X (Twitter) Tweet Replies Scraper

X (Twitter)

Operated by Sourcelane✓ verified

A scraper that extracts every reply (comment) under an X/Twitter post, capturing full reply text, reply identifiers and URLs, creation timestamps, author metadata (username, display name, follower counts, verification status), engagement metrics (likes, retweets, replies, quotes, views, bookmarks), and conversation context to reconstruct threads (in-reply-to and conversation relationships). The connector supports cursor-based pagination and multi-run resume to crawl large reply threads, and offers sorting by relevance, recency, or likes. Outputs are structured per-reply records optimized for text analysis, engagement analysis, and conversation-level reconstruction, suitable for sentiment analysis, community mapping, brand monitoring, and lead discovery.
