Truth Social API
Profiles and posts from public Truth Social accounts.
Overview
Read public Truth Social accounts the way logged-out visitors see them: profile stats, the latest posts with media and engagement counts, and single posts.
Field names follow Mastodon's API (Truth Social runs on it), so Mastodon client code keeps working. Every post also carries plain text next to the HTML content.
Accounts hidden from logged-out visitors return 403 not_public. When Truth Social doesn't say whether an account is hidden or missing, you get 404 not_found. Prominent accounts and most other public ones are visible.
