Commented Unassigned: How to search users? [2589]

Hi:

I want to search users by term but no specific method developed for this.
I have surfed the web and I have found this:

TwitterAccessor.ExecuteGETQuery<IEnumerable<IUserDTO>>("https://api.twitter.com/1.1/users/search.json?q=" + search);

This works ok but I want the total results of the query.

- How to get this value?
- How to get the rate limit to store the results?

Thanks in advance
Regards

Hi,

Sorry for not replying to your issue but I did not receive any notification from codeplex, which seems to have some issues for few weeks.

Concerning your question, there is no other method in the Twitter API allowing to search for a massive number of users. What you need to do is use the method that I have given you and use RateLimits to query again and again until the pages no longer return any result that you do not already have.

Cheers,
Linvi
