Twitter API -> https://api.twitter.com/1.1/followers/list.json?cursor=-1&screen_name=dogecoin&skip_status=true&include_user_entities=true

returns list of followers and their entities but is there any way to get list of only those followers who have certain number follower threshold value?

I am trying to get list of followers for a particular user but of only those followers who have more than 50k followers.

  1. There is no way to do this in the Twitter API, no.

  2. With your target twitter account, you could :

    • in a loop: get followers’ids with GET followers/ids (up to 5000 by each request).
    • in another loop: get information for each id with GET users/lookup (up to 100 ids by request)
    • And filter on users having followers_count >= 50k
