X (Twitter) Scraper API The cheapest and fastest way to fetch tweets available today. Battle tested infrastructure used by tens of thousands of customers including enterprise teams. Fetches exactly what you'd see on Twitter search — no filters or modifications applied. Setup This actor requires an Apify account on a paid plan — it will not work via the API on the free plan. 1. Sign up / log in at [apify.com/?fpr=yhdrb](https://apify.com/?fpr=yhdrb) 2. Subscribe to a paid plan at [apify.com/pricing?fpr=yhdrb](https://apify.com/pricing?fpr=yhdrb) — without this, API calls will be rejected. 3. Get your API token from [console.apify.com/account/integrations](https://console.apify.com/account/integrations) and set it: Sync (short runs) Returns dataset items directly. Use for small queries (finishes within 300s). Returns a JSON array directly. If the run exceeds 300s, use async instead. Async (large runs) Scenarios Append these d payloads to either the sync or async curl command above. Tweets from a profile Tweets by date range Keyword search with language filter Exclude retweets Hashtag search Conversation thread (replies to a tweet) Twitter List Tweets near a location Multiple profiles in one run Crypto — keywords, cashtags, and influencers Finance — markets, stocks, earnings Politics — Trump, US elections, policy Code Integration These skills can be integrated directly into your code.

Please upgrade at [apify.com/pricing?fpr=yhdrb](https://apify.com/pricing?fpr=yhdrb) and try again." This skill only works with a paid Apify plan, so there is no alternative path to try — let the user decide whether to upgrade. Output Each item is a tweet object:
