To use Twitter in your workflow, you will first need to connect it with Built.io Flow.

To do this, drag any Twitter action listed under Twitter service on the canvas. In case of configuring Twitter triggers, double-click the Start icon on your canvas and select Twitter service. Then, click on the Add New option listed under the Authorize to Twitter field in the configuration window.  If you are not logged-in to your Twitter account, you will be prompted to do so authorizing Built.io Flow.
