It’s been over two years now since Twitter resurrected its developer API as “version 2” and optimistically welcomed back all the third-party developers it had rug-pulled at the end of Web 2.0. To find out what progress Twitter has made with its API v2, I caught up with https://twitter.com/ashevat, Head of Product for the developer platform at Twitter.

It turns out, bots may be the key to fully utilizing the Twitter API v2.

In addition to bots, the Twitter API v2 is also trying to innovate with the formats for content.

The public conversation will soon be in private hands, which means more uncertainty for third-party developers.
