This guide walks you through retrieving your muted users list using the X API.
PrerequisitesBefore you begin, you’ll need:
  • A developer account with an approved App
  • User Access Token (OAuth 1.0a or OAuth 2.0 PKCE)

​
Get your muted users

1

Get your user ID

You need your authenticated user’s ID. You can find it using the user lookup endpoint or from your Access Token (the numeric part is your user ID).
2

Request your muted users

cURL
curl "https://api.x.com/2/users/123456789/muting?\
user.fields=created_at,username,verified&\
max_results=100" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $USER_ACCESS_TOKEN"
3

Review the response

{
  "data": [
    {
      "id": "2244994945",
      "name": "X Developers",
      "username": "XDevelopers",
      "created_at": "2013-12-14T04:35:55.000Z",
      "verified": true
    }
  ],
  "meta": {
    "result_count": 1,
    "next_token": "1710819323648428707"
  }
}

​
Include additional data

Use expansions to get related data like pinned Posts:
cURL
curl "https://api.x.com/2/users/123456789/muting?\
user.fields=created_at&\
expansions=pinned_tweet_id&\
tweet.fields=created_at" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $USER_ACCESS_TOKEN"

​
Response with expansion

{
  "data": [
    {
      "username": "XDevelopers",
      "created_at": "2013-12-14T04:35:55.000Z",
      "id": "2244994945",
      "name": "X Developers",
      "pinned_tweet_id": "1430984356139470849"
    }
  ],
  "includes": {
    "tweets": [
      {
        "created_at": "2021-08-26T20:03:51.000Z",
        "id": "1430984356139470849",
        "text": "Help us build a better X Developer Platform!..."
      }
    ]
  },
  "meta": {
    "result_count": 1
  }
}

​
Paginate through results

The SDKs handle pagination automatically. For cURL, use the next_token from the response: 
curl "https://api.x.com/2/users/123456789/muting?\
max_results=100&\
pagination_token=1710819323648428707" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $USER_ACCESS_TOKEN"
