twarc: Cannot find user_verified_type in the tweet metadata

Should be all done now! v2.14.0 is the latest version and has the extra fields for v1.1 and v2

pip install --upgrade twarc

to update

Thank you! I just upgraded twarc. And yes, I can see verified_type now.

AH! you’re right! My mistake - it was my messed up environments after all.

The latest 2.13.0 release indeed does not have that commit https://github.com/DocNow/twarc/blame/6d9b68f227ebadfe6e4b8d70bb951ea7cf78ba31/twarc/expansions.py#L43

@zhaomin1995 To fix this, the quickest way is to install directly from the latest main:

pip install --force https://github.com/DocNow/twarc/archive/main.zip

that should fix it! But we should release a new fix version on pypi - i don’t think i have access to do that so @edsu might have to release

Thanks for your response! I will wait for the latest release for this issue 😊

@igorbrigadir you are listed as a maintainer of twarc on pypi, so you should have permission to do this?

@igorbrigadir - looks like there hasn’t been a release since the field was added, I think that’s the issue.

What version of twarc do you have? It works in the latest one,

pip install --upgrade twarc

It worked for me:
