Adding user list in the StreamingClient in Tweepy

I am writing the code for listening to the real-time Tweets from a specific list of users (more than 500 users). I read the Tweepy library documentation, and I could not find how to add the user list. Following is my code:

    import tweepy
brearer_token = "XXXXXXX-XXXXX"
class tweetListener(tweepy.StreamingClient):
    def on_data(self, raw_data):
        print(raw_data)

stream = tweetListener(bearer_token=bearer_token)
user_list = ['user_id1', 'user_id2']
stream.filter(user_fields = user_list)

Going through the documentation, I came across that in the filter() there is a parameter name user_fields. However, this encountered 400 errors.

The user_fields parameter of StreamingClient.filter is used to specify the fields you want for User objects.

Instead, you need to add rules with StreamingClient.add_rules.

For more information, you can refer to the guide to using StreamingClient in Tweepy's documentation and the Twitter API guide on building rules for filtered stream.
