture very very small

So I’ve some questions and need hints…

1. I’m in France, using OVH for DNS, may be a problem for twitter post recovery in Europe? (a RGPD thing…). Do I need a special config?
2. I misuse the Twitter dev config? I’ve set OAuthV1 (seem to be used for login only thing but…)
3. a direct link give me an _unable to generate a preview for this web page_, is it a “normal” thing?

I’m a little lost for now. Thanks you for any help!

I’ve found it !

You need to escalate your developer Twitter account from Essential to Elevated (free).

And then it’s work like a charm.
