# TwitterAPI.io skill v3.3.0

Access Twitter/X data and perform actions via [TwitterAPI.io](https://twitterapi.io) REST API.
Two API generations: **v1 (deprecated)** and **v2 (current, recommended)**.

Docs: https://docs.twitterapi.io | Dashboard: https://twitterapi.io/dashboard

---

## Setup

1. Get API key: https://twitterapi.io/dashboard ($0.10 free credits, no CC)
2. Store the key in a `.env` file or your shell's secure config (do not use raw `export` with the actual key in the terminal -- it gets saved to shell history).
3. For write actions, you also need `login_cookies` from v2 login + residential `proxy`.

Base URL: `https://api.twitterapi.io`
Auth header: `X-API-Key: $TWITTERAPI_IO_KEY` (all requests)

---

## QPS (rate limits) -- balance-based

| Account Balance (Credits) | QPS Limit |
|---------------------------|-----------|
| < 1,000 (free tier) | 1 req / 5 sec |
| >= 1,000 | 3 |
| >= 5,000 | 6 |
| >= 10,000 | 10 |
| >= 50,000 | 20 |

## V1 vs V2 endpoints

| Feature | V1 (deprecated) | V2 (current) |
|---------|-----------------|--------------|
| Login | `/twitter/login_by_email_or_username` + `/twitter/login_by_2fa` | `/twitter/user_login_v2` |
| Tweet | `/twitter/create_tweet` | `/twitter/create_tweet_v2` |
| Like | `/twitter/like_tweet` | `/twitter/like_tweet_v2` |
| Retweet | `/twitter/retweet_tweet` | `/twitter/retweet_tweet_v2` |
| Upload | `/twitter/upload_image` | `/twitter/upload_media_v2` |
| Auth param | `auth_session` | `login_cookies` |
| Pricing | $0.001/call | $0.002-0.003/call |

**V1 cookies do NOT work with v2 endpoints and vice versa. Always use v2.**

### login_cookie vs login_cookies -- API Inconsistency

The API has an inconsistency in naming:
- `user_login_v2` **response** returns the field as `login_cookie` (singular)
- All v2 **action** endpoints expect the field as `login_cookies` (plural)

**Always use `login_cookies` (plural) in request bodies.** The value is the same string.

## X/Twitter platform degradation notice (March 2026)

**CRITICAL**: Around March 5, 2026, Twitter/X disabled or degraded several advanced search features due to high platform usage. This affects ALL Twitter API providers (not just TwitterAPI.io) because TwitterAPI.io proxies Twitter's own search infrastructure.

### What's broken

| Feature | Status | Impact |
|---------|--------|--------|
| `since:DATE` / `until:DATE` in search | **DEGRADED** | Returns incomplete results (often only 7-20 tweets per query regardless of actual volume) |
| Search pagination | **BROKEN** | Cursor-based pagination returns the SAME page of results repeatedly instead of advancing |
| `since_time:UNIX` / `until_time:UNIX` | **WORKS** | Alternative date format using Unix timestamps -- returns correct date range |
| `within_time:Nh` | **WORKS** | Relative time filter (e.g., `within_time:72h`) |
| `get_user_last_tweets` pagination | **WORKS** | User timeline cursor pagination is unaffected |
| `get_user_mentions` sinceTime/untilTime | **WORKS** | Server-side Unix timestamp parameters (not search operators) |
| Webhook filter rules | **WORKS** | Real-time collection unaffected (but webhook URL may be lost during API key rotation) |

### Workarounds for date-range queries

**Instead of** (broken):
```
$BTC since:2026-03-06_00:00:00_UTC until:2026-03-07_00:00:00_UTC
```

**Use** (working):
```
$BTC since_time:1741219200 until_time:1741305600
```

Convert dates to Unix timestamps: `date -d "2026-03-06T00:00:00Z" +%s` or use Python: `int(datetime(2026,3,6,tzinfo=timezone.utc).timestamp())`

**Pagination workaround**: Since pagination is broken, use **hourly time windows** instead of paginating through a large result set. Each 1-hour window returns a unique set of ~7-16 tweets (page 1 only). This gives ~250 unique tweets per coin per day across 24 windows.

**For user timelines**: Use `GET /twitter/user/last_tweets` with cursor pagination (works normally). Paginate backwards through the user's timeline, then client-side filter by `createdAt` date. This completely bypasses search operators.

### Webhook URL gotcha

When a TwitterAPI.io API key is rotated (e.g., after account data reset), the webhook filter rules may be restored but the **webhook URL is NOT automatically restored**. You must manually re-set the webhook URL in the dashboard at https://twitterapi.io/tweet-filter-rules after any key rotation event.

