X User Media API
Scrape X User Media data with one API call. Returns the tweets on a Twitter/X account's Media tab: only the tweets carrying a photo or video. Each tweet includes the full text, media attachment URLs, like count, retweet count, reply count, author info, and creation timestamp; view and bookmark counts are not available on this surface and return null. Page size is set by the source. Deeper history is a cursor walk: send `pagination.next_cursor` back as `cursor` and repeat until `pagination.has_more` is false; each page costs 1 credit.
Last updated August 2026Maintained by the SocialCrawl team
Returns the tweets on an account's Media tab, only those carrying a photo or video, with media URLs, engagement counts, and creation time. View and bookmark counts are null here.
Use it to pull an account's visual output without the text-only tweets user/tweets includes; the cursor pages deeper into the media grid.
