X Communities Search API - Discover Topic-Focused Groups

Pass required query to discover candidate X Communities for a topic. Optional cursor continues results for the same query. Community discovery is separate from searching posts inside Communities; the latter has dedicated latest- and top-ranked endpoints. Exact community identifiers, descriptive keys, ranking behavior and no-match response shape have not been live-verified. Review returned matches for relevance and validate identifiers before using community-info, community-members or community-posts.

API Features

Topic-based Community discovery query seeks Communities related to a supplied keyword rather than posts from a preselected group.

Discovery-versus-post-search split Use this collection for candidate groups; dedicated Community post searches serve ranked discussion discovery.

Community search continuation Optional cursor keeps a discovery query consistent across further available result pages.

Validated Community-ID handoff Returned identifiers must be checked before they seed independent Community information, member or post requests.
