FAQ

Questions about List Channels.

What does the List Channels action do in Twist?
Lists every channel in the chosen Twist workspace. Use to build a channel picker before posting a thread or comment.
What inputs does List Channels require?
Required: Workspace ID. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Twist returns an error?
The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.
Does List Channels support batch operations?
Yes. Run List Channels inside a Loop node to process arrays. Tiny Command handles Twist's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.
