Hello guys, I am doing some research on COVID19 and I'm supposed to do sentiment analysis on Twitter data. How possible is to get 6 months old tweets using premium API?
Twitter’s Premium archive API allows for accessing tweets beyond 30 days and can go back as far as 2006. It’s an important data resource and is naturally expensive. One should be aware of certain things before they go ahead and start using it as every request is paid for and comes with a limited quota of requests.
The whole process of accessing data from premium API is documented well on Twitter’s developer page and in the documentation of R and Python libraries, but there are several aspects that are not well explained or have been left out completely.
