We’re using the streaming API to track tweets and retweets which has worked beautifully. Thanks, Twitter.

Now, we want to track Hearts/Likes/Favorites as well. At issue is the fact that I haven’t found a way to track the events using the stream. Our app tracks tweet/retweets at the time of their occurrence but we want to know when one of these entities gets a heart/fav? Is there a like/heart event from the stream that I haven’t understood?

Thanks in advance,

Scott Kallen

Yes, but only for the authenticating user with userstreams not for arbitrary users: Consuming streaming data | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform

You’ll get a favorite event every time someone “likes” your tweets.
