How to Search Tweets by Date on X (Twitter)

To search tweets by date on X, type your keyword followed by since:YYYY-MM-DD and until:YYYY-MM-DD into the search bar, then open the Latest tab. For example, coffee since:2024-03-01 until:2024-04-01 returns posts about coffee from March 2024. since: includes its date and until: excludes it.

Date search works for any post since X launched in 2006, and it combines with every other filter in the Twitter advanced search operators reference. This guide covers the search bar, the Advanced search form, and every kind of date window: one day, a range, a month, a year, before a date and after a date.

How Do You Find Tweets From a Specific Date?

To find tweets from one specific date, set since: to that date and until: to the following day. Because until: excludes its own date, the pair covers exactly one day (twitter-advanced-search reference).

"election results" since:2024-11-05 until:2024-11-06

This returns posts from 5 November 2024 only. For a window shorter than a day, add a time in UTC: since:2024-11-05_18:00:00_UTC until:2024-11-05_23:59:59_UTC.

How Do You Search Tweets Between Two Dates?

To search tweets between two dates, put the first date after since: and the day after the last date after until:. For posts from 10 to 20 January 2026, write:

keyword since:2026-01-10 until:2026-01-21

The range can be as long as you like, but very wide ranges on busy topics can return incomplete results. Split long ranges into months when you need completeness.

How Do You Search Tweets by Month?

To search tweets by month, set since: to the first day of the month and until: to the first day of the next month. The month of February 2025 is:

keyword since:2025-02-01 until:2025-03-01

This avoids counting how many days a month has, including leap years.

How Do You Search Tweets by Year?

To search tweets by year, set since: to 1 January of that year and until: to 1 January of the next year. All of 2020 is:

keyword since:2020-01-01 until:2021-01-01

A whole year of a popular keyword is a large result set. Add an account with from: or an engagement floor with min_faves: to keep it readable.

How Do You Search Tweets Before a Date?

To search tweets before a date, use until: alone; it returns posts published before that date, not on it. Posts about a product before its launch on 15 March 2025:

"product name" until:2025-03-15

How Do You Search Tweets After a Date?

Why Does Twitter Date Search Show No Results?

Twitter date search shows no results when the date format is wrong, the window ends before it starts, or the posts came from private, suspended or deleted accounts. Private and suspended accounts are not included in the search index (twitter-advanced-search reference). Listed below are the 4 fixes.

1. Rewrite the dates as YYYY-MM-DD.
2. Check that since: is earlier than until:.
3. Widen the window by a few days on both sides, then narrow it.
4. Switch between the Top and Latest tabs.

Posts that should exist but never appear are covered in how to find old tweets on X and why X search can’t find an old tweet.

How to Collect Tweets by Date With apidojo

X search shows posts on screen but has no export, so apidojo’s Tweet Scraper V2 on Apify runs the same date query and returns every post as JSON, CSV or Excel. You paste your date query into the searchTerms input exactly as you typed it on X.

{
  "searchTerms": [
    "from:NASA since:2024-01-01 until:2024-06-01",
    "from:NASA since:2024-06-01 until:2024-12-01"
  ],
  "sort": "Latest"
}
