The context annotation documentation gives some info here on the kinds of entities and domains that Twitter uses for NER context annotation Tweet annotations | Docs | Twitter Developer

But I’m wondering if there is a full (fine-grained) list available anywhere?

Thanks!

Thanks for reaching out @nilknarfamme

Unfortunately, thats the only list that we have available right now. I am passing along your feedback to our product team to consider adding a comprehensive list of entities as well.

I encourage you to submit this feedback here

Are tweet Annotations related to this list? https://twitter.com/i/flow/topics_selector

Yes in many cases.

The way to cross check is to take a Tweet for any ‘Topic’ (referring to the link you shared) and do a Tweet lookup with context_annotations.

For example this Tweet is listed in the Cricket Topic but if you do a Tweet lookup it does not have the cricket entity:

curl --request GET 'https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets/1360523183640612864?tweet.fields=context_annotations' --header 'Authorization: Bearer XXXXX'

Whereas this one does

curl --request GET 'https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets/1361263049248628744?tweet.fields=context_annotations' --header 'Authorization: Bearer XXXXX'
