Archive tweets by keyword

To archive tweets by keyword, follow these steps using one of the common methods available:

Method 1: Using Tweepy (Python + Twitter API v2)

1. Set up your Twitter Developer Account

   • Go to Twitter Developer Portal

   • Create a project and generate API keys (Bearer Token for v2).

2. Install Tweepy

   bash
   CopyEdit
   pip install tweepy
   

3. Python Script to Archive Tweets by Keyword

   python
   CopyEdit
   import tweepy
   import csv
   
   # Replace with your own credentials
   bearer_token = 'YOUR_TWITTER_BEARER_TOKEN'
   
   client = tweepy.Client(bearer_token=bearer_token)
   
   keyword = 'AI technology'
   max_results = 100  # up to 100 per request
   tweet_limit = 500  # total tweets to archive
   
   tweets_data = []
   next_token = None
   
   while len(tweets_data) < tweet_limit:
       response = client.search_recent_tweets(
           query=keyword,
           tweet_fields=['created_at', 'text', 'author_id'],
           max_results=max_results,
           next_token=next_token
       )
   
       if not response.data:
           break
   
       tweets_data.extend(response.data)
       next_token = response.meta.get('next_token')
       if not next_token:
           break
   
   # Save to CSV
   with open('archived_tweets.csv', 'w', newline='', encoding='utf-8') as file:
       writer = csv.writer(file)
       writer.writerow(['Tweet ID', 'Author ID', 'Created At', 'Text'])
   
       for tweet in tweets_data:
           writer.writerow([tweet.id, tweet.author_id, tweet.created_at, tweet.text])
   

Method 2: Using Tools like Zapier + Google Sheets

1. Set up a Zapier account

2. Create a new Zap:

   • Trigger: Twitter → “Search Mention” (by keyword)

   • Action: Google Sheets → “Create Spreadsheet Row”

3. Result:

   • Tweets matching your keyword are automatically archived in a Google Sheet.

Method 3: Use Advanced Twitter Search + Manual Export

1. Go to Twitter Advanced Search

2. Enter your keyword and filter by date.

3. Use browser extensions (like “Twitter Archiver” on Google Sheets or “TAGS”) to export the data.

Notes:

• Twitter API v2 allows access to 7 days of historical tweets in the free tier.

• For older tweets, you need Twitter Academic Access or a premium plan.

• Always respect Twitter’s API usage limits and data policies when archiving tweets.

If you’d like, I can tailor a script or automation setup based on your needs or environment (e.g., local, cloud, automation frequency).
