X Scraping API 2.0

With X Scraping API you scrape any tweet. You just have to pass the URL of that tweet and our API will return the parsed JSON data.

Each successful request will cost you 5 API credits. Twitter Scraping API pricing is available here.

You have to send a GET request to http://api.scrapingdog.com/x/v2 with the below-given parameters.

The difference between the legacy Twitter Scraping API and X Scraping API 2.0 is that the new API is much faster, returns detailed information about the tweet, and consumes fewer credits.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
api_key required	Your personal API key. Available on your dashboard. Type: String
parsed	This is a boolean that tells our server to return JSON or HTML. If you pass true then our server will return a JSON response and if you pass false then HTML will be returned. Type: Boolean
tweetId required	This is the tweet ID. Type: String

API Example

cURL

curl "https://api.scrapingdog.com/x/v2?api_key=5eaa61a6e562fc52fe763tr516e4653&tweetId=1655608985058267139&parsed=true"

Python

import requests

api_key = '5eaa61a6e562fc52fe763tr516e4653'
tweetId = '1655608985058267139'
parsed = 'true'  # Use 'true' or 'false' based on your requirements

params = {
    'api_key': api_key,
    'tweetId': tweetId,
    'parsed': parsed
}

response = requests.get('https://api.scrapingdog.com/x/v2', params=params)

if response.status_code == 200:
    # Parse the JSON response using response.json()
    response_data = response.json()
    
    # Now you can work with the response_data as a Python dictionary
    print(response_data)
else:
    print(f'Request failed with status code: {response.status_code}')

Node JS

  .then((response) => {
