With today’s introduction of the API, v2 Twitter makes it easier for companies, researchers, and third-party developers to build on its website. The organization revealed the new API last month but it opted to delay the launch because the news came the day after it was struck by one of the most damaging hacks in the history of social media. Notably, in its long and fractious partnership with the developer ecosystem of the web, Twitter introduces the API v2 not only as a means to introduce new apps quickly but also as more of a reboot.
The API v2 is the first full restoration of Twitter’s API since 2012 when famously the company began to restrict how third-party developers could work on their software. Until that, outside developers may reproduce and configure the Twitter interface more or less to their users. Yet when Twitter concentrated increasingly on the advertisement business, it concluded that its customer base did not want to be divided. It started gradually filtering out programmers from third parties, banning them from new functionality such as polling and community DMs, and shepherding consumers to the company’s own devices. They destroyed businesses, and developers were not satisfied.
Currently, however, some of those bridges are being restored via Twitter. The API v2 offers third-party users with exposure to functionality that is far removed from their consumers, including “conversation threading, tweet poll data, pinned profile messages, spam filtering, and a more efficient stream filtering and search query language.” There’s also exposure to a message stream in real-time, rather than requiring other parties to wait on fresh messages.
The big one is that Twitter reorganizes its access to the API across three stages. Today only the simple, free level is releasing, and it has limitations on how many API calls developers can make (aka how much their apps can ping for data on Twitter). The next entry point, which Twitter terms “elevated,” does not have the same limitations, but will cost users, and Twitter is not only announcing pricing yet. However, the company does state that 80 percent of developers on its site are required to have their needs fulfilled by the simple rate.

Yet the new API is for more than just Twitter clients from third parties. Connection to Twitter data relies on a wide variety of companies and providers like consulting firms such as Spiketrap and Social Market Analysis, single-use bots such as the House of Lords Hansard bot, and Emoji Mashup bot, and power-user applications such as TweetDelete, Block Party, and Tokimeki Unfollow. Facebook also offers an extremely rich stream of data for researchers researching social movements on a wide scale.
As Alyssa Reese of Twitter put it in a blog post about the changes: “You know, when they think about our documents, we want developers to get moon-eyed. They are almost as pleasant as getting a handwritten letter in the mail to have error messages which are so helpful. Our goal is to be an organization that is cited by other developer platforms as they pursue inspiration (and we know we have a way to go).
This will also help developers unify access to the API. Twitter’s API has previously been broken into three platforms: regular (free), premium (self-serve paid), and company (custom paid).
