Twitter Scraper searches and extracts data from Twitter (with historic data from 2006) - parses and converts the data to structured formats: HTML table, JSON, CSV, Excel and XML.
You can access the Twitter Scraper programmatically from your own Python applications by using the Apify API. You can also choose the language preference from below. To use the Apify API, you’ll need an Apify account and your API token, found in Integrations settings in Apify Console.
