Retrieve tweets and replies made by a specific user
Returns array of tweets from the user's tweets and replies timeline. Typically Twitter returns ~20 results per page. You can request additional search results by sending another request to the same endpoint using cursor parameter.
This endpoint doesn't support any filters and we can't adjust the number of items returned in the response. To have more flexibility - you may also use the Search endpoint with from:USERNAME query to retrieve the user's timeline.
Endpoint
To request only user's tweets timeline:
GET https://api.socialdata.tools/twitter/user/[user_id]/tweets?cursor=...
To request only user's replies timeline (this will also include own tweets):
GET https://api.socialdata.tools/twitter/user/[user_id]/tweets-and-replies?cursor=...
