We have been busy with some updates to the Twitter API so you can continue to build and innovate with us. We’re excited to announce an extension of the current free Twitter API access through February 13. Here’s what we’re shipping then 🧵

Starting February 9, we will no longer support free access to the Twitter API, both v2 and v1.1. A paid basic tier will be available instead 🧵

Twitter is enforcing its long-standing API rules. That may result in some apps not working.

We have launched six foundational Twitter API v2 endpoints for creating Direct Messages conversations and retrieving conversation events. For the first time, these endpoints support group Direct Message conversations, only available on v2. Get started: spr.ly/6014MUfUO

Today, we are announcing the first Twitter API v2 Direct Messages endpoints. Learn more: spr.ly/6013MUfU3

🙌 Thanks to our developer community, we learned of a small bug for edited Tweet metadata on the Twitter API v2. We’ve updated edits_remaining to return an integer, as intended and indicated in our docs/Open API spec. The Twitter API v1.1 returns an integer and is unchanged.

Today, we made edited Tweet metadata available on the Twitter API v2. twitter.com/TwitterDev/sta…

Today, we’re deprecating Twitter Developer Labs and all of the remaining Labs endpoints, which will retire on October 31, 2022: - The Labs Tweets and Users endpoints - The COVID-19 stream Learn more: developer.twitter.com/en/blog/produc…

Today, 10 new v2 filtering operators are now available to all developers building with the filtered stream endpoints, and another 10 are now more widely available. #TwitterAPI #v2 twitter.com/TwitterDev/sta…

Today, we’re making updates to the streaming endpoints in the Twitter API v2 to reduce the latency by 50%. twitter.com/TwitterDev/sta…

Today we are launching the reverse-chronological home timeline on the Twitter API v2. twitter.com/TwitterDev/sta…

Deprecating these legacy features enables us to best serve developers on the Twitter API v2. We regain energy to go faster on new features. We’re committed to making migration to v2 equivalents easy and building more new value on v2. See the forum post for resources 👆

Starting today, new client applications will not be able to access v1.1 statuses/sample nor statuses/filter. Client apps created before today will retain access to both endpoints until they are retired. We are not deprecating v1.1 statuses/filter today, only compliance messages.

The v2 sampled stream, filtered stream, and batch compliance endpoints are available to all developers as replacements for this v1.1 functionality.

Today, we’re deprecating two features of the legacy v1.1 streaming endpoints, which we will retire on Oct 29, 2022: • The v1.1 statuses/sample endpoint • Compliance messages on the v1.1 statuses/filter endpoint Learn more: twittercommunity.com/t/deprecation-…

Today, we launched the new Quote Tweets lookup endpoint on the Twitter API v2, which allows you to retrieve the Quote Tweets of a specified Tweet. #TwitterAPI #v2 twitter.com/TwitterDev/sta…
