x-profile

Q: How do I get X data through an API?

Call POST /recipes/x-profile with your key and username. You get rows with the 12 fields above. The recipe is tested against the live site every 6 hours.

Q: Can I try it without paying?

Yes. Sign up with Google, GitHub or email for a free key with 1,000 credits every month. No credit card.

Q: What if the site changes?

The health check runs every 6 hours against the live site. A failing recipe shows as failing on this page until we fix it.

One X (Twitter) account as one row: username, name, bio, followers, following, tweet count, join date, location, website, verified badge, profile image and user id. username is the handle (nasa or @nasa) or the profile URL. session is your own X login (the auth_token and ct0 cookies, from the Crawl4AI Session extension), optional, used for this run only and never stored. Without it the run reads X as a visitor; when X gives nothing, a slower second source answers.
