Frequently asked questions

Does this use the official paid xAI developer API?

No. It returns the real consumer Grok assistant response, including the web citations and X post references shown by the product. You only need a ScrapeBadger API key.

Can I continue a conversation?

Yes. Pass the returned conversation_id to /v1/grok/ask to add a follow-up, or fetch /v1/grok/conversations/{conversation_id} for the normalized message history.

Which search modes are available?

web_search=auto lets Grok decide, force requests web and X search, and off disables those tools. mode selects auto, fast, or expert answering.

How long does a request take?

Simple answers can return in seconds. Grounded answers with web and X research take longer, so use a timeout of at least 90 seconds.
