I would like to use the API to return all tweets that match my search query, but only tweets posted within the last five seconds.
With Twitter’s Search API, I can use the since_id to grab all tweets from a specific ID. However, I can’t really see a good way to find the tweet ID to begin from.
I’m also aware that you can use ‘since:’ in the actual query to use a date, but you cannot enter a time.
Can someone with Twitter API experience offer me any advice? Thanks for reading and your time!
This sounds like something you can do on your end, as created_at is one of the fields returned in the result set. Just do your query, and only use the ones that are within the last 5 seconds.
