Frequently asked questions
Can it search X by keyword?
No. X disabled search for logged-out users. Because the actor uses public, no-login access only, keyword search is not available. The Search mode exists in the input for clarity but returns an explicit `SEARCH_NOT_AVAILABLE` error rather than empty or fabricated results. To collect posts about a topic, pull the timelines of the relevant accounts via **User Tweets**.
Do I need to log in or supply a token?
No. It uses the same public, logged-out access the website gives visitors who aren't signed in to view profiles and timelines. It only ever sees public data.
Why does it use a residential proxy?
A residential US proxy is enabled by default so runs work reliably with no setup on your part. Residential traffic is metered per GB.
What happens for a deleted, suspended or protected account/tweet?
You still get a record with the `error` field explaining it's unavailable, so a gap is a usable signal rather than a silent miss.
Which engagement numbers are included?
Likes, retweets, replies, quotes, bookmarks and views all come straight from X. Any metric X doesn't expose for a given tweet is left `null`.
Does it capture full text for long posts and quoted tweets?
Yes. For posts over 280 characters the actor reads X's longform note-tweet body, so `text` and `noteTweet` carry the complete untruncated content. When a post quotes another tweet, the quoted post is included as `quotedTweet` with its `id`, `text` and `author`.
