I have the user ids of various twitter accounts. Now I need to find number of followers those users has within a specified time period. How can i do that. I have been using tweepy. There is a method to find the total number of followers of a user. But there is no method to find the total number of followers within a specified time interval.
i used the following code
bearer_token= 'xxx'
client = tweepy.Client(bearer_token)
res = client.get_users_followers(user_id)
This program return the total number of followers a user has till this date. I need to retrieve total number of followers a user has within a time period
Your question has the answer in itself.
"There is no method to find the total number of followers within a specified time interval". That is correct, as you can see by the API documentation as well.
Here's another thread that specifies that this isn't possible for your use case.
