Connect X

Publish approved posts to X and see how they perform.

Before you start

An X account you can sign in to. Sprid handles the developer connection.

Connect to Sprid

Run in your terminal
sprid connect x --account <slug>

Replace <slug> with your Sprid account slug.

Set it up

  1. Sign in to the X account you want to use.
  2. Review the requested access and click Authorize app.
  3. Back in Sprid, check the connected handle.

Check the connection

Run sprid status and confirm the handle. After publishing a reviewed post, check it on X.

The caption is its own field

The X caption has a 280-character limit. Left empty, it uses your shared caption, which must then fit too. Carousels over four images publish as a thread, with the caption on the first post.

If something goes wrong
  • Connection expired or refresh failed: run the connect command again.
  • Access denied after reconnecting: send the error to Sprid support.
  • Publishing limit reached: check the post’s status and retry when the limit resets.
Investigate with this connection

Operations posts and comments, read from Sprid’s stored publishes, metric snapshots and inbox (no live platform read; missing metrics are unmeasured, not zero).

Run in your terminal
sprid marketing-review capabilities --app <slug> --source x --json
