Webhooks

Webhooks

A webhook is a http callback. You send to Twitter the url of an http server and Twitter will use that url to execute requests that will represent different events.

It means that you no longer need multiple streams to handle multiple users but just a single server that Twitter can communicate with to send you live updates.

Please read the following tutorial to create a HttpServer ready to handle webhooks.

Before you start

You need to request access to a premium Twitter account.

=> You can register to get such an account on : https://developer.twitter.com/en/apply

After you have been approved you will be able to go to Dev Environments.

There you will be able to create a free Account Activity API Sandbox environment.

Webhooks methods

You can find all the endpoints available in the Tweetinvi.Webhooks static class.
