X (Twitter) Integration - Implementation Status

✅ Completed

1. TwitterService Core Methods ✅

File: src/modules/social-provider/twitter-service.ts

Publishing Methods Added:

uploadMedia(imageUrl, oauth1Credentials)
- Uploads images/videos using OAuth 1.0a (v1.1 API)
- Downloads media from URL
- Generates OAuth 1.0a signature
- Returns media_id_string for tweet creation
- Supports images and videos
createTweet(content, accessToken)
- Creates tweets using OAuth 2.0 (v2 API)
- Supports text-only tweets
- Supports tweets with media (up to 4 images)
- Returns tweet ID and text
publishTweetWithMedia(content, oauth2Token, oauth1Credentials)
- Combined method for full publishing flow
- Uploads all media first
- Creates tweet with media IDs
- Returns tweet ID and URL
getTweetMetrics(tweetId, accessToken)
- Fetches tweet analytics
- Returns: impressions, likes, retweets, replies, quotes
- Uses OAuth 2.0

2. Workflow Integration ✅

File: src/workflows/socials/publish-post.ts

Twitter support added to existing workflow:

// In resolveTokensStep - add Twitter handling
if (providerName === "twitter" || providerName === "x") {
  // Extract OAuth 1.0a credentials from platform api_config
  const oauth1 = (platform as any).api_config?.oauth1_credentials
  if (!oauth1) {
    throw new MedusaError(
      MedusaError.Types.INVALID_DATA,
      "Twitter requires OAuth 1.0a credentials for media upload"
    )
  }
  
  return new StepResponse({ 
    providerName, 
    accessToken: userAccessToken,
    oauth1Credentials: {
      apiKey: this.config.apiKey,
      apiSecret: this.config.apiSecret,
      accessToken: oauth1.access_token,
      accessTokenSecret: oauth1.access_token_secret,
    }
  })
}

// In publishStep - add Twitter publishing
if (input.providerName === "twitter" || input.providerName === "x") {
  const twitter = new TwitterService()
  const results: any[] = []
  
  const imageUrls = attachments
    .filter((a) => a && a.type === "image" && a.url)
    .map((a) => a.url)
  
  const videoUrl = attachments.find((a) => a && a.type === "video" && a.url)?.url
  
  const result = await twitter.publishTweetWithMedia(
    {
      text: message || "",
      imageUrls: imageUrls.length > 0 ? imageUrls : undefined,
      videoUrl,
    },
    input.accessToken!,
    input.oauth1Credentials!
  )
  
  results.push({
    kind: "tweet",
    tweetId: result.tweetId,
    tweetUrl: result.tweetUrl,
    response: result,
  })
  
  return new StepResponse(results)
}

3. API Endpoint Updates ✅

File: src/api/admin/social-posts/[id]/publish/route.ts

Twitter validation added:

// After loading platform
const platformName = (platform.name || "").toLowerCase()

if (platformName === "twitter" || platformName === "x") {
  // Validate OAuth 1.0a credentials
  const oauth1 = apiConfig.oauth1_credentials
  if (!oauth1?.access_token || !oauth1?.access_token_secret) {
    throw new MedusaError(
      MedusaError.Types.INVALID_DATA,
      "Twitter requires OAuth 1.0a credentials. Please re-authenticate."
    )
  }
  
  // Twitter character limit
  if (caption && caption.length > 280) {
    throw new MedusaError(
      MedusaError.Types.INVALID_DATA,
      `Tweet text exceeds 280 characters (${caption.length})`
    )
  }
  
  // Twitter media limits
  if (imageAttachments.length > 4) {
    throw new MedusaError(
      MedusaError.Types.INVALID_DATA,
      "Twitter supports maximum 4 images per tweet"
    )
  }
}

🔄 Next Steps

Phase 1: OAuth 1.0a Credentials Storage (High Priority)

Update OAuth callback handler:

