Configure Twitter API App

API stands for Application Programming Interface. This software provides “middleman services” between two applications that want to communicate with each other. Any requests you make go to the server first and the response given comes through the same route.

According to the company’s Q3 2020 report, 187 million people use the platform daily and 330 million use it at least once a month.

What is the Twitter API?

The Twitter API lets you read and write Twitter data. Thus, you can use it to compose tweets, read profiles, and access your followers’ data and a high volume of tweets on particular subjects in specific locations.

The Twitter API is a set of programmatic endpoints that can be used to learn from and engage with the conversation on Twitter. 

This API allows you to find and retrieve, engage with, or create a variety of different resources including the following:

• Tweets
• Users
• Direct Messages
• Lists
• Trends
• Media
• Places 

We recently released Twitter API v2: Early Access with new versions of several endpoints. With v2, you can listen to and analyze the public conversation with the search Tweets, Tweet and user lookup, and timelines endpoints, just to name a few. You can also manage your following relationships, and hide replies to Tweets that you’ve posted.

You can access the v2 endpoint using either the Standard or Academic Research product tracks, which offer tailored support, access levels, and pricing to better serve different groups of developers.

• Standard – The default product track for most developers, including those building something for fun, for a good cause, to learn, or to teach.
• Academic Research – This product track enables qualified academic researchers will receive highly Elevated access to endpoints that can be used to study the conversation on Twitter.

The Twitter standard v1.1, premium v1.1, and enterprise APIs are still available, including endpoints that can be used to listen to, analyze, publish to, and engage with Twitter.
