Tweepy is a popular package in Python used by students, researchers and developers for interacting with the Twitter API. Recently, the version 4.0 of this package was released that supports the Twitter API v2 and the academic research product track. In this guide, we will learn how to use the various functionality available in the Twitter API v2, using Tweepy.
In order to search Tweets from the last 7 days, you can use the search_recent_tweets function available in Tweepy. You will have to pass it a search query to specify the data that you are looking for. In the example below, we are searching for Tweets from the last days from the Twitter handle suhemparack and we are excluding retweets using -is:retweet.
