Power BI Connector for Twitter

Build 24.0.9060

Followers

Query a list of users following the current Twitter account.

View Specific Information

The authenticated user's followers and a specified user's followers may be viewed from Followers.

By default, Followers will return the followers of the authenticated user. By specifying a Followers_Of_User_Id or Followers_Of_Screen_Name, the followers of the specified user will be returned.

LookUpUsers refers to looking up additional information about the followers returned from Twitter. Normally only the Ids of followers are returned from Twitter. If LookUpUsers is set to true, additional queries will be made to Twitter to retrieve user details, such as the Screen_Name. LookUpUsers is true by default.

MaxUserLookup refers to the maximum number of users to additionally look up information on. A maximum of 100 user details may be returned from Twitter per request. Setting this value higher will cause details for more users to be returned, but at the cost of additional requests. MaxUserLookup defaults to 100.
