X (Twitter) Retweeter Scraper — Enriched Profiles

Get everyone who retweeted any public X/Twitter post, returned as fully enriched profiles — not just handles. Paste a tweet URL (or ID), add your X auth_token cookie, and the actor pages through the entire retweeter list and returns one rich record per person: handle, display name, expanded bio, follower / following / tweet / media counts, verification status, account age, follower-to-following ratio, full-resolution avatar & banner, pinned tweet, location, website and more.

Perfect for influencer discovery, audience research, amplifier analysis, competitive intelligence, and community outreach.

Two engines — pick one

Retweeter lists are login-only on X in 2026 (guest/anonymous access was removed). This actor gets them one of two ways:

1. Pool engine (recommended, cookieless). Provide a GetXAPI key and the actor reads retweeters through their pool-based service — no cookies, no X account needed on your side. Get a key in <5 min at getxapi.com (email sign-up, free credits, no card). Provider cost is $0.001 per page of up to ~100 retweeters.
2. Cookie engine (self-hosted). Provide your own X auth_token cookie and the actor drives X's internal API directly, with no third party.

Supply one of apiKey or authToken. If both are set, the pool engine wins.

Input

Field	Required	Description
tweetUrl	–	Tweet URL (https://x.com/user/status/123…) or just the numeric ID.
apiKey	one of	GetXAPI key (recommended, cookieless).
authToken	one of	Your X auth_token cookie (self-hosted engine).
maxResults	–	Cap the number of retweeters (default 100).
csrfToken	–	Optional ct0 cookie for the cookie engine; auto-derived if omitted.
includeRaw	–	Also attach the raw user object under raw.
proxy	–	Proxy config; residential recommended.

Getting a GetXAPI key (recommended)

1. Go to getxapi.com → Signup (email + password, no credit card, free credits included).
2. Verify your email, then in the dashboard hit Create Key and copy it into the API key field. Done — no cookies.

Getting your auth_token (self-hosted engine)

1. Log in to x.com in your browser (use a secondary / burner account — this grants read access as that account).
2. Open DevTools → Application → Cookies → https://x.com.
3. Copy the value of the auth_token cookie into the Auth token field. The ct0 (CSRF) cookie is derived automatically.

Pricing

Pay-per-result: $0.012 per retweeter profile delivered. You are charged once per unique profile actually returned — never for retweeters you didn't receive, and nothing at all on a failed or blocked run. No per-run or per-start fee.

Example: scraping 500 retweeters of a viral post → 500 × $0.012 = $6.00.

Notes & limits

• Retweeters come back newest-first, paginated automatically up to maxResults.
• Protected/suspended accounts among the retweeters are skipped automatically.
• Pool engine: you fund your own TwitterAPI.io balance (~$0.00015/retweeter); it's separate from Apify charges. Cookie engine: use a burner X account — scraping activity is attributed to it.
