What can the X Profile Scraper do? {#what-can-the-x-profile-scraper-do}

The X (Twitter) Profile Scraper resolves any public account into a structured record, with zero setup. Use it to:

• 🔒 Detect protected accounts before you waste a run trying to read their posts.
• 📅 Get the join date — a strong authenticity signal when screening accounts.

How to scrape X (Twitter) profiles {#how-to-scrape-x-twitter-profiles}

1. Open the X (Twitter) Profile Scraper on Apify.
2. Add accounts to X (Twitter) usernames — nasa, @OpenAI, https://x.com/spacex all work.
3. (Optional) Set Max profiles to cap the run.
4. Click ▶ Start.
5. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML, or fetch through the API.

No login, no cookies, no proxy setup. Fields stay identical from one profile to hundreds, so code written against a test run keeps working at scale.

}

How much will scraping X profiles cost? {#how-much-will-scraping-x-profiles-cost}

Simple pay-per-result pricing — you pay per profile returned, not for compute time.

• 💸 Pay per profile — budget is just profiles × rate.
• 📉 Volume discounts on Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum, and Diamond Apify plans.
• 🆓 Free to try — new Apify accounts include monthly free usage.
• 🚫 No hidden fees — no proxy add-on, no per-request charge, no minimum.

See the live rate on the Apify store page.

Tips for scraping X profiles {#tips-for-scraping-x-profiles}

• 📅 Screen with createdAt + tweetsCount. A brand-new account with thousands of posts is a red flag.
• 🧮 Compute engagement rate properly. Pull the account's posts with the Tweets Scraper and divide average likes by followers.
• 🔒 Check isProtected first to avoid queueing timeline runs that cannot return anything.
• 🖼️ Use profileImage for directories — it is already the full-resolution version.
• 🔗 website is pre-expanded — no need to resolve t.co links yourself.
• ⏰ Schedule a daily run on a fixed list to build a follower-growth time series.
• 🆔 Store id, not the handle. Handles change; the numeric ID does not.

Use X profile data with AI agents (MCP) {#use-x-profile-data-with-ai-agents-mcp}

The X (Twitter) Profile Scraper is available through the Apify MCP server, so AI assistants can call it as a tool and pull X profile data on demand.

• 🧩 Claude — add the Apify MCP server and let Claude fetch and analyse X profile data.
• 🤖 ChatGPT — use the actor as a tool inside research and reporting workflows.
• 🖊️ Cursor — pull X profile data straight into your coding and prototyping sessions.

No glue code required: ask your agent in plain language and it runs the actor, reads the structured output, and answers.

Common AI-agent recipes:

• 🔎 Account vetting — "is @example a real, established account? check join date, post count, verification."
• 📊 Audience sizing — "rank these 20 accounts by follower count and give me a table."
• 🗂️ Directory building — "collect bios and websites for these accounts and group them by industry."
• 📈 Growth tracking — "compare today's follower counts with last week's numbers."

FAQ — scraping X (Twitter) profiles {#faq--scraping-x-twitter-profiles}

Is it legal to scrape X profiles?

The actor collects only publicly available profile data — what X shows any logged-out visitor. It never logs in and never touches protected accounts. You are responsible for compliant use; profile data can be personal data, so follow GDPR, CCPA, and platform terms.

Do I need an X API key, developer account, or login?

No. No API key, no OAuth app, no X API tier, no login, no cookies.

Can I scrape follower and following counts?

Yes — followers and following come straight from the live public profile.

Can I get the list of followers themselves?

No. X does not expose follower lists to logged-out clients, so this actor returns counts, not the individual accounts.

Can I scrape protected (private) accounts?

No. They are reported in the run log and skipped. The actor never bypasses access controls.

How many profiles can I scrape in one run?

As many as you queue — there is no cap on usernames. Use Max profiles if you want to limit a run deliberately.

Do I get the bio link un-shortened?

Yes. website is the expanded destination URL, not the t.co wrapper.

Is the avatar full resolution?

Yes. profileImage points to the full-size image rather than the _normal thumbnail.

Can I export profiles to CSV, Excel, or JSON?

Yes — JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML via the Console or the API format parameter.

Can I use it with the Apify API?

Yes. Use myagizm~x-profile-scraper with the sync or async endpoints shown above.

Is there an MCP server for AI agents?

Yes — Claude, ChatGPT, and Cursor can call this actor as a tool through the Apify MCP server.

Do I need proxies?

No. Proxy handling is built in and managed.

Can I schedule runs?

Yes. Apify Schedules, API, or webhooks.

What happens if a username does not exist?

It is reported in the run log and the rest of the batch continues.

How fresh is the data?

No caching — every run reads the current public profile.

Can I also get the account's posts?

Yes, with the X (Twitter) User Tweets Scraper. This actor is profile-only by design so you are not billed for posts you did not ask for.

Does it work with numeric IDs?

Input is by handle or profile URL. The numeric id is returned in the output so you can key your database on it.
