Scrape CreatorsInstall

Overview

The "Scrape Creators" node provides real-time social media data scraping capabilities across multiple platforms, including Twitter (X). Specifically, the "Get User Tweets" operation fetches tweets from a specified Twitter profile handle. This is useful for monitoring user activity, gathering content for analysis, or integrating recent tweets into workflows.

Practical examples:

• Automatically retrieve and analyze tweets from a competitor's profile.
• Aggregate tweets from influencers to monitor trends.
• Feed latest tweets into a CRM or marketing automation system.

Properties

Output

The node outputs JSON data containing the tweets retrieved from the specified Twitter user. Each item in the output typically represents a tweet with details such as text content, timestamp, tweet ID, and possibly metadata like retweet count or likes.

If binary data is returned (not indicated here), it would represent media associated with tweets, but this node primarily returns structured JSON tweet data.

Dependencies

• Requires an API key credential for the Scrape Creators service.
• The node makes HTTP requests to https://api.scrapecreators.com with appropriate headers including the API key.
• No other external dependencies are indicated.

Troubleshooting

• Invalid or missing API key: Ensure the API key credential is correctly configured in n8n.
• Handle not found or private profile: If the specified Twitter handle does not exist or is private, the node may return an error or empty results.
• Rate limiting: The Scrape Creators API may enforce rate limits; hitting these will cause errors until reset.
• Network issues: Connectivity problems can cause request failures; verify network access to the API endpoint.
