Path parameters

NameTypeDescription
id
 Required 
stringThe ID of the List whose members you would like to retrieve.


Query parameters

NameTypeDescription
expansions
 Optional 
enum (pinned_tweet_id)Expansions enable you to request additional data objects that relate to the originally returned users. The ID that represents the expanded data object will be included directly in the user data object, but the expanded object metadata will be returned within the includes response object, and will also include the ID so that you can match this data object to the original Tweet object. At this time, the only expansion available to endpoints that primarily return user objects is expansions=pinned_tweet_id. You will find the expanded Tweet data object living in the includes response object.
max_results
 Optional 
integerThe maximum number of results to be returned per page. This can be a number between 1 and 100. By default, each page will return 100 results.
pagination_token
 Optional 
stringUsed to request the next page of results if all results weren't returned with the latest request, or to go back to the previous page of results. To return the next page, pass the next_token returned in your previous response. To go back one page, pass the previous_token returned in your previous response.
tweet.fields
 Optional 
enum (attachments, author_id, context_annotations, conversation_id, created_at, edit_controls, entities, geo, id, in_reply_to_user_id, lang, non_public_metrics, public_metrics, organic_metrics, promoted_metrics, possibly_sensitive, referenced_tweets, reply_settings, source, text, withheld)This fields parameter enables you to select which specific Tweet fields will deliver in each returned pinned Tweet. Specify the desired fields in a comma-separated list without spaces between commas and fields. The Tweet fields will only return if the user has a pinned Tweet and if you've also included the expansions=pinned_tweet_id query parameter in your request. While the referenced Tweet ID will be located in the original Tweet object, you will find this ID and all additional Tweet fields in the includes data object.
user.fields
 Optional 
enum (created_at, description, entities, id, location, most_recent_tweet_id, name, pinned_tweet_id, profile_image_url, protected, public_metrics, url, username, verified, withheld)This fields parameter enables you to select which specific user fields will deliver with the users object. Specify the desired fields in a comma-separated list without spaces between commas and fields. These specified user fields will display directly in the user data objects.
