Hi Kathees, Yes, since twitter API doesn't have AND operation what we can do is a "filter" process. As you said, we are using the track operation only and from this stream we read the user ID and filter the ones we need. We do this manual filtering in CEP currently. If we pass the follower ID to another inbound endpoint, wouldn't we get all the tweets that this person sent?
