Twitter - Filter out Retweets and add to an Excel row

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 14

I'm creating an online spreadsheet and I only want to record tweets that are NOT Retweets. I can't find anything using the available Twitter commands (?) that allows me to add a condition that it's NOT a Retweet. Maybe I'm looking at the wrong items. 

 

Does anyone have any experience with this?

 

Also, is there a way to limit the Twitter API call rate and have the flow run at intervals?

    Hi @sgggt,

     

    This attribute is number type, not boolean, so on the right side of Condition should be a number:

    Hi @v-litu-msft 

     

    Would you do a  Filter Array or a Condition?

     

    Also, I don't want it to be a manual trigger. Would your step still work?

     

    Here's how I set it up and it doesn't seem to work.

    Hi @sgggt,

     

    There is a field in the tweets named "Retweet Count", if it is 0, it means it hasn't been retweeted, then you could use Filter query to filter out them:
