How does one get tweets using hashtags in jQuery?

Answer 1

Hello,

What you would need is the Twitter API. You'd have to:

1. Create a Twitter developer account
2. Get/setup some authentication keys in the developer dashboard
3. Figure out which of the "endpoints" you need from the ones made available by Twitter in their API
4. Make a GET request using jQuery to the Twitter endpoint you are using being sure to pass in the required information: authorization keys, and the search parameters. Search parameters will be something like the number of tweets you want, a time frame...etc

So for example:

let tweets = $.get('https://api.twitter.com/1.1/search/tweets.json?q=#hashtag')

#hashtag here would be which ever hashtag you are searching for, and of course you would need to include in this GET request the authorization key preferably in the headers.
