Twitter Get Blocked Users

What it is

This block retrieves a list of users blocked by the authenticating user.

How it works

<!-- MANUAL: how_it_works -->

This block uses the Twitter API v2 via Tweepy to retrieve a paginated list of users that the authenticated account has blocked. It authenticates using OAuth 2.0 with the required scopes (users.read, block.read) and sends a request to Twitter's blocked users endpoint.

The response includes user IDs and usernames by default, with optional expansions to include additional data like pinned tweets. Pagination is supported through tokens, allowing retrieval of large block lists in batches of up to 1,000 users per request.
