I am currently looking at the Twitter API documentation but I cannot find the exact keyword for the approach from which I am trying to get the parent tweet id for a Twitter bot that I am creating.
For example, if I want to automate bookmarking a tweet (eg similar to #SaveToNotion), if I reply to that tweet tagging the bot (eg #SaveToNotion), the bot would be able to get the direct link/id of the "parent tweet" and save it somewhere. I am trying to look at the Conversation API but I don't have access or how to retrieve the conversation Id from a replied tweet

As per twitter documentation
A comma-separated list of user IDs, indicating the users whose Tweets should be delivered on the stream. Following protected users is not supported. For each user specified, the stream will contain:
Tweets created by the user.
Tweets which are retweeted by the user.
Replies to any Tweet created by the user.
Retweets of any Tweet created by the user.
Manual replies, created without pressing a reply button (e.g. “#twitterapi I agree”).
Imagine I am following person X, he/she has millions of follower and whenever he/she tweets something a lot of followers retweet that, as per documentation streaming api will stream all that noise if I am following that id via twitter api. So my question is, is it just bad design or any specific for reason for that.
It's a design choice.
You're looking at a specific method of filtering Tweets (using the follow parameter). If what you want is just the Tweets posted by that user, you could use a different pattern like the from: operator.
I am using the Twitter API in a Swift application, I want to show a particular tweet along with all of its replies, How can I do it?
I saw many old posts that say "there is no way to retrieve the replies of a tweet", Has it changed? is there a way to do that now?

I am trying to verify that via the SurveyMonkey API I can send the response(s) from a survey back into Zendesk data. I want to be able to attach the response(s) from a survey, back to the ticket that send the survey.
Well I do not know about Survey Monkey but I know that you can do it with Examinare Survey API. developer.examinare.com and they also have an developer account that you can use to try.
If you message them by the support email I am sure they can give a better step to step directions but what you basically do is to activate the Zendesk integration and then add the redirect url to an external PHP Script and then take the ContactID, Inforeg (Serialnumber for the survey vote) and then parse it into the custom fields.
I know that Examinare has customers using Zendesk and their solution so try that out.
I've sorted the OAuth Twitter stuff and currently all my application does is grab Tweets and display them on a web page. After the user has given permission for my application to use their account, is there a way to post a Tweet on their behalf i.e. post AS them?
First point of call would be reading here - https://dev.twitter.com/docs/auth/oauth/oauth-echo
What's the REST API call required to undo/remove/destroy/delete a retweet (of another user) from the authenticated user's timeline? There's simply no mention of this in the API documentation on the Twitter website.
Native retweet has all attributes of a simple tweet including a unique ID. So, you can use statuses/destroy method to remove it.
How to get that ID depends on your application. First, it's returned by statuses/retweet method. Second, you can get user's timeline and parse out ID of this tweet.
