X (Twitter) Overview#

The Twitter API on Pipedream enables you to automate interactions with Twitter, from posting tweets to analyzing social media trends. Pipedream's serverless platform provides the tools to create workflows that trigger on specific Twitter activities, process data, and connect with countless other apps for extensive automation scenarios. With Pipedream's integration, you can listen for events such as new tweets, mentions, or followers, and execute actions like tweeting, retweeting, or even leveraging sentiment analysis to gauge public perception.

Pipedream securely stores and automatically refreshes the OAuth tokens so you can easily authenticate any X (Twitter) API.

Pipedream requests the following authorization scopes when you connect your account:
