Open the application, a prototype written in Python with the Streamlit framework and hosted on Streamlit Cloud.

from waybacktweets import WaybackTweets, TweetsParser, TweetsExporter

USERNAME = "jack"

api = WaybackTweets(USERNAME)
archived_tweets = api.get()

if archived_tweets:
    field_options = [
        "archived_timestamp",
        "original_tweet_url",
        "archived_tweet_url",
        "archived_statuscode",
    ]

    parser = TweetsParser(archived_tweets, USERNAME, field_options)
    parsed_tweets = parser.parse()

    exporter = TweetsExporter(parsed_tweets, USERNAME, field_options)
    exporter.save_to_csv()
