Twitter verified followers API & profile export
Retrieve verified profiles that follow one X account. Store stable user IDs,
handles, verification types, counts, and pagination cursors.
Existing unprefixed cursors keep their legacy behavior.

printing the full response page. Persist

Get verified followers returns verified profiles that follow one X account by
username or numeric user ID. It is also useful as a verified followers API,
X verified followers API, or Twitter verified followers API. The canonical
endpoint remains

mode for automatic maximum coverage. Xquik combines available views
within a short request window. It keeps the existing response shape.
Pass next_cursor back unchanged as cursor. Keep the same endpoint, target,
query, and filters.after, limit, and
pageSize aliases also keep working. Billing still counts only returned rows.
Use mode=standard only to force legacy single-view pagination.
A page can be empty or underfilled. Continue while has_next_page is true.
Stop only after the response reports has_next_page=false.
If automatic coverage is busy, an initial request returns a standard data page.
Live coverage cursors remain atomic. Concurrent use returns
409 coverage_cursor_unavailable with exact Retry-After seconds. Wait, then
retry the same cursor once.
Finished, expired, superseded, or identity-mismatched cursors return
410 coverage_cursor_gone. The response omits Retry-After. Restart without
a cursor. Deduplicate restarted results by id.
Malformed cursors return 400 invalid_coverage_cursor. Restart without them.

duplicating already imported profiles.
Direct verified followers handoff
UseGET /x/users/{id}/verified-followers when a CRM, warehouse, scoring, enrichment, or agent workflow needs one JSON page of verified followers now. The endpoint accepts either a username or numeric user ID and returns verified follower profile rows with cursor fields. Use verified_follower_explorer when you need an estimated job, saved extraction, or CSV/JSON/XLSX file export.

Review verified followers separately
Use this route when the verification filter is part of the question. Keep the source account ID with every returned profile. Export fields such as user ID, username, profile name, biography, location, verification state, and follower counts. Save the cursor and collection time with each page. Verified follower rows can support account research, partner review, or audience segmentation. Verification does not prove relevance or endorsement. Apply another review step before outreach or ranking. Compare snapshots by user ID. Do not use username changes as new follower events. Keep the complete followers endpoint separate when analysis needs the entire audience. Paginate until no next cursor remains. Deduplicate resumed exports by source account and follower ID.Build a verified follower directory
Start with one source account ID or username. Resolve and store its stable user ID. Keep that source ID on every verified follower row. Store follower user ID, username, profile name, biography, location, and profile image when returned. Keepverified and verifiedType as separate
fields. Add follower count, following count, and collection time.
Use verification type for a documented segment. Do not translate it into
authority, relevance, identity quality, or endorsement. Add those judgments
only through a reviewed downstream process.
Use stable follower IDs for CRM upserts. Treat usernames, names, biographies,
images, verification, and counts as replaceable profile attributes. Keep
rejected import rows for review.
Choose direct cursor pages for current application reads. Choose
verified_follower_explorer for estimates, saved jobs, and downloadable CSV,
JSON, or XLSX files. Record which path created every directory snapshot.
Validate verified follower export completeness
Save every page before advancing its opaque cursor. Request another page only whenhas_next_page is true. Pass next_cursor back unchanged.
Deduplicate resumed pages by source account ID and follower user ID. Keep the
newest complete profile fields. Preserve the earliest collection evidence when
an audit needs it.
Record page count, unique row count, first cursor, last cursor, and completion
time. Mark result caps, low credits, failed pages, and interrupted downloads.
Never call those runs complete.
Compare the exported row count with the saved extraction result when using a
job. Investigate duplicate user IDs, rejected rows, and parsing errors. Check
incomplete downloads before loading a warehouse.
Refresh verification before time-sensitive segmentation. Verification can
change after collection. Keep the collection time beside every exported row.
