ActionTwitter / XUpdated September 2026

How do I post a tweet from a workflow?

Short answer: You can post tweet in Twitter / X by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Twitter / X Post Tweet action to a workflow, map its 2 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Post Tweet.

What does the Post Tweet action do in Twitter / X?

Posts a new tweet on Twitter/X with up to 280 characters (more for X Premium). Supports reply_settings, polls, and quote-tweet of an existing tweet ID. Free tier is heavily rate-limited.

What inputs does Post Tweet require?

Required: Tweet Text. 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 Twitter / X returns an error?

The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Twitter / X returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.

Does Post Tweet support batch operations?

Run Post Tweet inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Twitter / X's rate limits.
