I have a twitter app on iOS that loads a user profile, then their list
of friends then tweets from a handful of the friends. During this last
part I'm using a API call like:
https://api.twitter.com/1/statuses/user_timeline/akmed13.json?include_entities=true&trim_user=true&page=4&count=50
The problem I'm noticing is that sometimes this returns an empty
collection. The app logs the call as suspicious since it didn't generate
an error but was also an empty result, I then try the call in my browser
and it always works as expected (I get the list of tweets in json).
Is there anything I can do to help prevent this behavior. Its very
sporadic best I can tell. I'm stumped.
I've tried googling but am not seeing anything.
I don't think it's a rate limit issue as I'm not getting back error
codes, and later queries work fine.
I don't think its a capacity issue as I've seen those, they come back as
502.
Any suggestion welcome. Thanks.
