Hello R Studio Users
I am using R Studio and trying to connect to the twitter API.
I am using a credential object and passing it along with a cacert.pem file for a handshake with the Twitter API using Twitter Keys.
However I keep getting a SSL routines error message and am unable to proceed further.
I have downloaded the OpenSSL package and loaded the library in my runtime environment, I have also downloaded RCurl and baseenc64 packages along with twitteR package.
However I keep getting this TLS v1/SSL routine error.
This is the code I am using>
credential<-OAuthFactory$new(consumerKey="xxxxx",
consumerSecret="xxxxx",
requestURL="xxhttps://api.twitter.com/oauth/request_token",
accessURL="xxhttps://api.twitter.com/oauth/access_token",
authURL="xxhttps://api.twitter.com/oauth/authorize")
credential$handshake()
registerTwitterOAuth(credential)
Error:
credential$handshake(cainfo="cacert.pem")
Error in function (type, msg, asError = TRUE) :
error:1407742E:SSL routines:SSL23_GET_SERVER_HELLO:tlsv1 alert protocol version
I am using a Windows 10 machine with no proxy server connection to Internet.
I have checked internet options to enable TLS 1.0, 1.1, 1.2.
Here is my session info.

Please let me know if you can resolve this as I am unable to proceed.
I have also tried on different machines but the same TLS / SSL error.
Thank you
