retweets

Hi, is the code able to get all the retweets of a tweet, or just the most recent 100?

Twitter's Rest API seems to be only able to get the first 100. Do you know if there's a way to workaround that restriction?

Just came here to ask the same question. It looks like it is the most recent 100. Can you share also the retweet ids or not?

There’s no way to get more than 100 in one request, and there’s no way to paginate the results to get another 100.(https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/v1/tweets/post-and-engage/api-reference/get-statuses-retweets-id)

Unless someone has set up a periodic job that saves the 100 last retweeters to a file.
