Re: [twitter-dev] https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/justinbieber.json?count=20 not working

It should be pointed out that those aren't valid API URLs..

You want to execute these requests against API.twitter.com/1/resource...

The best way to construct your URL would be like this: (it reduces
ambiguity)

https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline.json?screen_name=justinbiebercount=20

Finally, we are having some strange issues with certain timelines. If you're
running into this, it means the timeline is being a bit erratic. Try
requesting a higher count, like 100. We are looking into this behavior and
hope to fix it soon.

 I'm using this URL:
 https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/justinbieber.json?count=20

 If I try the timeline for other users it works fine. for example:
 https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/cnn.json?count=20

 Any idea why this is happening?

 If I go to http://twitter.com/justinbieber it seems to be okay, but
 when using
 https://twitter.com/statuses/user_timeline/justinbieber.json?count=20
 it keeps returning an empty array...

In addition make sure you add the parameter include_rts=1 to the request.

The include_rts flag instructs the API to include retweets in the response. 
Looking at the timeline you requested it looks as if the last 20 Tweets by that 
user are retweets - which, by default, are not included in the timeline but are 
included in the count.

Best,
Matt
