Twitter List Followers API - Public List Subscribers

Provide required list_id to request the available accounts that follow a public X List. These are List subscribers, not the curated member accounts returned by list-members. Optional cursor requests another subscriber page for the same List. Subscriber fields, continuation response keys and missing or private-List behavior have not been live-verified. Treat exported records as dated observed coverage rather than a complete subscriber census or proof of audience interests.

API Features

List-subscriber audience lookup The documented collection targets accounts following the List, a different relationship from List membership.

Subscriber collection by List ID A single required list_id anchors the request to the selected public List's audience.

Subscriber-page cursor control An optional cursor is available for additional collected subscribers; validate its response fields before pagination.

Audience-sample interpretation Returned List followers can support observed overlap research but do not establish a subscriber's private interests or full network.

Frequently asked questions

Which accounts does list-followers request?

It requests available subscribers to a public List selected by required list_id, with optional cursor for another page. Subscribers are different from the curated member accounts returned by list-members.

Can List subscribers be treated as a complete audience census?

No. Subscriber fields, pagination keys and unavailable-List behavior need validation. Collected records are dated observed coverage and do not establish a subscriber's private interests or complete account network.
