X / Twitter User Replies API

Get an X (Twitter) account's tweets and replies — the Replies tab — with full text, engagement counts, and media. JSON, $0.01 per call.

POST/v1/twitter/user-replies

$0.01/call

Returns the Replies tab of an X profile: the account's tweets plus the replies it has posted, newest first. in_reply_to_tweet_id and in_reply_to_username show what each reply answers. For original tweets only, use the Tweet Scraper API.

    'x-api-key': 'YOUR_API_KEY',

  body: JSON.stringify({"username": "NASA", "count": 20}),
});
const { data } = await res.json();
console.log(data);

Pagination

Each response includes a cursor. Send the same request again with that value in cursor to get the next page; cursor is null when there is nothing more (or the page came back empty). count is a page-size hint — X may return a few more or fewer items than you ask for. Every page is a separate $0.01 call.

Caching

Responses are cached for 10 minutes.

Errors

`400`	`VALIDATION_ERROR`	Neither `username` nor `user_id` was sent, or one is malformed
`404`	`NOT_FOUND`	User not found or suspended
`429`	`RATE_LIMITED_UPSTREAM`	Too many requests in a short burst — retry after a few seconds
`502` / `503`	`UPSTREAM_ERROR` / `SERVICE_UNAVAILABLE`	Temporary problem fetching data from X — retry later

Failed calls are not charged.

A protected account, or one with nothing to show, returns 200 with an empty tweets list.
