How to Connect Your X Account to OpenTweet
Last updated: April 10, 2026
Connecting your X account to OpenTweet is a one-time OAuth process that takes under a minute. OpenTweet never stores your X password — it uses secure OAuth tokens to post on your behalf.
What permissions does OpenTweet need?
OpenTweet requests read and write access to your X account. This allows posting tweets, reading your profile information, and checking the status of scheduled posts. OpenTweet does not request access to your direct messages, contacts, or any private data beyond what's necessary for scheduling and posting.
How do I reconnect a disconnected account?
X OAuth tokens can expire or be revoked if you change your X password or manually revoke app access from X's connected apps settings. If your account shows as disconnected, go to Settings → X Account and click "Reconnect". This runs the OAuth flow again and restores your connection. All previously scheduled tweets will resume posting after reconnection.
How many X accounts can I manage?
The number of X accounts you can connect depends on your plan: Pro allows 1 account, Advanced allows up to 3, and Agency allows up to 10. Add additional accounts from Settings → X Accounts. Each account has its own independent post queue, connectors, evergreen pool, and analytics.
