Response

Raw JSON of X's TweetDetail query. The focal tweet and replies are entries in data.threaded_conversation_with_injections_v2.instructions. X sends about 20 to 35 reply threads (conversationthread entries) per page; the page size is fixed. The bottom cursor is an entry with cursorType "Bottom" at the end of the entries.

Simple format (?format=simple or X-Response-Format: simple): Collection of Tweet objects: {data: [Tweet], nextCursor, previousCursor, hasNextPage}. The conversation in display order: ancestors, the tweet itself, then replies; threads (modules) are flattened. Schema.
