The following OAuth authorized request doesn’t appear to work:
https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=%23AACR
“#” = %23, does not appear to work, returns 0 results. The old API was capable of searching on hash tag and now it’s not.
Is there some reason we wouldn’t be able to search on a hash tag? Seems like a necessary component of the search functionality.
If I remove the hash tag component “%23” I get back a bunch of results in json format, but they are not screened by hash tag and therefore of very little use. They often includes screen names and other information.
