Rate Limit on lists/statuses

[gaguera]

My APP fetches Twitter’s API periodically to get the tweet list present on a list that I created before. It fetches once every 20 seconds per user, but these users are not authenticated. Thus, all my requests is APP based, using my APP_KEY limit (app auth).

These are the limits:

|Requires authentication?|Yes|
|Rate limited?|Yes|
|Requests / 15-min window (user auth)|900|
|Requests / 15-min window (app auth)|900|

I’m caching these responses, to respect this limit. But as well my app growths, it’ll become impossible to respect.

I searched a lot on forum, but I didn’t find an explicit answer that helps me.

Is there some way to increse these limits? I want to increase only the lists/statuses limit.

Thank you!

No, there’s no way to increase this limit on the lists/statuses endpoint. The only way would be to use user auth to have each authenticated user have their own set of calls for their own lists (assuming that this is you use case).
