Question, I haven't worked with API's too much but I'm building an app and I was curious to know if this idea would be possible. Would it be possible for a user to sign up on my site and pull that user's tweet's as a way to display the tweet on my website? Thanks in Advance.

So I am creating a small telegram-twitter bot for friends and me. So far everything works, I get the tweets and forward them to the telegram chat. All cool. But then I figured that it would be cool to display if Twitter deemed the Tweet to be incorrect or harmful. Does anybody know how retrieve or access this information without scraping the webpage?
I checked the API and even the labs api, but couldn't find anything.
Cheers
There is nothing in the Twitter API that provides this information.
Hi i have been searching for a while for this i want to implement a feature where if a user login my app through twitter she sees who she follows on twitter who already joined my app and gives her the opportunity to follow them on my app like Meerkat does for example.Im using rails for my backend if that healps.
Any help pointing me to right direction is much appreciated.
(PS: Linkedin does it with email but Im interested with only twitter).
Well after some more researching i found out that meerkat uses https://get.fabric.io/ to the best of my knowledge. im going to try it.
I am working on a project now where I am trying to display twitter widgets. I have the twitter names for the users, and would like to display their tweets. I am able to display it with my own css etc., but not as a twitter widget.
Is it at all possible to make an actual twitter widget for an arbitrary user, or do we need to manually make a new widget in twitter for every user we want? I have been pulling my hair for hours or even days now, but have not been able to figure this out.
I am using Rails and the twitter gem.
If I had #twitterapi as a twitter name in my database I would like to be able to display a widget that looks like this, without having to manually make one in my twitter account.
Is this possible? Should I go with faking the styling and make it from the twitter data I have? Anyone have any good tips?
Check out the Twitter's gem API here: http://sferik.github.io/twitter/
In short, it is possible. You would just have to include Twitter in your app and then call:
Twitter.user_timeline("username")
Just beware that Twitter limits the amount of anonymous requests. So, it would be better if you set up your Twitter dev account and get your credentials.

It's outdated but you can use it as a reference.
Recently under some youtube videos there have been a Twitter feed, showing all tweets relevant to the video and what people are saying about it.
I was wondering how I could implement it on my website, except showing tweets relevant to my company's name.
Thanks in advance :D
Well this is a very general question so I'm providing you with a general answer. Use the Twitter API to pull data that is marked with #YourCompanyName or #YourCompany.

Pretty straight forward.
I've been googling before asking but all in vain unfortunately. Is the only possibility to have all facebook users of my app is maintaining my own database or maybe there's a simpler way provided by any Facebook API? Can anyone help me out? How do i do that?
Facebook doesn't provide a way to retrieve users who have your application installed. And you should store that information on your end to be able to track this.
You can only retrieve count of users who use your application from Application Insights (see answer to similar question: How do I get all the users that have authorized my Facebook app?)
