Hi there @fashionmode365,

Welcome to the Community! 🎉

Unfortunately, our Twitter integration was deprecated on the 31st of August due to Twitter's change in its API policy. You can read more about that change as well as some FAQs at this link: https://zapier.com/l/twitter-integration-faq
 
While you can no longer use the Twitter integration, any Zaps using it will stay in Read-Only mode until the 30th of September at which time the Zap will no longer be accessible. I would recommend before that time replacing the Twitter step with another app or at least deleting the Twitter step from that Zap.

Here are the other details about the removal of the Twitter integration in Zapier:

  • Users will not be able to create new Zaps as of August 18th.
  • Zaps using Twitter will continue to function until the deprecation date of August 31st.
  • Users can access their Zaps using Twitter in view-only mode until September 30.

In order to keep using Twitter in your workflows, here are some suggestions:

If you are looking for a more custom solution, we do have a Zapier Experts program where you can get in touch with someone who can help set up Zaps. They may have other ideas to help support your Twitter-powered apps as well: https://zapier.com/experts/ 

Hopefully, this helps.
