# X User Followers API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/twitter/user-followers)

> Returns the accounts following a Twitter/X user. Each follower includes the username, display name, bio, avatar, follower and following counts, tweet count, account privacy flag, and join date; verification status is not available on this surface and returns null. Page size is set by the source, typically around 70 accounts. To go deeper, send `pagination.next_cursor` back as `cursor` and repeat until `pagination.has_more` is false; each page costs 1 credit.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/twitter/user/followers` costs 1 credit per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
