Twitter / X API

Twitter / X Messaging API

List conversations, read message history, and send Twitter/X direct messages programmatically. PostPeer gives you one unified endpoint and handles OAuth so you never touch the developer portal.

  • List DM conversations with participants and last message
  • Load full message history for any conversation
  • Send direct messages from one unified endpoint
  • OAuth handled, no Twitter developer app needed
No credit card required.

Everything You Need for Twitter/X DMs

Read and send direct messages without wrestling the Twitter API. List conversations, load history, and send DMs from one endpoint.

List Conversations

Fetch DM conversations for a connected Twitter/X account with each participant name, username, and profile picture, plus the most recent message and updated time.

Read Message History

Load the messages in a DM conversation, paginated, each with the sender and a timestamp. Rebuild the full thread on your side.

Send Direct Messages

Send a DM to a recipient with one call. The response returns the sent message ID so you can track delivery and reconcile it against your inbox.

OAuth Handled

Your users connect their Twitter/X account through PostPeer's OAuth flow. No developer app, no token refreshes, and no rate-limit wrangling on your side.

Build Your Own Inbox

Everything the PostPeer dashboard inbox uses is available through the API, so you can build a branded support inbox or route DMs into your own tooling.

One Endpoint Across Platforms

The Twitter/X Messages surface uses the same `/v1/messages` request and response shape as every other PostPeer messaging endpoint. One integration covers them all.
