[SOLVED] Twitter API query using python Twitter gives few results

Twitter API query using python Twitter gives few results

I am using Python Twitter to download data from tweets about youTube videos : https://github.com/bear/python-twitter/blob/master/doc/index.rst

def TW():
    return twitter.Api(consumer_key='X',consumer_secret='X',access_token_key='X-X',access_token_secret='X')

for i in TW().GetSearch(term='https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftP6Uh_jSUg', count=1000, include_entities=True):
    print('TWEET_URL','twitter.com/'+str(i.user.screen_name)+'/status/'+str(i.id),i.urls,'RETWEETS',i.retweet_count,'USER_MENTIONS',i.user_mentions,'TEXT',i.text,'USER_ID',i.user.id,'USER',i.user.screen_name)

When I use GetSearch, I get few results. For example, I get only this one with the previous video query.

TWEET_URL twitter.com/Niza_Club/status/740770459030032384 [URL(URL=XX, ExpandedURL=https://youtu.be/ftP6Uh_jSUg)] RETWEETS 0 USER_MENTIONS [User(ID=10228272, ScreenName=YouTube)] TEXT Juniore - A la plage vía @YouTube USER_ID 20470260 USER Niza_Club

While the same query done manually on Twitter gives me 15 results, including 5 in the last month : https://twitter.com/search?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DftP6Uh_jSUg&src=typd

How can I get the other results ? Is there a better tool that is using Twitter API ? One without it ?

Solution

Found the answer here : Can I use twitter api to search tweets one week before?

Also note that the search results at twitter.com may return historical results while the Search API usually only serves tweets from the past week. - Twitter documentation.
