Retrieve all users who retweeted a tweet

WARNING:

You are viewing an outdated version of our documentation. For the latest and most accurate information, please visit docs.socialdata.tools.

This endpoint returns an array of user profiles that retweeted the target tweet identified by tweet_id. The profiles are returned in reverse chronological order, with the most recent retweets appearing on the first page.

Endpoint

GET https://api.socialdata.tools/twitter/tweets/[tweet_id]/retweeted_by?cursor=...

Endpoint parameters

Name	Description	Example
tweet_id (Required)	The numerical ID of the desired Tweet.	1729591119699124560
cursor (optional)	Cursor value obtained from next_cursor response property. Omit this value to retrieve the first page	HBbS87H7icrezjEAAA==

Common Issues and Best Practices

• In languages where the tweet_id value exceeds the default Integer type limit (e.g., Node.js), store tweet_id as a string. Use the id_str property returned by the API for these values

• Always URL-encode the cursor value when passing it back to the API for subsequent requests

Response codes

• HTTP 200 OK - succeeded

• HTTP 402 Payment Required - not enough credits to perform this request

• HTTP 404 Not Found - requested tweet does not exist

• HTTP 422 Unprocessable Content - validation failed (e.g. one of the required parameters was not provided)

• HTTP 500 Internal Server Error - other error, typically means that SocialData API failed to obtain the requested information and you should try again later

Rate limits

By default each user has a limit of 120 requests per minute shared across all endpoints. Please reach out to [e-mail] if you need to raise your rate limit.
