Twitter Quote

Blocks for retrieving quote tweets on Twitter/X.

Twitter Get Quote Tweets

What it is

This block gets quote tweets for a specific tweet.

How it works

This block queries the Twitter API v2 to retrieve tweets that quote a specific tweet. Quote tweets are retweets with added commentary, allowing users to share the original tweet while adding their own thoughts.

The block uses Tweepy with OAuth 2.0 authentication and supports extensive expansions to include additional data like media, author information, and location details. Returns paginated results with tweet IDs, text content, and complete tweet data.
