# Simple X API – Get User Tweets (User ID 12)

> Simple X API – Get User Tweets (User ID 12) is a paid API for AI agents from simple-x-api.com, paid per call via x402, $10/call, status unknown (last checked 2026-10-16).

## How to call it through Zero

Zero handles the 402 payment challenge and records the run. With the Zero CLI installed (`npm i -g @zeroxyz/cli`):

```sh
zero fetch --capability simple-x-api-get-user-tweets-user-id-12-964caac5
```

Example prompt: Can you fetch the tweets from X user ID 12 using the simple-x-api proxy?

## When to prefer this

Use this endpoint when you need to programmatically retrieve tweets for a specific X user and want to pay per-call in USDC via x402 without managing your own X API credentials. It is a simple proxy, so it is best suited for lightweight, infrequent lookups rather than high-volume polling.

## Known failure modes

- User ID not found or account suspended — 404 or similar error from upstream X API
- Upstream X API rate limit exceeded — may return 429
- x402 payment authorization failure — call blocked before reaching X
- Invalid HTTP method supplied — schema enforces GET/HEAD/DELETE only
- X API credentials on the proxy side expired or revoked — upstream 401

## How this service works

Proxy the corresponding X API v2 endpoint. x402 authorizes up to $2.00; successful responses settle at X's documented per-resource/per-action price.

## Output

Returns a list of tweet objects for the specified user (user ID 12), following the X API v2 response format, including tweet text, IDs, timestamps, and metadata. The actual settlement cost is X's public per-resource price, up to $10 USDC.
