In order to get the text of the status, we have to do the following :
Identify the status ID of the status from the GUI.Get the Status object of the status using the get_status() method with the status ID. If we want to get the complete text, pass another parameter tweet_mode = "extended".From this object, fetch the text attribute present in it. If we want to get the complete text, fetch the attribute full_text.
Identify the status ID of the status from the GUI.
Get the Status object of the status using the get_status() method with the status ID. If we want to get the complete text, pass another parameter tweet_mode = "extended".
From this object, fetch the text attribute present in it. If we want to get the complete text, fetch the attribute full_text.
Example 1 : Consider the following status :
We will use the status ID to fetch the status. The status ID of the above mentioned status is 1272771459249844224.
# import the moduleimport tweepy  # assign the values accordinglyconsumer_key = ""consumer_secret = ""access_token = ""access_token_secret = ""  # authorization of consumer key and consumer secretauth = tweepy.OAuthHandler(consumer_key, consumer_secret)  # set access to user's access key and access secret auth.set_access_token(access_token, access_token_secret)  # calling the api api = tweepy.API(auth)  # the ID of the statusid = 1272771459249844224  # fetching the statusstatus = api.get_status(id)  # fetching the text attributetext = status.text   print("The text of the status is : \n\n" + text)
Output :
The text of the status is :

Example 2 : Consider the following status :
We will use the status ID to fetch the status. The status ID of the above mentioned status is 1272479136133627905. This time we will be fetching the complete text of the status. While using the get_status() method also pass tweet_mode = "extended" as a parameter. Then fetch the complete text using the full_text attribute.
# the ID of the statusid = 1272479136133627905  # fetching the status with extended tweet_modestatus = api.get_status(id, tweet_mode = "extended")  # fetching the full_text attributefull_text = status.full_text   print("The text of the status is : \n\n" + full_text)
Output :
The text of the status is :
