Finding the user ID on Twitter's new redesign

Inspect the profile's page and then inspect the follow button on the profile's description. there should be a data-testid="<number>-follow" with <number> being the user ID. The header image still contains the user ID. — Jeluang Terluang (talk) 09:26, 23 July 2019 (UTC)

I also found it in data-screen-name="atblahblahblah" data-name="Blah Blah Blah" data-user-id="<number>" --User123o987name (talk) 11:21, 2 February 2020 (UTC)

@Jeluang Terluang: I just use this website, it's pretty intuitive http://gettwitterid.com DemonDays64 | Talk to me 22:05, 24 May 2020 (UTC) (please ping on reply)

I know of third party sites that can get the user ID. I just meant how to get the IDs themselves without using third party sites. But that is one of the many others that can help other users to find them. – Jeluang Terluang (talk) 10:25, 25 May 2020 (UTC)

This bookmarklet Help:How to get a Twitter user numeric ID by @Rxy is helpful without using third party websites. Kethyga (talk) 05:34, 24 June 2021 (UTC)

Qualifier for Twitter (X) username (P2002)?

I wonder if we shouldn't simply use this as a qualifier of Twitter (X) username (P2002). I suppose it doesn't matter when the name is stable and there is just one account.

• For accounts that changed names, it can be an easy way to identify them: see Property_talk:P2002#Renamed_accounts?
• Also, items such as Wikidata (Q2013) that have multiple accounts: Q2013#P2002 and Q2013#P6552 could benefit from the two identifiers being linked explicitly. --- Jura 15:49, 8 August 2019 (UTC)
  • I updated English description/constraints accordingly. I will check about the best was to fix the (somewhat limited) current uses. --- Jura 12:36, 24 August 2019 (UTC)
    • Given that we already use a bot to populate Genius artist numeric ID (P6351) i imagine we could do the same here. --Trade (talk) 19:43, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

That site seems to be kaput. Here is a tool to find the Twitter User ID - https://codeofaninja.com/tools/find-twitter-id/ - Fuzheado (talk) 10:05, 4 March 2021 (UTC)

This now seems to also be kaput. Hoping there's a working tool for this. Trilotat (talk) 14:58, 20 August 2022 (UTC)

Reversing the roles of P2002 and P6552

If interested in this topic please contribute to the discussion at Wikidata:Requests_for_permissions/Bot/SilentSpikeBot#Relevant_property_discussion where I seek to establish a bot task to handle this conversion and prevent data becoming stale. --SilentSpike (talk) 15:06, 20 February 2020 (UTC)

Changed formatter URL

Hi! In this edit I changed the value of formatter URL (P1630) on this. The previous value was:

https://twitter.com/intent/user?user_id=$1

but with tracking protection settings and some cookies blocked in Firefox on my computer, this never redirects. However, what I changed it to:

https://twitter.com/i/user/$1

works (and does so pretty quickly). DemonDays64 | Talk to me 22:03, 24 May 2020 (UTC) (please ping on reply)

@DemonDays64: No need to change if both are valid. You can list both and set this new one as preferred rank since it seems better. --SilentSpike (talk) 22:06, 24 May 2020 (UTC)

Video tutorial and other instructions

A quick video tutorial

Hi. For anyone interested, I just created a short video tutorial (on the right) on how to find a numeric ID using the "Report an ussue" method. I also updated the instructions here.

For those who, in addition to the numerical identifier, want to know the exact date of creation of the Twitter account, there is a website where this information is provided. If this website is down for some reason, you can use the other one which seems to be a mirror of codeofninja, but I'm not sure about that. Kirilloparma (talk) 16:44, 20 September 2022 (UTC)

Twitter numeric user ID no longer works for those who are not a member of X

Since Twitter numeric user ID no longer works for those who are not a members of X, I wonder what WD should do? Opinions? Ottawahitech (talk) 16:59, 14 January 2024 (UTC)
