Connector Improvement: Twitter - User Followers

Answered
Mucker Martin User

Hi Fivetran Product Team, 

As we continue to enhance the Twitter Organic connector, one of our requests is to acquire the number of followers for a Twitter page/handle to be included in the data we are pulling for the Twitter Connector. For example, how many followers does Slim Jim have. Seems like a metric that would fall in an account table. According to another data pipeline provide; this metric is available as the field user_followers (https://supermetrics.com/docs/integration-twitter-premium-fields/)

Possible Twitter documentation:  https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/users/follows/introduction

Let me know if additional details are needed. 

Thank You, 

Marty

    Hi Martin, Drew from the Product Team here!

    Thanks for sharing this request for new data. We're definitely looking into ways to supply this type of data as we are currently adding it to our Instagram Business connector. The reason that it does not currently exist in the Twitter connector is due to the connector being based on the Twitter Ads APIs which supply Account information, but not metrics.

    We'll continue looking at solutions to bring in this data and I will update here when we find a solution.
