Extract and structure X Post Comments with Airtop Browser Automation

Extracting Comments from an X Post

Use Case Engaging with conversations on X (formerly Twitter) is critical for brands and individuals monitoring sentiment, leads, or emerging trends. Manually collecting comments is time-consuming—this automation enables scalable extraction of comment data to inform your outreach or analysis.

What This Automation Does This automation extracts comments from a specified X post, with the following input parameters:

- airtopprofile: The name of your [Airtop Profile](https://portal.airtop.ai/browser-profiles) connected to X. - xposturl: The URL of the X post to extract comments from. - maxnumberofcomments: The maximum number of comments to retrieve.

How It Works 1. Takes input via a form or another workflow. 2. Normalizes the input values. 3. Creates a new browser session using Airtop. 4. Navigates to the provided X post. 5. Uses a prompt to extract up to the specified number of comments, returning: - Author name - Author profile URL - Comment text

Setup Requirements 1. [Airtop API Key](https://portal.airtop.ai/api-keys) — free to generate. 2. An [Airtop Profile](https://portal.airtop.ai/browser-profiles) connected to X (requires one-time login).
