I'm getting a twitter.error.TwitterError: [{'code': 34, 'message': 'Sorry, that page does not exist'}] on python 3.5 using python-twitter==3.5.0. I've been reading through an older issue #587 and that doesn't seem to work properly.

Api.GetDirectMessages uses url = '%s/direct_messages.json' % self.base_url (https://github.com/bear/python-twitter/blob/v3.5/twitter/api.py#L2920), which appears to be the old url.

I changed it to url = '%s/direct_messages/events/list.json' % self.base_url and now run into this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<console>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/var/www/brownpapersession/alpha/brownpapersession/various/tweet.py", line 62, in get_direct_messages
    messages = twitter.GetDirectMessages()
  File "/var/www/brownpapersession/alpha/env/lib/python3.5/site-packages/twitter/api.py", line 2943, in GetDirectMessages
    return [DirectMessage.NewFromJsonDict(x) for x in data]

    json_data = data.copy()

Deleting a message via the same API appears to fail as well:
twitter.DestroyDirectMessage() raises twitter.error.TwitterError: [{'message': 'Sorry, that page does not exist.', 'code': 34}]

That endpoint was deprecated. It’s not your python version. We’ll be working on implementing support for the new endpoints shortly.

The issue is still present. (twitter-python version: 3.5)

The issue is still very present as can be seen by my thread in Feb. 2 that still hasn't done anything.
