Question

I am new to using Twitter – API, how do I use PHP to get the screen names of all my followers in twitter ? which API do I need to use? please help…

Answer 1

Extracted from a very similar post from Twitter Developers:

If you just need the user ids of the users you are following or who
follow you, then it’s usually a single API call. If you need the
screen_names and other biographical data, you’ll need to chain API
requests together.

The methods you are looking for are:

• GET friends/ids and GET followers/ids for getting the ids
• GET users/lookup to “hydrate” the user_ids into full user objects
