Blocks for posting tweets and threads to X (Twitter) using the Ayrshare social media management API.

Post To X

What it is

Post to X / Twitter using Ayrshare

How it works

This block uses Ayrshare's API to publish content to X (formerly Twitter). It supports standard tweets (280 characters, or 25,000 for Premium users), threads, polls, quote tweets, and replies, with up to 4 media attachments including video with subtitles.

The block authenticates through Ayrshare and handles X-specific features like automatic thread breaking using double newlines, thread numbering, per-post media attachments, and long-form video uploads (with approval). Poll options and duration can be configured for engagement posts.
