Does list of scoped_timeline contain all promoted_tweet

[dudoan1234]

Firstly, I do request GET accounts/:account_id/promoted_tweets/:promoted_tweet_id. (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/ads/campaign-management/api-reference/promoted-tweets)
In the response I see the feild “tweet_id”.

Second, I do request GET accounts/:account_id/scoped_timeline. (https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/ads/creatives/api-reference/tweets)
I get 2 requests by scoped_to = “followers” and scoped_to = “none” and merge them to get list of scoped_timeline.
The response contains “id_str” and “text”.

I try to compare and discover that the field “tweet_id” in promoted_tweets list is the field “id_str” of scoped_timeline.

So, I will map 2 lists to get value of text.
But, I want to ask you a question that:
Does list of scoped_timeline contain all promoted_tweet?

@dudoan1234: I’m not sure I fully understand the question, but let me try.

Does list of scoped_timeline contain all promoted_tweet?

First, let’s make sure we’re on the same page in terms of terminology. In the Ads API, a “promoted_tweet” is an entity in the ads hierarchy. Specifically, it’s the association between a Tweet—this is what you see in the timeline, for example—and a line item. This is what allows a Tweet to be promoted and why the POST accounts/:account_id/promoted_tweets endpoint has line_item_id and tweet_ids (you can associate up to 50 Tweets in a single create request) as required parameters. So, “promoted_tweets” are Tweets that have been promoted.

Finally, to answer the question, because you don’t have to promoted every Tweet you create, the results from the GET accounts/:account_id/scoped_timeline and GET accounts/:account_id/promoted_tweets are not guaranteed to match. In fact, they will almost certainly not match.

Again:

Does list of scoped_timeline contain all promoted_tweet?

Now, if the question is whether the scoped timeline contains all of a user’s Tweets, the answer is that it depends. Like with the standard API endpoints, there is a maximum number of Tweets that can be retrieved.

Let me know if this helps answer your question.

Thanks!
