FAQPage Schema
How do I retrieve X/Twitter long-form article content in JSON format?▼

Retrieve X/Twitter long-form articles in JSON by executing `xurl read <article_id>`; if that fails, the Skill automatically falls back to GetXAPI to fetch the full metadata and content blocks.

Do I need an API key to access full Twitter article bodies bypassing authentication walls?▼

Yes, accessing full Twitter article bodies requires a GetXAPI key configured in your environment to bypass authentication walls when the primary xurl metadata-only retrieval method fails.

How does the fallback strategy work for fetching X article JSON data?▼

The fallback strategy first attempts metadata-only retrieval using xurl, then automatically switches to GetXAPI to fetch full X article content if the initial xurl request fails.

Can I convert retrieved X article JSON content into Markdown for documentation?▼

Yes, you can convert retrieved X article JSON content into Markdown; the Skill processes JSON data blocks from GetXAPI output to generate a structured Markdown article.

What should I do if xurl cannot retrieve Twitter article bodies?▼

If xurl cannot retrieve Twitter article bodies, the Skill automatically utilizes GetXAPI as a fallback to access the full content and output the structured JSON data.

Why use a multi-tiered retrieval approach for X article content?▼

A multi-tiered retrieval approach ensures robust access to X article content by attempting lightweight metadata retrieval first, only utilizing API quotas when the initial fetch fails.
