Example 1 : Finding the number of users blocked by the authenticated user using the blocks_ids() method.
# import the module import tweepy # assign the values accordingly consumer_key = "" consumer_secret = "" access_token = "" access_token_secret = "" # authorization of consumer key and consumer secret auth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret) # set access to user's access key and access secret auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret) # calling the api api = tweepy.API(auth) # getting the blocked users blocked_users = api.blocks_ids() # printing the number of blocked users print(len(blocked_users)) |
Output :
63
