Hello. I have a Standard API and I’m using R package twitteR to scrape tweets. Tweets are collected in a dataframe that consists of several variables; one of them is “id”, which should stand for the integer representation of the unique identifier for a specified Tweet. I would like to know if a Tweet and its Retweet share the same ID.

No, they do not - every tweet is a unique id. But, for retweets, the original tweet along with all the original info is included in retweeted_status object inside each unique retweet.
