# Location

You can use the `Location` parameter to retrieve tweets that originate from a specific geographic region. This parameter accepts a comma-separated list of longitude and latitude values. Each region is a square, defined by four values in the following order:

    [Longitude West], [Latitude South], [Longitude East], [Latitude North]

For example, the following set of values specifies the entire globe:

    -180,-90,180,90

For more information about how to select the tweets to retrieve, refer to the Twitter API documentation.

NOTE: To retrieve information from a filtered stream through the Twitter V2 API, OpenText recommends that you set the parameter FilteredStreamRule instead.

Use this parameter to retrieve data from the Twitter V1 API when you set `StreamType=statuses/filter`. The connector then retrieves any tweet that matches Language (if set) and FilterLevel, and at least one of the parameters Follow, Location, or Track.
