x_get_tweets 4 credits

Fetch one page of an X account's timeline. identifier is a screen name, profile URL, or numeric id (auto-detected). mode picks the view: posts (default) is the account's own tweets, posts_and_replies includes their replies, highlights is the account's pinned highlights tab. include_retweets (default true) filters retweets out when false. Costs 4 credits per page; a cursor page is a NEW call priced the same way. Returns tweet summaries with engagement counts and a cursor for older tweets. Use this for 'what has X been posting', voice checks before outreach, or drafting replies in an account's register. For keyword search across all of X use x_search; for one specific tweet you already have, x_get_tweet.

Parameters

Param	Required	Type	Description
`identifier`	yes	`string`	Screen name without the @, profile URL, or numeric account id.
`mode`	no	`string`	Which timeline view to read.
`include_retweets`	no	`boolean`	Set false to drop retweets from the page.
`cursor`	no	`string`	Cursor from a previous page for older tweets.
`freshness`	no	`string`	recent (default) serves cached data from the last few hours when available; realtime forces a live fetch for +2 credits (refunded if we fall back to cached data).
`max_credits`	no	`integer`	Spend ceiling for this one call. The call is rejected (nothing charged) if its quote exceeds this. Only the quote is ever reserved, never this ceiling.

Code	HTTP status	Retriable	Meaning
`INVALID_INPUT`	400	no	A parameter failed validation. Check param and message for what to fix.
`NOT_FOUND`	404	no	Nothing matches the given identifier or URL.
`UNAUTHORIZED`	401	no	Missing, invalid, or revoked API key.
`NOT_ENTITLED`	403	no	This account is not enabled for the platform you called.
`INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS`	402	no	Your balance can't cover this call's quote. Check get_usage or add credits.
`QUOTE_EXCEEDS_MAX_CREDITS`	402	no	The call's quote is higher than the max_credits you set. Nothing was charged.
`IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REQUIRED`	400	no	This is a metered call; send an Idempotency-Key header.
`IDEMPOTENCY_KEY_REUSED`	409	no	That Idempotency-Key was already used with different arguments. Use a new key for a new call.
`CONCURRENCY_LIMIT`	429	yes	Too many calls in flight for this key's plan. Wait for one to finish.
`RATE_LIMITED`	429	yes	Too many calls per minute for this key's plan. Back off and retry.
`TRIAL_CAP_EXCEEDED`	403	no	A trial-only limit was hit (concurrency, rate, search size, or realtime fetches).
`BUDGET_EXHAUSTED`	503	no	A configured spend budget has been used up.

`PAYLOAD_TOO_LARGE`	413	no	The request or response exceeded the size limit.
`INTERNAL`	500	yes	Something failed on our side. Safe to retry.

Errors a payment can fix add fields to this shape. INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS, TRIAL_CAP_EXCEEDED, and BUDGET_EXHAUSTED carry upgrade_url (give it to your human) and offer, its machine-readable twin; RATE_LIMITED and CONCURRENCY_LIMIT carry both on trial accounts only, where a paid plan raises the limit. offer holds offer_version (1), reason (the error code), currency ("usd"), recommended (which pack to lead with, currently flex), packs (pack, mode, price_usd_cents, credits or credits_per_month, and when, a short label for when that pack fits), rails (currently stripe_checkout), checkout_url (the same account-bound link as upgrade_url), resume, and refund_policy. Follow offer.resume after payment: INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS retries the same call with the SAME Idempotency-Key; TRIAL_CAP_EXCEEDED and BUDGET_EXHAUSTED retry with a fresh key; the two limit codes clear on their own with back-off, payment only raises the limit. INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS also sets credits_required: the credits the failed call needed. The failed attempt charged nothing.
