2️⃣0️⃣1️⃣9️⃣ was a big year for @TwitterDev 🚀
We released Twitter Developer Labs - a new program that enables our developer community to test new features + endpoints, and share feedback before we launch the next generation of the Twitter API. 🧵

Since Labs went live in March, we’ve launched 🤚 new releases for developers to test:

🆕 Tweets and users endpoints: Use these endpoints to quickly lookup Tweets and people on Twitter by ID.

🆕 Metrics endpoint: Understand the impact of your owned/authorized Tweets with impressions and engagement metrics via a single endpoint.

🆕 Filtered stream endpoints: Narrow down the full stream of Twitter data to receive only the Tweets you care about.

🆕 Sampled stream endpoint: Stream a sample of new Tweets as they are published, across 1% of all public Tweets in real-time.

🆕 Tweet annotations: Quickly find Tweets you care about and analyze them for insights thanks to the addition of rich contextual annotations in the Tweet payload.

🔜 We’re also adding more features + endpoints, and announced that we are working on a new endpoint to enable developers to help people hide replies to their Tweets.

These launches would not be possible without the feedback you provided along the way, so THANK YOU to everyone who has contributed your time and ideas. Have more feedback? Let us know ⬇️ twitterdevfeedback.uservoice.com/forums/921790-…

We believe the best future version of our API will come from building it with YOU. Here’s to another great year with everyone who builds on the Twitter platform. We can’t wait to continue working with you in the new year.
