X data APIs

X is the platform formerly known as Twitter. Start with a public conversation, then follow the evidence through posts, threads, and accounts. Each API keeps its own search, pagination, and result semantics.

Choose an X API by research task

Start with the question you need to answer, then open an Endpoint for its parameters, static example, execution price, and current status. X and Twitter refer to the same platform on this page.

Track public conversations

Discover public posts by keyword or X search operators and build a traceable conversation sample.

Reconstruct one conversation and its spread

Start from a known post, then inspect its content, replies, quotes, and thread context.

Research accounts and audiences

Find public accounts, read profiles and posting histories, and inspect public follower relationships.

What to know before using X data

  • Only currently public content and accounts are in scope; private, deleted, and signed-in data are not.
  • Search, order, and pagination reflect observable results at request time and do not promise exhaustive recall or stable ranking.
  • Public engagement metrics describe observed activity, not recommendation logic, audience intent, or causality.

Connect one X data workflow

  1. Choose a clear starting point: a keyword search, known post ID, or known account.
  2. Open the Endpoint page and verify its request fields, static response, billing rule, and current status.
  3. Validate the result in Playground, then create an API key scoped only to the API you need.
  4. Reuse the same Listing Contract through REST, an SDK, or Exact MCP, and reconcile the request in Usage.

X API questions

Should I use post search or post detail?

Use search when you need to discover a conversation. Use detail when you already have a public post ID and need one stable record.

Can public metrics explain the recommendation algorithm?

No. The APIs expose public content, relationships, and engagement facts without turning them into private-ranking or causal claims.

What happens while an API is paused?

Its Endpoint page keeps the Contract and reference price visible, but new executions stop before the upstream request and are not charged.
