How to export X (Twitter) replies to CSV or Excel

Allow CommentCrate on X once, scan the post, and save the replies under it as a spreadsheet. X support is new, so check your first file.

1. Allow it on X (once)

X support is optional. Open a post on x.com (twitter.com addresses work too), click the CommentCrate icon and press Allow on this site. Chrome asks for your permission, and you can take it back at any time. X shows replies only to people who are logged in, so log in first.

2. Scan the post

  1. Open the post itself (the address contains /status/) and keep the tab in front.
  2. Click the CommentCrate icon and press Scan comments. The extension scrolls the replies and presses “Show more replies” for you.
  3. Press CSV or XLSX. JSON and PDF are part of Pro.

What the file contains

One row per reply: id, handle (saved as @name), the text, likes, the exact time of the reply, and the post address. Because X gives the exact time, a giveaway date range works on these comments.

Check your first file

  • This is the newest platform in CommentCrate. It has been tested on sample pages, not yet on many real posts, so open the first file and make sure the rows are the replies you expect.
  • X may list suggested posts below the replies. If rows that do not belong show up, delete them in your spreadsheet. If you want us to look at the problem, use the report button in the panel; it shows you what it would send before anything is sent.
  • X limits automated collection in its terms and can ask you to log in again or slow you down. You use CommentCrate at your own risk.
  • The free plan exports up to 200 comments.
