How to know the number of photos in a Tweet from Twitter API Java JSON
Question
Anyone know if it's possible to know the real number of photos in a tweets from the twitter SEARCH api. As an example this tweet has 4 photos https://twitter.com/wtfbaile/status/652694439584993280/photo/1
Currently in order to do that, I must do 2 requests. The number of photos is only available in the second request.
The first one : (I only have one photo .. And I cannot know if there are more ..)
I would like to know if there are more, in order to don't do the second request
Result :

As you've discovered, the Search API doesn't include support for "extended_entities" - which means no multiple images directly from search.
There are two ways you can get this info,
- Use https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/show/652694439584993280.json as you've demonstrated.
- Use statuses/lookup if you want to get the extended_entities of multiple tweets simultaneously. Eg https://api.twitter.com/1.1/statuses/lookup.json?id=652694439584993280,1234567,9876543 ,...
