Recovering tweets

[trabelsimarou]

Hello to all
I am a beginner in the field of information retrieval on Twitter and I need your help.
I want to know and understand how we can recover from Twitter, all tweets that are posted about a hashtag
For example all the tweets talking about the War of Mali
Help me please

u can use this: https://dev.twitter.com/console
for begining. For your “mali” example, you can use the search/tweets.json and give as a query (q*) parameter #warMali or some like that. The response is a json file that includes all information about your query.

Good luck!
