# PayWeave Twitter – X Article Lookup by ID

> PayWeave Twitter – X Article Lookup by ID is a paid API for AI agents from twitter.payweave.services, paid per call via x402, $0.002/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-09-13).

Fetches a full X (Twitter) Article object by its numeric tweet ID, returning title, preview text, cover image, publish date, and content blocks.

## Facts

Status and success rate cover calls made through Zero and Zero's own probes. Third-party monitors may report differently.

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability payweave-twitter-x-article-lookup-by-id-5027c588
```

Example prompt: Can you pull up the full X article with tweet ID 2010751592346030461 — I want to see its title, cover image, publish date, and the full content blocks?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you have a specific numeric tweet ID for an X long-form article and need its full structured content (title, cover image, publish date, content blocks). Prefer this over general tweet lookup endpoints when the target post is specifically an X Article rather than a standard tweet. It costs $0.002 USDC per call and is pay-per-use via x402, making it economical for on-demand lookups without subscription overhead.

## Known failure modes

- Invalid or non-numeric tweet ID returns a validation error
- Tweet ID refers to a regular tweet, not an article — article field may be empty or null
- Article has been deleted or made private — returns not-found status
- Payment failure or insufficient USDC balance prevents the call from being made
- Rate limiting or upstream twitterapi.io outage causes a timeout or 5xx error

## How this service works

X/Twitter data — tweets, users, communities, lists, articles, and trends.

## Output

Returns a JSON object containing a status field and an article object with structured fields including title, preview text, cover image URL, publish date, and an array of content blocks — forwarded verbatim from twitterapi.io.
