Retrieve community tweets timeline

Returns array of tweets from the community timeline. Typically Twitter returns ~20 results per page. You can request additional results by sending another request to the same endpoint using cursor parameter. If the community has a pinned post - this post will be returned on all subsequent requests made with the cursor.

This endpoint doesn't support any filters.

Common Issues and Best Practices

  • In languages where the community_id value exceeds the default Integer type limit (e.g., Node.js), store community_id as a string. Use the id_str property returned by the API for these values

  • Always URL-encode the cursor value when passing it back to the API for subsequent requests

Response codes

  • HTTP 200 OK - succeeded

  • HTTP 402 Payment Required - not enough credits to perform this request

  • HTTP 404 Not Found - requested comminity does not exist

  • HTTP 422 Unprocessable Content - validation failed (e.g. one of the required parameters was not provided)

  • HTTP 500 Internal Server Error - other error, typically means that SocialData API failed to obtain the requested information and you should try again later

Rate limits

By default each user has a limit of 120 requests per minute shared across all endpoints. Please reach out to support@socialdata.tools if you need to raise your rate limit.

Example request
