Endpoint: POST /quotes Description This endpoint retrieves a list of “Quote Tweets” (retweets with added comments) for a specific post. Unlike a standard retweet, a quote provides qualitative data, showing exactly what people are saying about the original content. Who is it for?
  • Sentiment Analysts: To capture the context of how a tweet is being framed by others (supportive, critical, or humorous).
  • PR Agencies: To identify influential voices who are adding their own narrative to a brand’s announcement.
  • Researchers: To track the “discourse” and evolution of a topic as it gets quoted and shared across different communities.
Use Cases
  • Collecting feedback and opinions from users who shared your post with their own commentary.
  • Identifying “viral branches” of a conversation where a quote tweet gets more engagement than the original.
  • Monitoring for misinformation or misinterpretation of your tweets in the quote section.
