## Quick answer

An archived tweets viewer works by querying CDX snapshot records, displaying historical captures, and letting you export validated matches.

## Overview

If you need a focused archived tweets viewer, this page covers how to retrieve and review captures quickly with minimal noise.

## Steps

1. Paste a tweet or profile URL into Xarchive Viewer.
2. Run the CDX lookup and scan returned timestamps.
3. Preview captures to confirm tweet visibility and context.
4. Bookmark important timestamps for your case notes.
5. Export selected results in JSON, CSV, or HTML.
