Get friends email address/phone number from Twitter API [Android]

Is it possible to get email address or phone number of user's friends using Twitter API?

Im aware i need to ask special permission to get user's email address. But how about the user's friends?

I checked this official documentation, but cant find any email address or phone number field.

If it is really not possible, how do Path "invite" user's friends via Twitter API?

Thanks for the help

Yes it is possible to get email address from twitter api

TWTRAPIClient *client = [TWTRAPIClient clientWithCurrentUser];
    [client requestEmailForCurrentUser:^(NSString *email, NSError *error) {
        if (email) {
            NSLog(@"signed in as %@", email);
        } else {
            NSLog(@"error: %@", [error localizedDescription]);
        }

    }];

No, its not possible to get email or phone number via Twitter API. Maybe Path is sending invites using DM to your friends.
