开发Twitter推文调度应用：如何获取所需account_id？

Hey there! Let me break down what the account_id is and how you can get it for your scheduled tweets app.

What is account_id in the Twitter Ads API? #

The account_id is a unique numerical identifier tied to your Twitter Ads account (not your regular personal Twitter user account). Even if you're only scheduling organic (non-ad) tweets, this endpoint lives under the Ads API ecosystem, so you need to link your request to a valid Ads account ID.

How to retrieve your account_id #

You have two reliable methods to get this ID:

1. Through the Twitter Ads Dashboard (UI) #

• Log into your Twitter Ads dashboard
• Check the browser's address bar once you're logged in. It will look similar to this: https://ads.twitter.com/accounts/123456789/campaigns
• The numerical string right after /accounts/ is your account_id (in this example, it's 123456789)

2. Programmatically via the Ads API #

If you want to fetch it through code, make a GET request to the Accounts endpoint:

GET https://ads-api.twitter.com/2/accounts

You'll need to authenticate using valid OAuth credentials or a bearer token that's associated with your Twitter Ads account. The response will return a list of accounts linked to your authenticated user, and each entry will include an id field—that's your target account_id.

Quick note: If you don't have a Twitter Ads account yet, you can create one for free (even if you don't intend to run paid ads) to access this endpoint.
