Statuses/filter follow stopped sending tweets

[me_bx]

Hello,
I am monitoring tweets sent by a set of people using the ‘filter’ streaming API, with a set of user Ids passed via the ‘follow’ parameter.

Everything worked find for more than a Month, but then last week twitter stopped sending any tweets.
There is no error, and the streaming connection seems to be kept alive. The API is just silent.

If for testing I replace the ‘follow’ parameter by a keyword ‘track’, tweets are returned.

Any idea about what may be wrong? Is this related to the user streams API deprecation?

Hi @me_bx,

I’m unaware of any issues with the API and this would not be related to the user streams deprecation. If the users toggled their account to protected, the Tweets would no longer be available in the API.

Have you tested with other user IDs via the track parameter?

Yes, I tried with several accounts, nothing is ever returned.

Would you mind sharing your request for us to test internally?
