Today, we are launching the mutes lookup endpoints to the Twitter API v2… With the manage mutes launch earlier this summer, this release completes the mutes endpoints on the Twitter API v2, allowing developers to build safer, more comfortable experiences for people on Twitter.
Mutes lookup
Muting users is a core safety feature on Twitter. Using mutes lookup, you can see who you, or an authenticated user, has muted. On its own, this can be useful for determining how you interact with a given account. It can also be used in combination with the manage mutes endpoints, to build solutions that give people more control over the content they see on Twitter.
There is one endpoint available within mutes lookup:
- Accounts muted by an authenticated user - GET /2/users/:id/muting
Since you are making requests for private information with mutes lookup, you must authenticate to this endpoint with OAuth 1.0a User Context and use the Access Tokens associated with a user that has authorized your App, which can be generated using the 3-legged OAuth flow.
This endpoint has a rate limit of 15 requests per 15 minutes per user.
Getting started
This endpoint is available to all developers building with the Twitter API v2. Be sure to check out our documentation for more information on how to get started.
We’re continuing to add new features and functionality to Twitter API v2. Be sure to keep an eye on our public roadmap for the latest. As always, we’d love to hear what you think. Please reach out with any questions or feedback on what you’d like to see in the future.
