Hi Yusuke,
Unfortunately the source: operator as it is currently

and the second is that it can only search the last 7 days. This is a

Integrating search into your friends_timeline is something we want to do in
the future. With the separation of the Search and REST APIs, it isn't a
trivial feature. For now, you have to parse out results from timelines
client side.

It should be noted that you can't just search for a source alone, you

Assuming you get the json data somehow and store it in a variable

I have not used java in a long time, but there should be a next_page

HI,
Can you give me an example how i can use prev_url and next_url with max_id.
No I am following below process to search
1. Set rpp=100 and retrieve 15 pages search results by incrementing
the param 'page'
2. Get the id of the last status on page 15 and set that as the max_id
for the next
The use of prev_url and next_url will take care of step 1 from your
flow described above. Specifically, next_url will give your
application the URI to contact to get the next page of results.
Combining max_id and next_url usage will not solve the duplicate
problem. To overcome that issue, you
I'm not sure of these next_url and prev_url fields (never seen
them anywhere), but at least in the json data there is a next_page
field which uses ?page=_max_id=__ already prefilled for you.
This should definitely avoid the duplicate tweet issue. I've never
had to do any client-side

What is Pagination? Does it mean that I cannot use max_id for searching

Please explain with example if possible.

Pagination is defined well here [1].
The next_url and prev_url fields give your client HTTP URIs to move
forward and backward through the result set. You can use them to page
through search results.
I have some work to do on the search docs and I'll add field
definitions then as well.
Hi Basha,
The max_id is only intended to be used for pagination via the

It is not documented as a valid parameter because it's known to only
work in the case it was designed for. We added the max_id to prevent
