Every user on the platform X, formerly known as Twitter, has a unique numerical user ID. Some API applications require you to use user IDs instead of usernames to access user information. While X no longer lets you view user IDs on the website or mobile app, you can still find anyone's Twitter/X user ID using a third-party website. This wikiHow article teaches you how to find your user ID on X (Twitter).

Things You Should Know

• While you won't find your user ID on the X (Twitter) platform anymore, you can still look it up using a third-party website.
• Visit a site like What's My Twitter ID, Find Twitter ID, or Twitter ID Finder, enter a username, and click the "Find" or "Get ID" button.
• You can use an X/Twitter User ID finder to find the user ID for any Twitter user as long as you know their username.

  That information is no longer available on the mobile app. You need to use a third-party website.
