Input

Input settings for X Broadcast Viewer History & Replay Link Scraper
SettingTypeRequiredDefaultWhat it does
broadcastIds array Yes – Paste broadcast links such as https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1YGNrbPLejQGw, bare broadcast IDs, post links that announce a broadcast, or legacy Periscope links (/v/<id> or /<user>/<id>). Old pscp.tv/w share links cannot be resolved and return a status row.
includeViewerStats boolean No true Include current/total viewers, the viewer-history graph when X exposes it, and derived peak/average viewers. Turn off for a lighter output.
includeViewerTimeline boolean No false Push one "viewer timeline point" row per point of the broadcast's viewer-history graph. No rows are emitted when X provides no graph.
maxViewerTimelinePoints integer No 0 Maximum timeline rows per broadcast. 0 means all points. When capped, points are evenly sampled across the full broadcast and each row keeps its original index.
includeReplayVideo boolean No false Resolve the HLS playback URL and stream status. For a live broadcast the URL is the live stream; for an ended broadcast it is the replay.
includeChatHistory boolean No false Collect text messages from the broadcast's public chat replay after it ends. Live chat and private chats are not collected. No text is emitted when the chat only contains join/heart events.
maxChatMessages integer No 1000 Maximum public chat text messages per broadcast. Older events and join/heart events are not counted.
includeThumbnail boolean No true Store the broadcast cover image in the run's key-value store and return its stable URL plus the original X image URL.
includeBroadcasterProfile boolean No true Add the broadcaster's public profile (followers, bio, location, account creation date, pinned posts). Falls back to the compact broadcaster record if the profile is unavailable.

Run it from code or an AI agent

The same run through the Apify API, with the example input. You need an Apify API token; the run is billed to your account at the Store price.

Python

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run_input = {
    "broadcastIds": [
        "https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1YGNrbPLejQGw"
    ],
    "includeViewerStats": True,
    "includeViewerTimeline": False,
    "maxViewerTimelinePoints": 0,
    "includeReplayVideo": False,
    "includeChatHistory": False,
    "maxChatMessages": 100,
    "includeThumbnail": True,
    "includeBroadcasterProfile": True
}

run = client.actor("dataspryva/x-broadcast-viewer-history-and-replay-link-scraper").call(run_input=run_input)
if run is None:
    raise RuntimeError("The Actor run was not found.")
for item in client.dataset(run.default_dataset_id).iterate_items():
    print(item)

pip install apify-client

JavaScript

import { ApifyClient } from "apify-client";

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: "<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" });
const input = {
    "broadcastIds": [
        "https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1YGNrbPLejQGw"
    ],
    "includeViewerStats": true,
    "includeViewerTimeline": false,
    "maxViewerTimelinePoints": 0,
    "includeReplayVideo": false,
    "includeChatHistory": false,
    "maxChatMessages": 100,
    "includeThumbnail": true,
    "includeBroadcasterProfile": true
};

const run = await client.actor("dataspryva/x-broadcast-viewer-history-and-replay-link-scraper").call(input);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);

npm install apify-client

cURL

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/actors/dataspryva~x-broadcast-viewer-history-and-replay-link-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items"   -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN"   -H "Content-Type: application/json"   -d '{"broadcastIds":["https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1YGNrbPLejQGw"],"includeViewerStats":true,"includeViewerTimeline":false,"maxViewerTimelinePoints":0,"includeReplayVideo":false,"includeChatHistory":false,"maxChatMessages":100,"includeThumbnail":true,"includeBroadcasterProfile":true}'

Waits for the run and returns the dataset items (runs over 300 seconds return HTTP 408; start an async run instead).

MCP (AI agents)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=dataspryva/x-broadcast-viewer-history-and-replay-link-scraper",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

Adds this Actor as a tool in an MCP client that takes a remote server URL (Cursor, VS Code, Claude Code) through Apify's hosted MCP server. OAuth sign-in also works without the header. Clients that only start local servers can wrap the URL with npx mcp-remote.

What a run costs

The result rate falls on higher Apify plans. Each figure is the published per-result rate times the number of results.

Cost of X Broadcast Viewer History & Replay Link Scraper results by Apify plan
Apify planPer 1,00010,000 results100,000 results
Free plan$0.99$9.90$99
Starter plan$0.82$8.20$82
Scale plan$0.66$6.60$66
Business plan$0.49$4.90$49
  • Every run also has a start event, charged per GB of memory (minimum one): $0.10 on Free, $0.03 on Business. At its default memory of 1 GB a run starts at $0.10 on Free. Fewer, larger runs keep this small.
  • The Free plan includes $5 of monthly usage (Apify pricing, checked 2026-11-11); at the Free rate that covers at most about 5,050 results, less start events and platform usage.
  • Worked example: 10,000 results in one run on the Free plan cost $10 ($9.90 for results + $0.10 start), plus Apify platform usage (compute), billed separately by Apify.
  • Pay per event. Platform usage (compute) is billed by Apify on top of the event prices. Compare other tools in the cost estimator.
