Hello,

I need to collect Tweets from 2011 until 2020, by filtering using some keywords. Is it possible to go that far in the past with my standard Academic Research account? In case it is possible, how can I do it?

Best,

Víctor

If you have a developer account and all you see on your dashboard is “Standard” then you do not have Academic Access (which gives you full archive search) you apply to this separately. Maybe this will help Twitter Developer Access - twarc twarc can make these searches in the command line like:

twarc2 search --archive --start-time "2011-01-01" --end-time "2020-01-01" "query" output.jsonl

See twarc2 (en) - twarc for more

Thank you very much for your helpful reply, @IgorBrigadir . Is there a way to use a similar line in R program?

Thank you @suhemparack ! I have followed the link you sent me. Even though it allows me to go deep in the past, I can’t collect more than 100 tweets per query… Any way to download all of tweets in the specified timeframe in one shot?
