Retweet_count and favorite count always zero

[bhuvankalra921]

i have same problem but in that am using api.search() i think it gets historical data but it gives right retweet count but wrong favorite count=0.and also if i check the data for retweeted tweet it will give right favorite count

Note that the favorite count is a perspectival attribute, which means that it may show accurately when the authenticating user is the owner of the object, but not at other times.

Hello, I use app only authentication with bearer token(premium account sandbox). I search tweets with the words I like and get successfull respond except favorite_count and retweet_count. Am I not authenticated to see count of retweet or favorited of a tweet? or something wrong with Twitter api?

Thanks for reaching out here. I am not able to replicate this issue at this time. Let me know what your API call and response was and we’ll proceed with troubleshooting.

I was using this endpoint:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/tweets/search/30day/dev.json

This was the query I was using:

{
"query":"from:TwitterDev lang:en",
"maxResults": 10,
"fromDate":"201808240000", 
"toDate":"201809111806"
}
