Non-english keyword search #118

Open pattd opened 8 years ago

pattd commented 8 years ago

I used twitteR to collect tweets. When using english keyword, everything works fine. However when I tried to search keyword in Thai language (e.g. ข้าว), it returned Error in twInterfaceObj$doAPICall(cmd, params, "GET", ...) : Forbidden (HTTP 403). I have tested normal twitter search via web on the same keyword, it did return many tweets though.

Any suggestion on how to deal with this non-english keyword case?

Can you provide the specific R code you used?
