Twitter Thread Export

The Twitter Thread Export automation helps founders, marketers, sales managers, and growth hackers extract and organize data from Twitter threads efficiently. With support for Google Sheets and CSV export, this tool simplifies tracking insights from threads and is perfect for analysis, reporting, and collaboration. It also includes scheduling, iteration delay, and flexible execution options.

Follow these steps to configure and run the Twitter Thread Export automation.\

Step 1: Log in to the TexAu App and Locate the Automation

Log in to your TexAu account at v2-prod.texau.com. Navigate to the Automation Store and search for Twitter Thread Export. This automation extracts content, engagement data (e.g., likes, retweets), and other details from Twitter threads for detailed analysis.

Step 2: Connect to Twitter with TexAu

To enable TexAu to access Twitter and extract thread data, connect your account:

1. Click Add Account: Navigate to the Linked Accounts section and select Twitter.
2. Secure Login Options: Use TexAu’s built-in authentication to log in securely and connect your account.

Tip: Ensure your Twitter account is active and authorized to access the threads you wish to export.

Step 3: Select Your Input Source

Define the threads you want to extract using one of the following input source options:

1. Manually Enter a Single Thread URL: If you need to export data for one specific thread, input the URL directly into the provided text field.
2. Google Sheets: For bulk processing, create a Google Sheet listing multiple thread URLs, with each URL in a separate row. Paste the public sheet URL into TexAu.
3. CSV File: Upload a CSV file containing thread URLs in separate rows for automated processing of multiple threads.

Tip: Use Google Sheets or CSV for batch exports to save time and ensure comprehensive data collection.

Step 4: Schedule the Automation (Optional)

Use TexAu’s scheduling feature to extract Twitter thread data at specific intervals:

1. Click Schedule and set the start date and time for the automation.
2. Choose a Recurrence Frequency to define when and how often the automation runs:
   • None: Run the export process immediately.
   • At Regular Intervals: Specify intervals such as every 6 hours or daily.
   • Every Day: Automatically extract data once daily.
   • On Specific Days of the Week: Select specific days like Monday and Thursday.
   • On Specific Dates: Schedule runs for particular calendar dates, like the 1st or 15th.

Scheduling ensures you capture thread data consistently, especially for monitoring live or time-sensitive campaigns.

Step 5: Set an Iteration Delay (Optional)

To simulate natural behavior and ensure smooth operation, configure an Iteration Delay:

1. Set the Minimum Delay and Maximum Delay values to add random intervals between processing each thread URL.
2. Select the time unit, such as seconds, minutes, or hours.

This feature prevents Twitter from flagging bulk actions as suspicious and ensures seamless data extraction.

Step 6: Choose Your Output Mode (Optional)

Define how TexAu saves the exported thread data for analysis and reporting:

1. Export Options:
   • Google Sheets: Save thread data directly to Google Sheets for live collaboration and tracking.
   • CSV File: Export the data to a CSV file for offline access.
2. Output Management:
   • Append: Add new data to an existing file.
   • Split: Save each automation run as a separate file.
   • Overwrite: Replace old files with the latest exported data.
3. Deduplicate: Enable this option to prevent duplicate entries in your data export.

Tip: Exporting to Google Sheets is ideal for collaborative projects where real-time data updates are necessary.

Step 7: Run the Automation on Cloud or Desktop

Once all configurations are complete, you can start the export process:

1. Click the Run button to begin the automation.
2. Choose the execution mode:
   • Cloud: Execute the automation on TexAu’s servers for fast, hands-free operation.
   • Desktop: Run the automation locally on your computer to save cloud runtime costs and use your IP address.

Tip: Use Desktop mode for secure, local execution or when dealing with sensitive data.

Step 8: Access the Data from the Data Store

After the automation completes, review and download the exported data from TexAu’s Data Store:

1. Navigate to the Data Store section in the app.

2. Locate the Twitter Thread Export automation in the list.

3. Click See Data to view or download details like thread content, engagement metrics, and timestamps.

   

The Twitter Thread Export automation simplifies the process of gathering and organizing Twitter thread data, allowing users to analyze engagement, monitor campaigns, and gain insights.
