Solutions

1. Re-authenticate the channel to obtain a fresh access token
2. Check the Twitter API response details/logs for an underlying error (401/403) instead of missing data
3. Confirm the token scope includes users.read / tweet.read
4. Verify the account is not suspended or deleted

Example fix

// before
const user = response.data
if (!user) {
  throw new TwitterPlatformException('Twitter user profile not found')
}
// after
const user = response.data
if (!user) {
  this.logger.warn(`Twitter /users/me returned no data, response.errors=${JSON.stringify(response.errors)}`)
  throw new TwitterPlatformException('Twitter user profile not found')
}

const canFetchProfile = (c: { accessToken?: string | null }) => typeof c.accessToken === 'string' && c.accessToken.length > 0

function hasProfile(u: unknown): u is { id: string; name: string; profileImageUrl?: string } {
  return !!u && typeof u === 'object' && 'id' in u
}

try {
  const info = await twitterService.getUserInfo(token)
} catch (e) {
  if (String(e?.message).includes('user profile not found')) {
    await channelService.requestReauth(channelId)
    return
  }
  throw e
}

When it happens

Trigger: Calling getUserInfo with an expired/revoked access token, a token whose scope lacks users.read, or a Twitter API response missing data due to platform errors or deleted/suspended account.

Common situations: Stale channel credentials after the user revoked the app, partially completed OAuth flow, token obtained for a different Twitter API project with restricted scopes.
