Tweet Lookup API | Replies, Retweeters and Threads
Tweet Details: Resolve a single tweet into its full object: replies, retweeters, and the complete conversation thread.
Resolve a single tweet into its full object: replies, retweeters, and the complete conversation thread.
Start with /tweet/detail to resolve a tweet ID into its full object. From there, /tweet/replies and /tweet/retweeters page through that tweet's direct engagement, /tweet/quotes finds posts that quoted it, and /tweet/thread is the odd one out: it walks FORWARD from a tweet to reconstruct everything the same author posted after it as a continuation, not backward through what it replied to. That directionality is the most common mistake integrating this category, so it is worth stating plainly here rather than only on the endpoint page.
This category has 5 endpoints. Each is a pay-per-call REST endpoint with bearer auth, JSON in and out.
