Greetings,
I want to automate sending some messages when I receive DM’s on my twitter account… but I don’t quite understand which of the available APIs I can use and the costs associated with them…

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

For monitoring for events in your account there is Overview | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform and you really only need the Sandbox if you have just your account.

For sending tweets, there is only POST statuses/update | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform and for DMs POST direct_messages/events/new (message_create) | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform - you don’t need any of the Premium plans for this - Premium Plans are for authenticating more accounts that you control to your webhook so you can monitor them.

WOW, this is fantastic news Igor, really appreciated.

So what the first tier of the premium accounts refers (up to 25) is up to 25 twitter accounts I can monitor then???
brilliant, thanks a million

Yes, you can add 25 accounts (usually ones you own) for free and get all events for them.
