the function that i use is the " Subscribe to account activity".
after i success register the webhook and subscribe those events, i start to run some test unit, and found there’s only one type of event I can’t receive from webhook。
The situation of this event is: when @ my twitter is commented and forwarded by a user, I can’t receive the event. For example, user A’s tweeted @ me, and user B forwarded it directly,i can receive this event. But when user B comments and forwards it, I can’t receive the event.
Have developers ever encountered such problems? Help me please.
Hello. Are you describing a quote Tweet, or something else? I am not quite understanding your scenario!

wait a min, i send you an image
in the image, i am the cctip_io，one user send a tweet which include content “@cctip_io 123”，when user “XI” comment “456” and retweet it. my webhook can’t receive this event.
what’s more,in the image,if user “XI” retweet it directly, i can receive this event.
So you’re saying that you’re not seeing a reply / mention in the webhook when this occurs? I am just trying to narrow down on the scenario to understand the situation here. Do you receive a webhook event when any other account replies to the same account?

Note that it’s 4am in my time zone so I’ll have to pick this conversation up another time.

As I described，if comment and retweet operate together, i can’t receive the event from webhook. The picture above is an example. You can see it.
oh，thanks a lot，I’ll be waiting for you.
As far as i know - this isn’t an event that you can get because while you’re mentioned, the tweet is not authored by you. You can’t get events of someone else’s tweet getting quote tweeted when your account is only mentioned, but you can get that one event when your account is mentioned. The list of events you linked here is everything you can get: Account Activity API | Twitter API | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform
Also, if this is your test bot, https://twitter.com/reaID0naIdTrnmp impersonating political figures is a bad idea for a dev account, you’re better off making something more generic and making it clear in the name / description that this is a test / bot account.

i have test some twitter account, they can receive such kind of event
Notifications on the website and the Account Activity API aren’t exactly the same thing - you may or may not get extra / missing notifications on the web / mobile depending on a lot of things - preferences, network, recommendations, previous interactions, etc.

the network is good，i have ran so many test，all lost this event.
Quote Tweets should be sent via the webhook, however:
- is this “missed event” only for specific accounts? Are those account public?
- are you looking for quoted Tweets of the subscribed account, or the quoter?

not the specific accounts，my test accounts are public.
i am looking for the quoted Tweet event, because it’s content contains @me,in the image above, is the content “@cctip_io 123”

This event is not available it seems. Only the original @mention is. You will not get events for quotes of other people’s tweets that mention you
