X (Twitter) List Scraper

Extract every tweet from any public X (Twitter) list — no login, no API keys, no hassle. Just paste a list URL or ID and get a clean, structured feed of tweets ready for analysis, monitoring, or archiving.

What It Does

X/Twitter Lists are curated feeds — industry watchlists, competitor trackers, journalist roundups, community collections. This scraper pulls the full tweet timeline from any public list and returns it as structured data: text, engagement numbers, media, and author details for every tweet, in the order the list feed shows them.

Just provide one or more list links (or bare list IDs), and the scraper handles the rest — paging through the entire feed until it hits your limit or runs out of tweets.

Key Features

• Full list feed extraction — pulls the complete tweet timeline from any public list, not just the first page.
• Automatic pagination — keeps paging through the list until your requested tweet count is reached.
• Rich engagement metrics — likes, retweets, replies, quotes, bookmarks, and view counts on every tweet.
• Complete author info — username, display name, bio, follower/following counts, verification status, and profile picture for each tweet's author.
• Media extraction — image and video URLs attached to tweets, including best-quality video links.
• Quote tweet support — quoted tweets are captured and nested inside the parent tweet.
• Multiple lists per run — queue up several lists and scrape them all in one job.
• Resilient & resumable — if a run is interrupted, it picks up where it left off instead of starting over.
• Flexible export — download results as JSON, CSV, Excel, or feed them straight into another tool via the Apify API.

Input Parameters

Parameter	Description
List URLs or IDs	One or more X/Twitter list links (e.g. https://x.com/i/lists/123456) or bare list IDs (e.g. 123456).
Max Tweets per List	Maximum number of tweets to pull from each list. Default: 100.

Output Fields

Each tweet in the output dataset includes:

• Tweet text, ID, and direct URL
• Posted date/time
• Engagement metrics — likes, retweets, replies, quotes, bookmarks, views
• Media — attached images and videos
• Hashtags, mentions, and links found in the tweet
• Reply/retweet/quote flags and conversation context
• Author details — username, display name, bio, follower count, verification status, profile picture, and more
• Quoted tweet (if the tweet quotes another one), nested with its own full details

Results can be downloaded in JSON, CSV, Excel, or accessed directly via the Apify API.

Pricing

This actor runs on a pay-per-result model — you're charged only for each tweet actually delivered to your dataset. There are no charges for setup, retries, or overhead. Check the actor's page on the Apify Store for current per-result pricing.
