I am trying to use Twitter API to retrieve threads by the main tweet ID, but it seems like there is no endpoint to achieve this, so is there a way to work around with this to make it work? I have also tried to use search/recent and passing the conversation_id by it returns the comments, not the thread tweets.

Thanks in advance

  1. you should use :

    from:{user_id} to:{user_id} conversation_id:{tweet_id}

    This will fetch the tweets following the initial tweet of the thread that are sent from the user_id (=author_id) to the user_id. => All the tweets of the thread.

  2. The @Robin’s solution sometimes returns extra tweets(a series of replies by the author to someone’s reply). Using this search query param:

    ?query=conversation_id:{conversation_id} from:{author_id} to:{author_id}&tweet.fields=author_id,referenced_tweets

    you can get referenced_tweets data which helps you to reconstruct the thread.
