  "country": "United Kingdom",
  "dial_code": "+44",

  ]
}

What It Does

This actor searches Twitter-related public web content connected to your keywords and extracts phone numbers tied to the dial code you select.

Extracts phone numbers tied to your dial code

Twitter Phone Number Scraper focuses on phone numbers found in Twitter bios, profiles, and posts related to your keywords. It validates and formats detected numbers into E.164, so your dataset is consistent for analysis and importing.

Built for Twitter contact scraper workflows

You provide a keyword list and a country, and the actor returns a dataset where each record includes the matched keyword, source text (description), and source link (url). This makes it straightforward to build lead lists, run QA checks, and compare results across keyword sets.

Uses your targeting inputs to reduce noise

Selecting more specific keywords and the right country dial code improves the relevancy of matches you’ll see in results. If you’re aiming for Twitter scrape phone numbers for outreach, this helps keep your dataset concentrated on the segments you care about.

Writes results immediately to your Apify dataset

As soon as a phone number is found, the actor pushes a dataset row with fields like phone_number, url, and country. That means you don’t have to wait for the entire run to finish before you can start exporting or reviewing partial results.

Handles errors without destroying your whole run

If individual pushes fail, the actor logs the error and continues processing. That makes it more resilient for real-world lead generation phone numbers harvesting jobs where some requests may intermittently fail.

Overall, Twitter Phone Number Scraper turns keyword-based Twitter phone number harvesting software workflows into a repeatable, export-ready process.

Reliability & Limitations

What We Handle	How
Proxy support	You can configure proxies for the Actor run via proxyConfiguration.
