Hey all,
Why was twitter list scraper removed? Was being used actively by me without a problem. Can it be restored? If not whats an alternative? If you are removing without alternative why arent you making a warning for that? I was building a product relying on this Actor. Need your help with this. Please get back asap!

Hey, sorry, again, I republished, but can you check if the use case would work on the regular scraper? https://apify.com/quacker/twitter-scraper

Hi, thanks for your support!

I've gone through all the other scrapers, but unfortunately, none of them seem to fit my needs.

Can this twitter-scraper extract a Twitter List timeline? I doubt it's possible, because the quacker/twitter-scraper doesn't support login with cookies. Please keep the Twitter List Scraper there. I noticed the previous charge of $12 has been removed for this one. If making it a paid service again would help, I'm willing to pay for it!

this one can scrape a list, example: query=list/1334803406523953152 https://apify.com/jupri/twitter-scraper

, how does one use the Twitter Explorer actor to get historical data on a hashtag for a time range, for example 1/1/2020 to 1/31/2023?

!!!!Joefree!!! 👑

to search hashtag use query="#hashtag". To filter by date: use filters.since = "YYYY-MM-DD" and filters.until = "YYYY-MM-DD" eg:

Plain Text

{"query": "#apify", "filters.since": "2020-01-01", "filters.until": "2023-01-31"  }

Please contact the developer at https://console.apify.com/actors/Yl8ZS9fIKEuFeOWgt/issues if you have more question.
