Search unavailable on twitter?
I have been trying to use the Twitter scraper to extract Tweets containing certain terms from certain users, between two dates.
I can see warnings about twitter search not working, but the scraper is returning results just without the key word distinction.
Is this fixable using the 'login cookies' option? I have limited technical skills but really need this data for an upcoming research project.
If anyone can give advice I'd really appreciate it!

Search no longer available without login, so it should work with cookies, just be careful, do not scrape too much

So, how do we add cookies in the scrapper?
Hey, NotHere.
Unfortunately, it's no longer possible to use cookies for search.
So, the only option is to wait for fixes of "search" functionality from the internal team.
