Bad documentation when using trim_user and include_rts?

[aTo]

Hi,

When i try to use trim_user parameter in conjunction with include_rts, my retweets don’t contain a full user object like describe in the documentation

In the documentation it is written in the description of the field “include_rts”:

When set to false , the timeline will strip any native retweets (though they will still count toward both the maximal length of the timeline and the slice selected by the count parameter). Note: If you’re using the trim_user parameter in conjunction with include_rts, the retweets will still contain a full user object.

It’s normal ? Or a bug ? Or i miss something ?

Hi @aTo - I’m not able to reproduce this, can you confirm the full parameter list you’re using?

[aTo]

Hello @happycamper

I’m using this url : https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=aToTest1&tweet_mode=extended&trim_user=true&include_rts=true

I also noticed another problem with the quoted tweet. The field “favorited” in “quoted_status” is always false. Even if the original tweet is liked.
Only “bug” when using quoted tweet, it’s work fine with retweeted_status

how to reproduce (i use 2 account):

• Account1 -> like random tweet
• Account2 -> quote the random tweet (
• Account1 -> Get user_timeline (account2) on user behalf (Account1)

This is the response using the first url, if you take a look you can see the 2 problems.

• User object inside “retweeted_status” and “quoted_status” is not a full user object only trim values.
• The field “favorited” is false inside “quoted_status” even if the initial tweet is liked (liked before quote)
