Followers you know

Parameters

• cookiebody · string · required

  Cookie header of your own logged-in X session: auth_token=...; ct0=... (guest_id is used when present). How to copy it: /docs/x-session.

• proxybody · string · required

  Your proxy, format http://user:pass@host:port. The requests to X go out through it. Used only for this request.

• user_idbody · string · optional

  Numeric ID of the account to check. Either user_id or username is required; user_id is used when both are set.

• usernamebody · string · optional

  Handle, with or without @, used when user_id is not set. The API looks up the ID first; still one billed call.

• countbody · integer · optional · default 20

  Accounts per page, 1 to 100 (more is capped at 100). X treats it as a hint.

• cursorbody · string · optional

  Bottom cursor from the previous page. Leave it out for the first page.

Body parameters are sent as a JSON object with Content-Type: application/json.

Paginated: pass the bottom cursor of one page as cursor to get the next. Each page is one billed call. See Pagination.

Notes

• No simple format: with format=simple the answer is the usual {status_code, response} wrapper.
• The cookie and proxy fields: Your X session (cookie).

Example request

curl -X POST 'https://api.twittrapi.com/client/followers-you-know' \
  --header 'X-API-KEY: YOUR_API_KEY' \
  --header 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  --data '{"cookie":"auth_token=...; ct0=...","proxy":"http://user:pass@host:port","username":"XDevelopers","count":20}'

import httpx

resp = httpx.post(
    "https://api.twittrapi.com/client/followers-you-know",
    headers={"X-API-KEY": "YOUR_API_KEY"},
    json={
        "cookie": "auth_token=...; ct0=...",
        "proxy": "http://user:pass@host:port",
        "username": "XDevelopers",
        "count": 20,
    },
    timeout=60,
)
print(resp.status_code, resp.json())

const resp = await fetch("https://api.twittrapi.com/client/followers-you-know", {
  method: "POST",
  headers: { "X-API-KEY": process.env.TWITTRAPI_API_KEY, "Content-Type": "application/json" },
  body: JSON.stringify({
    cookie: "auth_token=...; ct0=...",
    proxy: "http://user:pass@host:port",
    username: "XDevelopers",
    count: 20,
  }),
});
console.log(resp.status, await resp.json());

Base URL https://api.twittrapi.com, key in the X-API-KEY header. The SDKs do not wrap account actions, so the examples are plain HTTP calls.

Response

Wrapper built by the API: {"status_code": <X status>, "response": "<X response body as a string>"}. The HTTP status is X's status when X answered 4xx or 5xx, otherwise 200. Parse response a second time to get X's JSON. On success response is X's FollowersYouKnow timeline with the users and a bottom cursor.

In the raw format, field names and nesting come from X and can change without notice. See Response format.

Errors

• 400The body is not valid JSON.
• 422A required field is missing (including proxy), an ID is not numeric, or the cookie has no ct0. Also: the account is suspended, X rejected the session, or the text was already posted.
• 407The proxy is unreachable or timed out.
• 400username is set but no such user exists ("This user could not be found."). Refunded.
• 422Neither user_id nor username is set, user_id is not numeric, or the username lookup failed.
• X'sAny status X answers with (for example 401, 403, 404): passed through with X's body.

Errors every endpoint can return (401, 402, 403, 404, 408, 409, 429, 5xx), and which of them are charged, are on the Errors page. Calls that fail with 400, 408, 409 or a 5xx error are refunded.
