# \[AUTHENTICATED READ\] Dm User Updates

`GET /tw-v2/interaction/dm-user-updates`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.tweetapi.com`
- URL: `https://api.tweetapi.com/tw-v2/interaction/dm-user-updates`
- Auth: API key in header `X-API-Key`

Poll for new DM updates and changes. Use the cursor from inbox-initial-state or previous dm-user-updates response to check for new messages, conversations, and updates. Ideal for real-time DM monitoring.

## Query parameters

- `authToken` string, required: Caller-supplied auth_token cookie value. Treat it as a secret.
- `cursor` string, required: Opaque pagination cursor returned by a previous response.
- `proxy` string

## Response `200`

Successful response

- DmUpdatesResponse

## Other responses

- `400`: The request is invalid. Check the parameters and try again.
- `401`: The TweetAPI key or caller-supplied Twitter authentication token is missing or invalid.
- `403`: The authenticated account is not permitted to perform the operation.
- `404`: The requested resource or route was not found.
- `429`: A plan limit rejected the request. The code field says which one. RATE_LIMITED means the per-minute limit was exceeded; wait for Retry-After. QUOTA_EXHAUSTED means the allowance and prepaid balance are used up. SUBSCRIPTION_INACTIVE means the subscription has expired or is inactive. Retrying won't fix the last two. A 429 without a code is temporary; retry with bounded backoff. This response does not include X-RateLimit headers.
- `500`: The request could not be completed.
- `503`: Request allowance is temporarily unavailable. This request was not processed. Follow Retry-After before trying again; contact support if the error persists.
