Hi everyone. Currently, we are doing a research project at university to understand the user’s behavior from their tweets. We are planning to publish a paper, and this requires collecting tweets and providing the dataset online.

  1. Is it possible to upload the dataset on Github to be shared and in what format (.csv)? What’s the maximum number of shared tweets?
  2. Is it possible to collect the tweets using web scraping techniques through HTML?

Thanks!

Web scraping is explicitly against the Twitter Terms of Service (see section 4). You should use the Twitter API for any access to Twitter data.
