# How to use your Twitter archive data

The simplest way to use your Twitter archive data is through the archive browser interface provided in this file. Just double-click index.html from the root folder and you can browse your entire history of Tweets from inside your browser.

In the `data` folder, your Twitter archive is present in two formats: JSON and CSV exports by month and year.

* CSV is a generic format that can be imported into many data tools, spreadsheet applications, or consumed simply using a programming language.

## JSON for Developers

* The JSON export contains a full representation of your Tweets as returned by v1.1 of the Twitter API. See https://dev.twitter.com/docs/api/1.1 for more information. * The JSON export is also used to power the archive browser interface (index.html). * To consume the export in a generic JSON parser in any language, strip the first and last lines of each file.

To provide feedback, ask questions, or share ideas with other Twitter developers, join the discussion forums on https://dev.twitter.com.

Select that index.html file is fairly easy.

You also scan your archived tweets by date or even search them: Here is a sample screen shot.

If anybody doesn’t see this feature yet, Twitter says to hang in there. It’s pushing our slowly, beginning first with a small percentage of users who have their language set to English. Twitter promised to go worldwide “the coming weeks and months.” My Pakistani reader also sent me email about this feature because he doesn’t see this feature in their twitter account.
