Copy the URL of a public post on X or Twitter. 2. Paste it into the viewer and select **View replies**. 3. Read the conversation, select **Copy Markdown**, or download a `.md` or `.json` file. The page shows the source post, then each reply with its author, the account it answers, the text, and a View on X link. Open **Preview Markdown** to check the export before you copy it. You can start from an original post or a reply further down. The viewer follows the public conversation beneath the URL you pasted. ## Export Twitter replies as Markdown or JSON The Markdown export starts with the source post, then lists each available reply with its author, date, reply relationship, engagement counts, source link, and public media. It is ready for a local notes folder, a research document, or an AI prompt. Use JSON when you need structured post, author, engagement, media, parent, and depth fields for a script. ## Direct and nested replies stay connected A useful discussion rarely stops at the first level. Someone asks a question, another person answers it, and the best detail appears three messages later. The viewer keeps each parent relationship, labels who each reply answers, and indents nested replies so questions and follow-up answers stay together. If you only want the source author's sequence, use the [Twitter thread reader](https://keep.md/tools/x-thread-unroller). The reply viewer keeps the wider conversation from everyone who joined in. ## Use reply threads for product and audience research Replies under product launches, feature requests, technical write-ups, and opinion posts often contain better examples than the original post. Exporting the thread gives you one clean source for customer questions, competing products, repeated complaints, linked articles, and ideas people have already asked for. ## Public reply coverage has limits The reply number on X can include posts that are no longer public. Deleted replies, protected accounts, hidden posts, and withheld content cannot be exported. The viewer reports how many public replies it found, split into direct and nested replies. If the public lookup stops before it confirms the end of the conversation, the page says so and the export still includes every reply returned. ## Questions ## Frequently asked questions ### How can I view Twitter replies without an account? Paste a public X or Twitter post URL into the viewer. No X login is required. ### Does the viewer include nested replies? Yes, when they are publicly available. Replies to other replies stay connected to the post they answered. ### Can I export Twitter replies as Markdown? Yes. Copy the complete available conversation or download it as a Markdown file. ### Can I download the reply data as JSON? Yes. The JSON export keeps structured post, author, engagement, media, parent, and depth fields. ### Why does the reply count differ from X? X can count deleted, hidden, protected, withheld, or otherwise unavailable replies. The viewer only reports public replies it could retrieve. ### Can I paste the URL of a reply? Yes. The pasted reply becomes the starting post and the viewer follows the public conversation beneath it. ### Does it work with twitter.com and x.com links? Yes. The viewer accepts x.com, twitter.com, and mobile.twitter.com post links. It also accepts supported mirror links and a numerical post ID on its own. ### How is this different from the Twitter thread reader? The thread reader keeps the source author's sequence. The reply viewer follows the wider public conversation, including replies from other accounts and replies to those replies. ### Is the Twitter reply viewer free? Yes. Server-backed tools share five free uses each day. You can view and export available public replies without signing up or logging in to X. ## Related tools [ ### Twitter thread reader Paste any post from an X thread to read the author’s posts in order on one page, then copy or download it as Markdown, text, or JSON. ](https://keep.md/tools/x-thread-unroller)[ ### Twitter search without an account Search public X posts without logging in.
