What Is the Truth Social API?
If you’re trying to monitor Trump’s posts on Truth Social or build anything programmatic with the platform, you’ve probably noticed something frustrating: there’s no official Truth Social API.
That’s where Scrape Creators comes in**.** We built an unofficial Truth Social API that gives you real-time access to posts, perfect for alerts, automations, dashboards, or just staying ahead of the news cycle.
Why No Official Truth Social API Exists
Truth Social was never designed with developers in mind. There’s no public documentation, no API, and no developer portal. As of now, there’s no official way to pull posts, user timelines, or search content via an API.
This is why we built something fast, lightweight, and reliable.
How the Scrape Creators Unoffical API Works
Our API hits Truth Social directly and delivers clean JSON data in a REST format. We handle all the heavy lifting behind the scenes, rotating proxies, bypassing detection, and making sure the data stays fresh and accurate.
You just hit the endpoint, and boom the latest posts are yours.
Use Case: Monitor Trump Posts
Want to get notified the second Trump posts something?
After you sign up for an API key, here’s how you would do that:
async function scrapeTrumpsFeed() {
try {
const response = await axios.get(
`https://api.scrapecreators.com/v1/truthsocial/user/posts?user_id=107780257626128497`,
{
headers: {
"x-api-key": process.env.SCRAPE_CREATORS_API_KEY,
},
}
);
return response.data;
} catch (error) {
console.error("error at scrapeTrumpsFeed", error.message);
}
}
// Simple script to check for new Trump posts and notify yourself
(async () => {
while (true) {
// Get Trump's latest posts from Truth Social
const trumpsFeed = await scrapeTrumpsFeed();
const posts = trumpsFeed?.posts || [];
if (posts.length > 0) {
const latestPost = posts[0]; // Most recent post
// Check if this is a new post (in real app, you'd compare with database)
// const lastKnownPostId = await getLastKnownPostIdFromDatabase();
// if (latestPost.id !== lastKnownPostId) {
console.log("🚨 NEW TRUMP POST DETECTED! 🚨");
console.log(`Post ID: ${latestPost.id}`);
console.log(`Content: ${latestPost.text}`);
console.log(`Posted: ${latestPost.created_at}`);
// In real app, you'd save to database here
// await savePostToDatabase(latestPost);
// Send notification (in real app, you'd use email/SMS/webhook)
// await sendEmailNotification("New Trump post!", latestPost.text);
// await sendSMSNotification("Trump just posted: " + latestPost.text.substring(0, 100));
console.log("✅ Notification would be sent here!");
// }
} else {
console.log("No new posts found");
}
}
})();
