Command Ran

I have been trying to gather tweets that use the twitter poll functionality. As an example, I tried scraping tweets from the "SurveyTendencia" account.

import twint

Twint parameters and search

config = twint.Config() config.Username = "SurveyTendencia" twint.run.Search(config)

Description of Issue

I have been trying to extract poll results from tweets, but I am unsure if this is possible with the use of a twitter scrapper. Right now, Twint only returns the text of the tweet (without the poll), but neither the options nor the poll results are returned. Is this possible?

Environment Details

Running twint in a python script. Importing it as a module. Script running on Windows 10.

Thanks in advance.

Edit. Added code for better reproducibility.

Sorry, It's not supported as of now.

[Juanjoglvz]

Any idea if this is even possible (although not implemented)? Or is it completely impossible (because twitter does not return the metadata needed)?

[himanshudabas]

Yes, it's Possible.
