How is the trends place sorted? #1213
-
|
I was getting global trending topics with the trends_place function and I noticed they weren't sorted by number of tweets so I was wondering if that was a goof somewhere on tweepy's end or what was going on there. So less of an issue more of a general question but I was wondering if anyone knew the answer. |

They're returned in the order that the Twitter API provides for that endpoint. |

The
tweet_volumereturned is for the last 24 hour, which is not necessarily how it's sorted.See https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/trends/trends-for-location/api-reference/get-trends-place and https://twittercommunity.com/t/is-there-any-easy-way-to-get-top-trending-topics/104746/6 for more information.
