Hi team, This is regarding the follow parameter in the friendships create request. Based on the API document below, the follow parameter is to control the notifications from the specified user.
follow Enable notifications for the target user. http://api.twitter.com/1/friendships/create.xml?follow=true http://dev.twitter.com/doc/post/friendships/create My question is: can we create a friendships without receiving a notification from the user, meaning creating a friendship, so that we can receive a direct messages from the user, without having a tweets from that user in the home timeline? Here is the sample REST request for your reference. https://api.twitter.com/1/friendships/create?screen_name=somebody&follow=false Thank you in advance, Kei Noguchi @keinoguchi -- Twitter developer documentation and resources: http://dev.twitter.com/doc API updates via Twitter: http://twitter.com/twitterapi Issues/Enhancements Tracker: http://code.google.com/p/twitter-api/issues/list Change your membership to this group: http://groups.google.com/group/twitter-development-talk
