Ios Problem Overview


why text field value is truncated and how can i get complete value. As of now i am trying to get text field value like below

do {
       if let responseObject = try NSJSONSerialization.JSONObjectWithData(response, options: []) as? [String:AnyObject],
           arrayStatuses = responseObject["statuses"] as? [[String:AnyObject]] {
               let arrTweets:NSMutableArray = NSMutableArray()
               for status in arrayStatuses {

                   print(status["text"]!)
               }
       }
}

Solution 1 - Ios

The Twitter API has been changed recently, to support new rules regarding the 280 characters limit.

  1. To get the full text of the tweet, add parameter tweet_mode with value extended to your request parameters.
  2. Field text in the JSON response has been replaced by full_text

Solution 2 - Ios

The status in this example is a retweet, and the text for retweets will be truncated to 140 characters even after including tweet_mode=extended. The full text of the original tweet is in the retweeted_status field of the JSON response. Here's what you want:

let text = status["retweeted_status"]["full_text"].

Keep in mind that you should still include tweet_mode=extended in your request.
