Overview#
Twist is a communication app designed for team collaboration, with a focus on organized, threaded conversations. Using the Twist API on Pipedream, you can automate workflows to enhance productivity, streamline communication, and integrate with other tools. From automating notifications to syncing tasks across platforms, the API unlocks valuable use cases for teams needing to stay in sync without the noise of email or less structured chat apps.
import { axios } from "@pipedream/platform"
export default defineComponent({
props: {
twist: {
type: "app",
app: "twist",
}
},
async run({steps, $}) {
return await axios($, {
url: `https://api.twist.com/api/v3/users/get_session_user`,
headers: {
Authorization: `Bearer ${this.twist.$auth.oauth_access_token}`,
},
})
},
})

Example Use Cases#
Automated Project Updates: Create a workflow that triggers whenever a new task is added to a project management tool like Asana or Trello. The update is then formatted and posted to a specific Twist channel to keep the team informed without leaving their communication hub.
Support Ticket Notification: Build an automation that listens for new support tickets from a platform like Zendesk. When a ticket is received, it triggers a Pipedream workflow that posts a summary and link to the ticket in a designated Twist channel, ensuring that the support team can react quickly.
Daily Digests from Multiple Tools: Set up a daily scheduled workflow that aggregates updates from various tools such as GitHub for commits, JIRA for issue updates, and Google Calendar for meeting schedules. The workflow compiles these into a single digest and posts it to Twist, giving the team a one-glance summary of the day’s agenda and activity.

Authentication#
Twist uses OAuth authentication. When you connect your Twist account, Pipedream will open a popup window where you can sign into Twist and grant Pipedream permission to connect to your account. Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any Twist API.
Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
