Hi Community.
Please can I ask you for some help and guidance on the above topic. I have looked through the archive discussions and I can not find anything related to this topic so far.
I am researching twitter threads between Jan 1 - Dec 31 2019, and Jan 1 - Dec 31 2022, for discussions on a number of keywords that are all related to NPS drugs (benzodiazepine variants), for use in a project. I know I can use the program for real time responses, but I can not find a way to harvest old data - please can you help?

    Hi,

    the free twitter API currently only returns tweets from the ~ last seven to ten days as far as i know.

    Greetings,
