#### Manage follows: Standard v1.1 compared to X API v2

If you have been working with the standard v1.1 [POST friendships/create](https://developer.x.com/en/docs/twitter-api/v1/accounts-and-users/follow-search-get-users/api-reference/post-friendships-create) and [POST friendships/destroy](https://developer.x.com/en/docs/twitter-api/v1/accounts-and-users/follow-search-get-users/api-reference/post-friendships-destroy) endpoints, the goal of this guide is to help you understand the similarities and differences between the standard and X API v2 manage follows endpoints.

* **Similarities**
  * OAuth 1.0a User Context
* **Differences**
  * Endpoint URLs
  * App and Project requirements
  * HTTP methods
  * Request parameters

#### Similarities

**OAuth 1.0a User Context authentication method**

Both the endpoint versions support [OAuth 1.0a User Context](/resources/fundamentals/authentication#oauth-1-0a-2). Therefore, if you were previously using one of the standard v1.1 manage follows endpoints, you can continue using the same authentication method if you migrate to the X API v2 version.

#### Differences

**Endpoint URLs**

* Standard v1.1 endpoints:
  * POST [https://api.x.com/1.1/friendships/create.json](https://api.x.com/1.1/friendships/create.json)
    (follow a user)
  * POST [https://api.x.com/1.1/friendships/destroy.json](https://api.x.com/1.1/friendships/destroy.json)
    (unfollow a user)
* X API v2 endpoint:
  * POST [https://api.x.com/2/users/:id/following](https://api.x.com/2/users/:id/following)
    (follow a user)
  * DELETE [https://api.x.com/2/users/:source\\\_user\\\_id/following/:target\\\_user\\\_id](https://api.x.com/2/users/:source\\_user\\_id/following/:target\\_user\\_id)
    (unfollow a user)

**App and Project requirements**

The X API v2 endpoints require that you use credentials from a [developer App](/resources/fundamentals/developer-apps) that is associated to a [Project](/resources/fundamentals/developer-apps) when authenticating your requests.
