Get current user's info from Twitter API

I am building a Twitter app (with oAuth) and I cannot find any info on how I can get the current user's info.

By current user, I mean the user which granted my app permissions and for whom the app is making the requests to the API.

Any suggestions?

Solution 1:

It was actually "account/verify_credentials" as seen here:

https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/accounts-and-users/manage-account-settings/api-reference/get-account-verify_credentials.html

Solution 2:

Link to the documentation for API v. 1.1: https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/account/verify_credentials

Solution 3:

Using oAuth you are able to make calls to get user info from your TwitterOAuth object.

e.g if

$oauth = new TwitterOAuth([keys here]);

$credentials = $oauth->get('account/verify_credentials');

echo "Connected as @" . $credentials->screen_name ."\n";
