Path parameters

Name	Type	Description
`id` Required	string	Tweet ID of the Tweet to request Retweeting users of.

Query parameters

Name	Type	Description
`expansions` Optional	enum (`pinned_tweet_id`)	Expansions enable you to request additional data objects that relate to the originally returned users. The ID that represents the expanded data object will be included directly in the user data object, but the expanded object metadata will be returned within the `includes` response object, and will also include the ID so that you can match this data object to the original Tweet object. At this time, the only expansion available to endpoints that primarily return user objects is `expansions=pinned_tweet_id`. You will find the expanded Tweet data object living in the `includes` response object.
`max_results` Optional	integer	The maximum number of results to be returned per page. This can be a number between 1 and 100. By default, each page will return 100 results.
`pagination_token` Optional	string	Used to request the next page of results if all results weren't returned with the latest request, or to go back to the previous page of results. To return the next page, pass the `next_token` returned in your previous response. To go back one page, pass the `previous_token` returned in your previous response.
`tweet.fields` Optional	enum (`attachments`, `author_id`, `context_annotations`, `conversation_id`, `created_at`, `edit_controls`, `entities`, `geo`, `id`, `in_reply_to_user_id`, `lang`, `non_public_metrics`, `public_metrics`, `organic_metrics`, `promoted_metrics`, `possibly_sensitive`, `referenced_tweets`, `reply_settings`, `source`, `text`, `withheld`)	This fields parameter enables you to select which specific Tweet fields will deliver in each returned pinned Tweet. Specify the desired fields in a comma-separated list without spaces between commas and fields. The Tweet fields will only return if the user has a pinned Tweet and if you've also included the `expansions=pinned_tweet_id` query parameter in your request. While the referenced Tweet ID will be located in the original Tweet object, you will find this ID and all additional Tweet fields in the `includes` data object.
`user.fields` Optional	enum (`created_at`, `description`, `entities`, `id`, `location`, `most_recent_tweet_id`, `name`, `pinned_tweet_id`, `profile_image_url`, `protected`, `public_metrics`, `url`, `username`, `verified`, `verified_type`, `withheld`)	This fields parameter enables you to select which specific user fields will deliver with each returned users objects. Specify the desired fields in a comma-separated list without spaces between commas and fields. These specified user fields will display directly in the user data objects.
