Django REST Framework: Response is not defined error

Question

I am trying to connect to Twitter API (tweepy) but it does not seem to work

my views.py


class TwitterAPI(APIView):
    def get(self, request):
        consumer_key = 'XXX'
        consumer_secret = 'XXX'
        access_token = 'XXX'
        access_token_secret = 'XXX'

        auth = tw.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
        auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
        tw.API(auth, wait_on_rate_limit=True)
        
        return Response('OK')

urls.py

urlpatterns = [
    path(
        "auth/twitter/redirect/",
         views.TwitterAPI.as_view(),
    )
]

When I try tto access the url it throws an error Exception Type: NameError Exception Value: name 'Response' is not defined

When I tried to change the class, not tu use get, it also throws an error like GET is not allowed

Sorry I really can't get how to connect to the twitter api in rest framwork

The error occurs because Response is not defined. Fix the error by import Response first. Define the snippet below at the top of your class TwitterAPI

from rest_framework.response import Response
