Twitter Engagement

Look up a tweet

Resolve a single tweet by ID or URL into its text, author and public metrics.

Use this to render a post you are referencing, e.g. the tweet quoted by a quote-style post. Unlike /v1/twitter/search this is not limited to the last 7 days and works for any tweet visible to the connected account.

Billed as an X posts read ($0.005). Repeat lookups of the same tweet within the same UTC day are charged once.
