Complete guide to using twitter-api-simple
Search Twitter in real time by keyword and retrieve the latest or top matching tweets through a single API call.
The Twitter Simple Search API on ApiPass is a lightweight, developer-friendly endpoint that lets you query Twitter's public content by keyword, hashtag, cashtag, or phrase and receive structured tweet data in return. By submitting a query string such as eth along with a sort preference (Latest or Top), you can instantly pull relevant tweets from across the platform. Results are returned as clean JSON containing tweet IDs and text content, along with a cursor for seamless pagination — making it easy to build search-driven applications without dealing with Twitter's complex authentication flows or restrictive rate limits.
Access the endpoint with a single Bearer token. No OAuth 1.0a, no app registration, no developer approval process.
Submit a search task and retrieve results when ready, allowing your application to scale without blocking on long-running requests.
Choose between "Latest" for real-time monitoring or "Top" for the most engaging and relevant tweets on a topic.
The response includes a next_cursor_str field, so you can paginate through large result sets effortlessly.
Skip Twitter's expensive enterprise tiers and pay only for the searches you actually run through ApiPass.
ApiPass handles all the backend complexity — proxy rotation, session management, and endpoint updates — so your integration keeps working.
Search by any keyword, phrase, hashtag, or cashtag (e.g., eth, #AI, $BTC) with full-text query capability.
Every result includes tweet_id and text fields in a predictable schema, ready to feed directly into your database or analytics pipeline.
Provide a callBackUrl to receive task results via webhook the moment your search completes, eliminating the need to poll.
Track mentions of tickers like eth, btc, or sol and visualize sentiment trends over time.
Continuously scan Twitter for mentions of your brand, product, or competitors and alert your team in real time.
Surface breaking news and viral conversations by pulling the latest tweets around any topic keyword.
Collect large volumes of topic-specific tweets to train sentiment models, classifiers, or LLM fine-tuning pipelines.
Twitter's official search/recent and search/all endpoints require a paid Developer account with tiered pricing that can reach thousands of dollars per month for meaningful volume. ApiPass provides equivalent search functionality on a pay-as-you-go basis with a single API key — no application review, no monthly minimums.
The official API requires OAuth setup, strict rate-limit management, and careful handling of the v2 response envelope. ApiPass reduces this to two simple HTTP calls — one to create a search task, one to fetch the result — with a consistent JSON schema across every endpoint.
Search for token symbols and derive early trading signals from social chatter before they hit mainstream feeds.
Monitor what people are saying about competing products and identify feature requests, complaints, or opportunities.
Follow hashtags around product launches, conferences, or marketing campaigns to measure reach and engagement.
Collect topic-specific tweet datasets for linguistic, political, or social science research without wrestling with Twitter's academic access tiers.
Sign up at ApiPass.dev and generate a Bearer token from your dashboard.
Send a POST request to https://api.apipass.dev/api/v1/jobs/createTask with the model set to twitter/simple/search and your query parameters (q and sort_by). You'll receive a taskId in response.
Call https://api.apipass.dev/api/v1/jobs/recordInfo with your taskId to get the array of matching tweets and a next_cursor_str for pagination. Optionally, provide a callBackUrl in your original request to receive results via webhook automatically.
All APIs require authentication via Bearer Token.
Authorization: Bearer
