# GET /search/tweets.json

`GET /search/tweets.json`

Returns a collection of
relevant Tweets matching a specified query.

Please note that Twitter's search service and, by extension, the Search API is not meant to be an
exhaustive source of Tweets. Not all Tweets will be indexed or made available via the search
interface.

In API v1.1, the response format of the Search API has been improved to return Tweet objects more
similar to the objects you'll find across the REST API and platform. You may need to tolerate some
inconsistencies and variance in perspectival values (fields that pertain to the perspective of the
authenticating user) and embedded user objects.
