X archive guide

Export All Your Twitter Threads to Markdown

Get every thread you ever posted as Markdown in one go from your X archive, with threads stitched in order and t.co links expanded.

Direct answer

To save one thread, paste it into the Twitter/X Thread to Markdown tool. To save all of them, use your X archive. Upload the archive .zip to the X Archive to Markdown tool. It finds every chain of your own replies to yourself and writes each chain as one Markdown file, in posting order, with the real links in place of t.co links.

Open the X archive converter

When to use this

  • You want every thread you wrote, not just one.
  • You want to keep your threads if you leave X.
  • You want threads as files you can search, edit, or feed to other tools.

Steps

  1. Request your archive. As of September 2026, go to Settings and privacy, then Your account, then Your X data. Confirm with the code X sends you, then click Request data.
  2. When X says the archive is ready, download the .zip. Open the X Archive to Markdown tool and drop the zip in. Don't unzip it first.
  3. Pick One file per post. Threads come out as one file each, with type: thread in the frontmatter.
  4. Or pick Blog drafts to get only threads and long posts.
  5. Download the zip and search for type: thread to list every thread.

Example

Before
tweets.js: post 1001
tweets.js: post 1002, in_reply_to_status_id 1001 (you)
tweets-part1.js: post 1003, in_reply_to_status_id 1002 (you)
After
posts/2024/2024-01-01-1001.md

type: thread

Part one

Part two

Part three

Common mistakes

  • A big archive can split posts across tweets.js, tweets-part1.js and so on. The tool reads every part, so threads that span two files still join up.
  • If you deleted a post in the middle of a thread, the chain breaks there. The rest of the thread comes out as a separate file.
  • Reposts are cut short in the archive itself, so their text can end mid-sentence. They're off by default.

FAQ

How does the tool know a post is part of a thread?
Each reply in the archive names the post it replies to and that post's author. When you reply to your own post, the tool adds the reply to that post's thread.
What happens to replies to other people?
They're left out by default. Turn on Replies to other people to include them. Each one gets a Replying to line that links to the post you answered.
Are @mentions and #hashtags kept?
Yes. They become Markdown links to the profile or hashtag page on x.com.
