Hi Is there a possibility to get the date from when a Tweet got faved through the REST API? Because if I’m correct the “created_at”: “Tue Sep 04 15:55:52 +0000 2012” in the response is for the tweet itself, not for the fav right?

Thanks, optikfluffel

No, it’s not returned as a field of the API. You can record the approximate time it happened by monitoring it in real time using the User Streams API though.

That’s some kind of a problem when it has to happen server side with more than 1000 users.
