Twitter metadata mappings

[gavin1211]

Funnelback guide say: The Twitter gathering template includes a number of Twitter specific metadata mappings, including author, tweet and post date. See the $SEARCH_HOME/share/custom_collection_templates/xml.cfg.twitter file for a complete list.

Can somebody please share the schema for this - so we can see what's available to use?

Thanks

HI Gavin -

These files are starting points for mapping and indexing XML responses from the Twitter API. The default mapping list is intended to capture as many fields as possible, but refrains from using the long-form metadata class names (https://docs.funnelback.com/metadata_class.html).

You could also use a setting like https://docs.funnelback.com/indexing_additional_metamap_source_collection_cfg.html to define your own reusable mappings. In practice, all fields coming back from the Twitter API are available for use, provided you've got a corresponding entry in your collection's xml.cfg.

$SEARCH_HOME/share/custom_collection_templates/xml.cfg.twitter looks like:
