Hi, i am working on my thesis that requires some tweets from past. I have successfully got sandbox account, played a bit and it was great. I have made script in python that download tweets from past like:
- Code belowe is part of my script.
rule = gen_rule_payload(“point_radius:[{} {} 0.5km]”.format(longitude, latitiude),
from_date=date_begin.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"), # UTC 2017-09-01 00:00
to_date=date_until.strftime("%Y-%m-%d"),
tweets = collect_results(rule, max_results=500,result_stream_args=premium_search_args)
And it worked but i exceeded quickly sandbox limit so i bought premium access.
I executed my script again and i saw that one execution of loop (upper of above lines)
can use 6 requests. How it is possible? I am executing only once them.
I couldn’t find any information about whats is going on. My script generated almost 30 requests after 4 execution of loop.
Could someone explain it to me wy requests are generated so quickly? I can afford to buy another pack.
