Hello i am new to twitter api. I recently started testing using Tweepy, it seems that Tweepy uses API v1.1. I’ve been reading about real-time stream limits, and on v2 i can get 500k/month tweets. About API v1.1, it seems the limit is 1% of all public tweets. I would like to confirm this, using the v1.1 of the api, can i get tweets without this monthly limitation as long as i don’t exceed 1% of all tweets?

Yes, in v1.1 you get all tweets that match your filter POST statuses/filter | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform , but then if the volume exceeds 1% of all public tweets, you start getting limit notices in the stream to let you know you’re missing tweets. Or you get 1% sample GET statuses/sample | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform

Thank you so much IgorBrigadir! Just to confirm, is it free to get these 1% of all public tweets?

Yes, those endpoints are free.
