X / Twitter

X publishing in Influgen is optimized for image posts and image carousels. It works especially well when you want the visual identity of the character but a shorter, more opinionated text layer.

What X supports​

Influgen accepts:

  • single-image posts
  • multi-image carousel posts

Video-first content is not the default X path in the current scheduling rules.

Connection flow​

X uses OAuth with a dedicated callback-oriented default redirect:

  • default redirect path: /settings/twitter/callback

The typical flow is:

  1. Open Settings > X / Twitter.
  2. Click Connect X / Twitter.
  3. Approve access.
  4. Return through the callback page.
  5. Confirm the connected account and token health.

Why X works differently​

X is more text-sensitive than Instagram or Pinterest, so caption quality matters more. This is a good channel to use caption variants aggressively:

  • a punchy version for broad reach
  • a question-led version for replies
  • a story-led version for more context

Asset requirements​

X scheduling requires at least one generated image asset. If a content item has no usable image media, scheduling is blocked.

Reconnect behavior​

If the token expires, reconnect in Settings and retry the pending entries. Influgen preserves the underlying content so you do not have to rebuild the post.

Best practices​

  • keep captions tighter than on Instagram
  • use carousels when one image is not enough to explain the concept
  • match the text style to the character, not to generic "viral tweet" patterns
