Description
Is anyone having issues pulling tweets before 1/25/18? Yesterday I was able to pull 1/1/16 to 11/20/17 searching for a particular topic, but today I am not able to repull any subset of these historical tweets and I am not returning any results prior to 1/25/18. Just wondering if anyone is having a similar issue.
UPDATE
I have found a solution. I changed the user-agent assignment in the header assignment in TweetManager.py to this:
('User-Agent', "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/36.0.1985.143 Safari/537.36")
Where previously only the Mozilla user agent was specified. I am presently running a more robust pull to see if this is a viable long term solution and not a band-aid .
