Hi there,
I am running the following code I found on the internet to grab a load of Tweets with a particular hashtag:
<cfset consumerKey = "MY_CONSUMER_KEY">
<cfset consumerSecret = "MY_CONSUMER_SECRET">
<cfset bearerToken = ToBase64(consumerKey & ":" & consumerSecret)>
<cfset authorization = "Basic " & bearerToken>
<cfhttp url="https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token" method="post" charset="utf-8">
<cfhttpparam type="header" name="Authorization" value="#authorization#">
<cfhttpparam type="header" name="Content-Type" value="application/x-www-form-urlencoded;charset=UTF-8">
<cfhttpparam type="body" value="grant_type=client_credentials">
</cfhttp>
<cfset bearerTokenResponse = DeserializeJSON(cfhttp.fileContent)>
<cfset authorization2 = "Bearer " & bearerTokenResponse.access_token>
<cfhttp url="https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json" method="get" charset="utf-8">
<cfhttpparam type="header" name="Authorization" value="#authorization2#">
<cfhttpparam type="url" name="q" value="%23ColdFusion">
</cfhttp>
Obviously I have put in my own keys in the consumerkey & consumersecret variables.

I have searched endlessly for weeks in the way that I can use this to display in a legible way. So for instance, suppose I wanted to output on the page, the actual tweet(s), the handle of who posted the tweet and the date - how!!! It is driving me mad as I am sure I did something like this before but can't remember how!
Many thanks in advance.
