Project description: Digital Media Lab is continually engaged in exploring ways to systematically harvest data from social media platforms and how such data can be repurposed for digital media research. We examine APIs supported by various platforms (Facebook, X, TikTok, Telegram, Bluesky etc.) and their rate limits considering the boundaries of what is possible in terms of access, collection and analysis.
Status: We currently have a research license to use the TikTok API and is currently involved in applying for access to Metas platforms.
