Response

Returns one x_community. This is the demo’s answer, the one the playground above returns, in full rather than abbreviated — including the fields that come back null, because a field is null when the platform does not show it and you should know which ones those are before you build on them. A call with your key returns the account you ask for.

What it costs

3 credits per successful call, whether we fetch it or serve it from cache — you pay for the answer, not for how we produced it. Responses are cached for 1 day and a cached one tells you when the data was actually fetched. A call we fail costs 0 and is refunded automatically.

On the smallest pack that is $2.34 per 1,000 calls; on the largest, $1.32. The full table.

Questions

How much does the X (Twitter) community API cost?

3 credits a call: $2.34 per 1,000 calls on the smallest pack and $1.32 on the largest. A call that fails costs nothing, and the refund is automatic. A cached answer costs the same as a fresh one. Credits are bought in packs and never expire; there is no subscription.

Do I need a X account, a login or cookies?

No. You need a key from us and nothing from X. We never take a customer's login, cookies or session, at any price, and no account of yours is ever at risk.

Can I try it without signing up?

Yes. Add demo=true and leave the key out, or press Send request in the playground on this page. The demo answers with a real answer about an X community on building an audience, captured once a week, in exactly the shape a live call returns, whatever you ask, and charges nothing.

How fresh is the data?

An answer is kept for up to 1 day, and a cached one says when it was fetched, in meta.fetched_at. Add fresh=true to fetch it again now, at the same price; it needs any purchase, not the trial.

What does it return?

One x_community object. Its fields are named after X's API v2. A field is null when X does not show it, never missing. Every field is described on this page.

Can an AI agent call it?

Yes: it is the MCP tool get_x_community on our MCP server, with the same parameters, answer and price. Without a key, the tool answers from the demo.
