Path parameters

NameTypeDescription
id
 Required 		stringThe user ID whose pinned Lists you would like to retrieve. The user’s ID must correspond to the user ID of the authenticating user, meaning that you must pass the Access Tokens associated with the user ID when authenticating your request.


Query parameters

NameTypeDescription
expansions
 Optional 		enum (owner_id)Expansions enable you to request additional data objects that relate to the originally returned List. The ID that represents the expanded data object will be included directly in the List 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 user object. At this time, the only expansion available to endpoints that primarily return List objects is expansions=owner_id. You will find the expanded user data object living in the includes response object.
list.fields
 Optional 		enum (created_at, follower_count, member_count, private, description, owner_id)This fields parameter enables you to select which specific List fields will deliver with each returned List objects. Specify the desired fields in a comma-separated list without spaces between commas and fields. These specified List fields will display directly in the List data objects.
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. The user fields will only be returned if you have included expansions=owner_id query parameter in your request. You will find this ID and all additional user fields in the included data object.
