# A free Twitter search API that returns JSON, with X's search operators

Unif API’s [free X search endpoint](<https://unifapi.com/blog/free-twitter-search-api>) returns public posts as JSON without a login or API key. Pass X search operators such as from:, since:, min\_faves: or filter:media in the q parameter.

Results are newest first, 20 per page, with text, author details, metrics and media. Pass nextCursor back as cursor to keep paging. You can also request Markdown with format=md.

The free cap is 20 units per 10 minutes per visitor across /tools/x/\* endpoints. A search costs 2 units. It doesn’t return protected posts, relevance-ranked results or a total match count. The shared free service has no guarantees; metered access requires a workspace key.