**Monitoring tip**: Check that `collection_type='webhook'` tweets are still arriving. If rules are active but zero webhook tweets arrive for 30+ minutes, verify the webhook URL is configured.

## Twitter search syntax (for `query` param in advanced_search)

| Operator | Example | Description | Status (Mar 2026) |
|----------|---------|-------------|-------------------|
| `from:` | `from:elonmusk` | Tweets by user | Working |
| `to:` | `to:elonmusk` | Replies to user | Working |
| `"..."` | `"exact phrase"` | Exact match | Working |
| `OR` | `cat OR dog` | Either term | Working |
| `-` | `-spam` | Exclude term | Working |
| `since:` / `until:` | `since:2026-01-01_00:00:00_UTC` | Date range (UTC) | **DEGRADED** -- use `since_time:` instead |
| `since_time:` / `until_time:` | `since_time:1741219200` | Date range (Unix timestamp) | **Working** |
| `within_time:` | `within_time:24h` | Relative time window | **Working** |
| `min_faves:` | `min_faves:100` | Min likes | Working |
| `min_retweets:` | `min_retweets:50` | Min RTs | Working |
| `filter:media` | `filter:media` | Has media | Working |
| `filter:links` | `filter:links` | Has links | Working |
| `lang:` | `lang:en` | Language | Working |
| `is:reply` | `is:reply` | Only replies | Working |
| `-is:retweet` | `-is:retweet` | Exclude RTs | Working |

## Pagination

Most list endpoints return:
```json
{ "has_next_page": true, "next_cursor": "cursor_string..." }
```
Pass `cursor=NEXT_CURSOR` to get next page. First page: omit cursor or `cursor=""`.

**Known issues (March 2026)**:
- `advanced_search` pagination is **broken** -- returns the same results on every page. Use hourly time windows (1 page per window) instead of deep pagination.
- `get_user_last_tweets` pagination **works normally** -- cursor advances through the user's timeline chronologically.
- `has_next_page` may return `true` even when no more data exists (Twitter API limitation). If a subsequent request returns empty or identical results, stop paginating.

## Error handling

```json
{ "status": "error", "msg": "Error message" }
```

| Error | Cause | Fix |
|-------|-------|-----|
| Invalid API key | Wrong or missing `X-API-Key` header | Check key in dashboard |
| Invalid login_cookie | Expired or faulty cookie | Re-login via `user_login_v2` with valid `totp_secret` |
| 400 on v2 actions | Faulty cookie from login without proper `totp_secret` | Re-login with 16-char string `totp_secret` |
| Proxy error | Bad proxy format or dead proxy | Format: `http://user:pass@host:port`, use residential |
| Rate limited | Exceeded QPS for your balance tier | Back off, add balance for higher QPS |
| Account suspended | Twitter account banned | Use different account |
| 404 on endpoint | Wrong path or v1 endpoint removed | Check correct path in this doc |

## Common workflows

### Get user ID from username (needed for follow, DM, mentions)
1. `GET /twitter/user/info?userName=TARGET` -> extract `data.id`
2. Use that numeric ID in follow/DM/mentions calls

### Post tweet with image
1. Upload: `POST /twitter/upload_media_v2` -> get `media_id`
2. Tweet: `POST /twitter/create_tweet_v2` with `media_ids: ["media_id"]`

### Reply to a tweet
`POST /twitter/create_tweet_v2` with `tweet_text` + `reply_to_tweet_id`

### Quote tweet
`POST /twitter/create_tweet_v2` with `tweet_text` + `attachment_url` (full tweet URL)

### Post to community
`POST /twitter/create_tweet_v2` with `tweet_text` + `community_id`

### Monitor accounts for new tweets (cheapest method)
Use Stream endpoints instead of polling `/twitter/user/last_tweets`:
1. `POST /oapi/x_user_stream/add_user_to_monitor_tweet` for each account
2. Set up webhook to receive notifications

Also available: `twitterapi-docs` MCP server for querying this documentation programmatically.

## Important notes

- **Read endpoints** need only API key. No Twitter account needed.
- **Write endpoints** need `login_cookies` from v2 login + residential proxy.
- **V2 cookies only work with v2 endpoints** (`_v2` suffix).
- **2FA strongly recommended** -- use 16-character string `totp_secret` for reliable login.
- **Proxy mandatory** for all write actions. Use high-quality residential proxies.
- **Credits never expire** once recharged. Bonus credits valid 30 days.
