Follow these steps to connect X post (tweet), send from Next.js, and track delivery.

Connect your platform

Connect your X account to yeetpost:

Go to app.yeetpost.com
Click Add connection and select X (Twitter)
Authenticate with your X account

Your connection slug

Paste your connection slug here and we'll auto-fill it into the code examples below.

Get your API key

Get your API key from the yeetpost dashboard:

Go to app.yeetpost.com/app/settings
Copy your API key

Your API key

Paste your API key here and we'll auto-fill it into the code examples below.

Send your post

Install the yeetpost package:

npm install yeetpost

Set your API key as an environment variable in .env.local. Keep it out of any name that starts with NEXT_PUBLIC_, because those are inlined into the browser bundle:

YEETPOST_API_KEY=<your-api-key>

Send the post from a route handler, a server action or a scheduled job, never from a client component:

// app/api/announce/route.ts
import { yeetpost } from "yeetpost";

export async function POST(request: Request) {
  const { text } = await request.json();

  await yeetpost({
    connection: "<your-connection-slug>",
    text,
  });

  return Response.json({ ok: true });
}

Deploying on Vercel? Add YEETPOST_API_KEY under Project Settings, Environment Variables, so the server build has it as well as your machine.

Track your posts

Monitor all your posts from the yeetpost dashboard:

Go to the Feed tab in the yeetpost dashboard
View all posts sent via yeetpost, including status and timestamps
