Data API

Get Tweet Comments

Returns an array of comments for a given tweet_id. This endpoint only works for top-level tweets (i.e. this can't be used to retrieve comments posted in response to other comments).

get/twitter/tweets/{tweet_id}/comments

Path parameters

tweet_idstring required

The numerical ID of the target tweet. When using languages where the id value exceeds the default Integer type limit (e.g., JavaScript), you should store id as a String. Use the id_str property returned by the API for these values.

Query parameters

cursorstring

Cursor value obtained from next_cursor response property. Use this parameter to retrieve additional pages. Omit this parameter to retrieve the first page.

Response

Request succeeded

next_cursorstring required

Cursor value used to obtain the subsequent page. To be passed to the same endpoint as 'cursor' query parameter. Value may contain spaces and other special characters and therefore must be url-encoded to avoid any errors
