# Twitter

### Access the Twitter App Console

* Navigate to the [Twitter Developer Platform](https://developer.twitter.com/en) and sign up if you haven't already.
* You might be required to apply for a developer account where you'll need to provide some information about your intended use of Twitter’s API.

### Create OAuth app

* After logging in to your Twitter Developer account, navigate to the [Developer Dashboard](https://developer.twitter.com/en/portal/dashboard).
* Twitter should automatically create a default project and application for you. If it doesn't, click "Create Project" and follow the prompts to set up a new one. After creating the project, you'll be able to create an application. Navigate to your project and select "Add App."
* Update application details, such as the name, description, and icon, by clicking the "Edit" button. Next, configure the authentication settings.
