Does Twitter supports using the Auto Share plugin

    Hello,

    I’ve been looking for a means to share my blog posts automatically since the new updates on Twitter.

    Couple auto share plugins I found could only share few posts in a day/month. Luckily, I found this plugin and it’s been working perfectly without limitations.

    Unfortunately, I found out I’ve been shadow banned on Twitter. Although I don’t know when or why, I started looking into the issue. I’d stopped posting for now to see if the shadownban will be lifted. I went through their policy page and read on automation rules.

    I found this ‘Don’t abuse the Twitter API or attempt to circumvent rate limits.’

    Now I’m bothered if bypassing the API 2 monthly limit on a free account level by using this auto share plugin is legal or Twitter frowns at such. As we all know, they require one to upgrade by making payment to get more auto publishing access in the new API.

    I’ll love you to shed light on this to know if this practices violated Twitter rules… by bypassing the monthly rate limit with this plugin.

    Thank you.

    Hi @peterdredd,

    Thank you for reaching out to us.

    This plugin relies on the Twitter API to facilitate the automatic sharing of your blog posts, It’s essential to note that Twitter imposes usage limits on its API. With Twitter’s Free API access, you are allowed 1,500 Tweets per month and 50 requests within a 24-hour period. Exceeding these limits will result in receiving a “429: Too Many Requests” error from the Twitter API.

    To ensure compliance with Twitter’s policies and to accommodate your needs if they exceed the Free API limits, we recommend considering a subscription to either the Basic or Pro access level. These access levels provide increased quotas and additional benefits to accommodate your needs. You can find detailed information on Twitter API access levels by visiting this link: https://developer.twitter.com/en/products/twitter-api.

    Best regards
