Twitter APIs Error Python: You currently have access to a subset of Twitter API v2 endpoints and limited v1.1 endpoints (e.g. media post, oauth) only

So, I wrote a code for a Twitter Bot that tweets "YES" on every thursday. However, when i run the code i get the following error:

403 Forbidden 453 - You currently have access to a subset of Twitter API v2 endpoints and limited v1.1 endpoints (e.g. media post, oauth) only. If you need access to this endpoint, you may need a different access level. You can learn more here: https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/product

This is the code that i wrote

import tweepy
import datetime
import time

consumer_key = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
consumer_secret = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
access_token = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'
access_token_secret = 'XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX'

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
api = tweepy.API(auth)

def is_giovedi():
    return datetime.datetime.now().strftime('%A') == 'Thursday'

def post_tweet():
    if is_giovedi():
        tweet = "SI"
    else:
        tweet = "NO"

    api.update_status(status=tweet)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    now = datetime.datetime.now()
    target_time = now.replace(hour=12, minute=0, second=0, microsecond=0)
    
    if now < target_time:
        time_to_wait = (target_time - now).seconds
        print(f"Aspetto {time_to_wait} secondi")
        time.sleep(time_to_wait)

    post_tweet()
    print("Tweet inviato con successo!")

Hope someone can help me

I put the keys that the code asked me from the twitter developer portal, but when i run the code it gives me this error

It seems like you tried to call the Twitter API v1.1, which can only be used for Media Uploads.

For posting a tweet, you should call the Twitter API v2.

Replace: 

auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)
auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)
api = tweepy.API(auth)

with the following code snippet: 

# Authenticate to Twitter
client = tweepy.Client(
    consumer_key=consumer_key,
    consumer_secret=consumer_secret,
    access_token=access_token,
    access_token_secret=access_token_secret
)

And, also replace: 

api.update_status(status=tweet)

with the following code snippet: 

# Post Tweet
client.create_tweet(text=tweet)

For more information on Twitter API v2:

https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api

https://docs.tweepy.org/en/v4.14.0/client.html#

I hope this helps.
