How to reconstruct the original Tweet ?

Hello everyone !

Here is the result I get in the CSV for this tweet :

My issue is that I want to be able to construct the original text of the tweet, and I get to have the mentions and emojis filtered, which is nice for me because I do want to treat them independently, but what I'm missing is an indication of at which character position in the tweet they belong. So that I place the "👍" back at its place, as well as the mentions in order.

I know when I used to use the API before they made it hard to use it, the API was providing me with the positions for everything, as well as the tweet with the original text.

Is there a possibility to add that ? Or is it possible already to get that information using that project and I missed it ?

Thanks ! ♥
