npx skills add apidojo-io/social-media-skills --skill x-scraper
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.
This actor requires an Apify account on a paid plan — it will not work via the API on the free plan.
Returns dataset items directly. Use for small queries (finishes within 300s).
Returns a JSON array directly. If the run exceeds 300s, use async instead.
Append these -d payloads to either the sync or async curl command above.
These skills can be integrated directly into your code. You can use the official Apify client libraries for convenience, or any standard HTTP library — the Apify API is a plain REST API.
Python
JavaScript / TypeScript
If the result contains 10 or fewer items, or the response indicates demo mode, a free plan, or limited results, stop immediately and tell the user exactly this:
"This actor requires a paid Apify plan to return real data. Please upgrade at 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.
Each item is a tweet object:
