- **Documentation:** [https://scrappa.co/docs/x-twitter/x_twitter_search_users](https://scrappa.co/docs/x-twitter/x_twitter_search_users)
- **API group:** X (Twitter) API
- **Endpoint:** `GET https://scrappa.co/api/x-twitter/search/users`

## Authentication

Send your Scrappa API key in the `X-API-KEY` request header. Paid endpoints also support accountless x402 payments when called without an API key.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| `q` | string | Yes | <p>Search query.</p> |
| `cursor` | string | No | <p>Opaque cursor from the previous page. Pagination is driven by this value; the returned result count is the authoritative page size.</p> |
| `count` | integer | No | <p>Requested page size. Advisory only: the upstream sets the page size, so the returned result count is what matters.</p> |
| `lang` | string | No | <p>Result language code.</p> |
