Twitter List Tweets Lookup

Blocks for retrieving tweets from Twitter/X lists.

Twitter Get List Tweets

What it is

This block retrieves tweets from a specified Twitter list.

How it works

This block queries the Twitter API v2 to retrieve tweets posted by members of a specific Twitter List. Results include all tweets from list members in reverse chronological order, providing a curated timeline based on the list's membership.

The block uses Tweepy with OAuth 2.0 authentication and supports extensive expansions to include additional data like media, author profiles, and referenced tweets. Pagination allows retrieving large volumes of list content in batches of up to 100 tweets.
