Input Schema
| Name | Required | Description | Default |
|---|---|---|---|
| count | No | Requested page size, capped at 200. Advisory only for this endpoint: X's own search backend typically returns around 13 to 20 tweets per page regardless of the value requested here, an upstream limit, not something this API controls. To retrieve more results, page with the cursor from the previous response rather than raising this value. | |
| cursor | No | Opaque pagination cursor from a previous response's next_cursor field. Omit on the first call; pass on subsequent calls to fetch the next page. | |
| user_id | No | Numeric Twitter/X user id (e.g. "44196397"). Provide exactly one of username or user_id. | |
| username | No | Twitter/X handle WITHOUT the leading @ (e.g. "elonmusk", "openai"). Provide exactly one of username or user_id. |