File: src/api/admin/oauth/[platform]/callback/route.ts

After exchanging OAuth 2.0 code for token, also store OAuth 1.0a credentials:

if (platform === "twitter" || platform === "x") {
  // Store both OAuth 2.0 and OAuth 1.0a credentials
  const updatedPlatform = await socials.updateSocialPlatforms([{
    selector: { id: platformId },
    data: {
      api_config: {
        ...existingConfig,
        access_token: tokenData.access_token,
        refresh_token: tokenData.refresh_token,
        expires_at: Date.now() + (tokenData.expires_in * 1000),
        
        // Add OAuth 1.0a credentials
        oauth1_credentials: {
          access_token: process.env.X_API_KEY,
          access_token_secret: process.env.X_API_SECRET,
        }
      }
    }
  }])
}

Phase 2: Type Definitions (Low Priority)

File: src/modules/social-provider/types.ts

Add Twitter-specific types:

export interface TwitterPublishResult {
  platform: "twitter"
  success: boolean
  tweetId?: string
  tweetUrl?: string
  error?: string
}

export interface TwitterMetrics {
  impressions?: number
  likes: number
  retweets: number
  replies: number
  quotes: number
  last_updated: string
}

Update Platform type:

export type Platform = "facebook" | "instagram" | "twitter" | "both"

Phase 3: Insights Tracking (Low Priority)

Create workflow: src/workflows/socials/fetch-twitter-insights.ts

export const fetchTwitterInsightsWorkflow = createWorkflow(
  "fetch-twitter-insights",
  function (input: WorkflowData<{ post_id: string }>) {
    const post = loadPostStep(input)
    const metrics = fetchMetricsStep(post)
    const updated = updateInsightsStep({ post, metrics })
    return new WorkflowResponse(updated)
  }
)

Phase 4: Testing (High Priority)

Create integration test: integration-tests/http/twitter-publish.spec.ts

describe("Twitter Publishing", () => {
  let twitterPlatform
  let twitterPost
  
  beforeEach(async () => {
    // Create Twitter platform with OAuth credentials
    twitterPlatform = await createTwitterPlatform()
    
    // Create post with text and image
    twitterPost = await createSocialPost({
      platform_id: twitterPlatform.id,
      caption: "Test tweet from integration test",
      media_attachments: [{
        type: "image",
        url: "https://example.com/test-image.jpg"
      }]
    })
  })
  
  it("should publish tweet with text only", async () => {
    const response = await api.post(
      `/admin/social-posts/${twitterPost.id}/publish`,
      {},
      { headers: adminHeaders }
    )
    
    expect(response.status).toBe(200)
    expect(response.data.success).toBe(true)
    expect(response.data.post.status).toBe("posted")
    expect(response.data.post.post_url).toContain("twitter.com")
  })
  
  it("should publish tweet with image", async () => {
    // Test implementation
  })
  
  it("should fetch tweet metrics", async () => {
    // Test implementation
  })
})

📋 Environment Variables Required

Add to .env:

# OAuth 2.0 (for creating tweets)
X_CLIENT_ID=your_client_id_here
X_CLIENT_SECRET=your_client_secret_here

# OAuth 1.0a (for media uploads)
X_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
X_API_SECRET=your_api_secret_here

🎯 Testing Checklist

🔍 Known Limitations

Media Upload API
- Uses v1.1 API (requires OAuth 1.0a)
- Separate from tweet creation (v2 API)
- Requires both OAuth flows
Rate Limits
- Free tier: 1,500 tweets/month
- Media uploads count toward tweet limit
Webhooks
- Not available in free tier
- Would require paid API access for real-time insights
Video Uploads
- Large videos require chunked upload
- Current implementation supports small videos only
- May need enhancement for production use

# Add Twitter credentials

Authenticate Platform

# Visit OAuth URL
GET /api/admin/oauth/twitter

# Complete OAuth flow
# Credentials stored in platform.api_config

Create and Publish Post

# Create post
POST /api/admin/social-posts
{
  "platform_id": "twitter_platform_id",
  "caption": "Hello Twitter!",
  "media_attachments": [{
