  title: XPOZ API
  version: 1.0.0
  description: >-
    Social media data API for Twitter/X, Instagram, Reddit, and TikTok.


    **Data endpoints** (`/api/data/*`) are authenticated with an API access key
    and are metered against the account's credits. Most stored-data endpoints
    share the same query options: `fields` selects which attributes to return,
    `since`/`until` bound the date range, and `responseType` picks between a
    synchronous first page (`fast`), a full paged query run as a background
    operation (`paging`), and a CSV export (`csv`). `/live` endpoints fetch from
    the platform on demand and page with a cursor instead.


    **Account, billing, and crawl-settings endpoints** are used by the XPOZ
    dashboard and authenticate with the user's session.
