    <p>I am trying to create a yahoo pipe that takes ideally takes all tweets tweeted at any point in time and filters down by a number of attributes to then display a filtered feed.</p> <p>Basically in order this is what I want to happen:</p> <ol> <li>Get a feed of all tweets at any one time.</li> <li>Filter tweets by geolocation origin, i.e. UK,</li> <li>Filter by a number of of different combinations of keywords.</li> <li>Output as an RSS feed (though this isn't really the crucial stage as Yahoo Pipes takes care of this anyway)</li> </ol> <p>Disclaimer: of course I understand that there are limits to the amount of tweets that could come through etc but I would like to cast the input net as wide as possible.</p> <p>I have managed to get stages 3 &amp; 4 working correctly and for the time being I am not really worrying about step 2 (although if you have any suggestions I am all ears), but stages 1 is where I am struggling. What I have attempted is using a Fetch Feed module with the URL - <a href="http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=lang:en" rel="nofollow">http://search.twitter.com/search.atom?q=lang:en</a> - however it seems that this only pulls 15 tweets. Is there any way that I can pull more than 15 tweets every time the pipe is run, otherwise I think this may all be in vain.</p> <p>FYI, here is the link to the pipe as it stands - <a href="http://pipes.yahoo.com/ludus247/182ef4a83885698428d57865da5cf85b" rel="nofollow">http://pipes.yahoo.com/ludus247/182ef4a83885698428d57865da5cf85b</a></p> <p>Thanks in advance!</p>

    1. COYou can't do what you want to do, it requires you to use [the streaming API for a firehose](https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1/get/statuses/firehose) which requires special permission. Also, it's a push model, not a pull model, and more than likely, you won't be able to keep up with the traffic.

    2. COAh fair enough. Is there a URL etc that I can use in order to develop a proof of concept that delivers a lot more than 15 tweets? As you can probably tell I am not a developer and am quite unfamiliar with the Twitter API.

    3. COCheck the other type of calls at the link I provided. You can perform a filtered search which will stream tweets as they come to you. Store the tweets in a database and then generate your RSS feed off that.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
