Example 1

For this tweet:

https://twitter.com/UrbanKaoboy/status/1520080172896055296

enter image description here

using twarc2 conversation works fine:

Example 2

However, for this tweet:

https://twitter.com/Josh_Young_1/status/1515376888096735239

enter image description here

twarc2 conversation doesn't return anything:

twarc2 conversation 1515376888096735239

Question

What's a good way to get twarc2 to return output for the second tweet?

twarc uses a search behind the scenes. The problem is the default Twitter v2 seach endpoint only returns data for the last 7 days. If you get your account blessed as part of the Academic Product Track you can search the full archive, and can use the --archive twarc option to do it.

  • For the curious, I'm using twarc2 to convert twitter conversations to Emacs org mode documents: https://twitter.com/dharmatrade/status/1520894768511074304 – dharmatech May 01 '22 at 22:39
