twitter-ads
A Twitter supported and maintained Ads API SDK for Python.
Decision gist · record as of 2026-08-14
No, unless you are maintaining legacy code that already depends on it. The package is abandoned with no updates since 2022, and the Twitter Ads API has likely evolved since then. For new projects, contact Twitter directly or use a maintained third-party SDK. If you must use it, verify that the current API endpoints and authentication methods still match the SDK's implementation.AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying
Before you install
- Requires valid Twitter Ads API credentials (consumer key/secret and access token/secret) and an active Twitter Ads account.
- Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel distribution.
- However, the package is abandoned—last release was 2022-05-27 with no commits since then.

Verify before relying

- Whether dependencies (pyyaml, requests-oauthlib, python-dateutil) have received security updates since the last release.
- Support status for Python versions beyond 3.7 (e.g., 3.8, 3.9, 3.10+).
What it is and what it does
twitter-ads is an official Python SDK for the Twitter Ads API that provides a client-based interface to manage advertising accounts, campaigns, and related resources. It wraps OAuth-authenticated HTTP requests to Twitter's Ads endpoints and models API responses as Python objects, allowing you to create, read, update, and iterate over campaigns and account data programmatically.
The package depends on pyyaml, requests-oauthlib, and python-dateutil to handle configuration, OAuth flows, and date parsing. It includes built-in support for rate-limit handling, request retries, and timeout configuration. However, the project has been abandoned since May 2022—the last commit was over three years ago, and no maintenance or updates are being applied. This means API changes, security issues in dependencies, and compatibility problems with newer Python versions will not be addressed.
Use it for
- Automate bulk campaign updates across multiple Twitter Ads accounts without manual dashboard interaction.
- Build reporting tools that fetch campaign performance metrics and account data programmatically.
- Manage campaign lifecycle (create, pause, resume, delete) as part of a larger advertising workflow.
- Integrate Twitter advertising operations into a custom business intelligence or media buying platform.
