Twitter

Important Note:

Twitter requires that every domain is approved by them.
The Twitter approval process includes testing the experience across various platforms, as well as re-validating it periodically.
More information and how this can be done can be found here.

The Twitter module enables metadata tags such that the thumbnail, entry name, and other metadata tags can be posted in the Tweet. Without this module enabled, only the KMS link will be posted because Twitter can’t pick-up the metadata.

The player id (tPlayerId) set in the module is for the player used in th Tweet. Using this player, the video can be embedded in the Tweet and played from there.

For information on how to setup the player for viewing Twitter media in MediaSpace, please see Setting up Twitter share for MediaSpace for Admins.
