How to set start date in search_tweets?

[VinceGa]

I want to set the search language and start + end dates in the search API. It seems i can only use Search_tweets(). But this API does not support start/end dates. Any thoughts on what API I should use?

API.search_tweets uses the standard search API, with which you can use the since and until standard search operators to specify start and end dates. For language, you can use the lang parameter of the method/endpoint.

Here's what I did:
for tweet in tweepy.Cursor(api.search_tweets, tag, lang='en',since= '202111120000').items(100):

and the result is: "Unexpected parameter: since"

Any hint?

As I said and as shown in the linked documentation, since is an operator you can use within the query itself, with a date in ISO 8601 format. It is not a parameter for the standard search API endpoint that API.search_tweets uses.
