Search Tweets from Twitter API returns no result - twitter

Question

First time trying to get Twitter API to work. I followed these instructions: https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/tweets/search/quick-start/recent-search
I got my API Key and secret and bearer token.
In postman I tried: https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets/search/recent?query=from:taylorswift13&tweet.fields=created_at&expansions=author_id&user.fields=description
But it returned nothing(I tried other username as well and less params), in authorization I picked bearer token and pasted it so I should be okay there(I tried entering a wrong token and there it told me authentication error so I believe the authentication part is fine). I tried to do the API key one and it also didn't work. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Answer 1

You needs to remove the from: in query value.
The token got it correctly.
From
from:taylorswift13
To
taylorswift13
So The recent search URL is
https://api.twitter.com/2/tweets/search/recent?tweet.fields=created_at&expansions=author_id&user.fields=description&query=taylorswift13
Get Access Token
https://api.twitter.com/oauth2/token?grant_type=client_credentials
This API can get the user name by user ID
https://api.twitter.com/2/users/{user-id}
This code will help to get all of tweets for specific user by name
import tweepy
bearer_token ="your token"
client = tweepy.Client(bearer_token=bearer_token)
user_name="taylorswift13"
user = client.get_user(username=user_name)
user_id = user.data.id
tweets = client.get_users_tweets(id=user_id)
count = 0
for tweet in tweets.data:
print(tweet.id, " -> ",tweet.text)
count += 1
print('---------------------------------------------------------', count)
next_token = tweets.meta['next_token']
while next_token != None:
tweets = client.get_users_tweets(id=user_id, pagination_token=next_token)
if tweets.data is not None:
for tweet in tweets.data:
print(tweet.id, " -> ",tweet.text)
count += 1
print('---------------------------------------------------------', count)
if (tweets.meta['next_token']) is not None:
next_token = tweets.meta['next_token']
else:
next_token = None
else:
next_token = None
It has a minor error but most tweet will display
(total 570 tweets)
Error
if (tweets.meta and tweets.meta['next_token']) is not None:
KeyError: 'next_toke
