Over the next few weeks, UserStreams and SiteStreams of the Streaming APIs will start to include new event messages when a Tweet is quoted. The new messages will be similar to the events HERE.
A quoted Tweet event will come through UserStream with the following objects
“created_at”: timestamp of the quote Tweet event,
“event”: “quoted_tweet”,
“source”: user who created the quote Tweet,
“target”: user of the original Tweet that was quoted,
“target_object”: The newly created quote Tweet containing the original tweet nested
An example quote Tweet event is shown below
