Example publishing a tweet with preview

[isaacrlevin]

I am trying to publish a tweet that contains a shorted nurl (http://foo.com/123) that represents a seperate url. When I publish, the preview information is not being shown on the tweet, just the shortened url. I have tried to find a way to embed the original url in there, in hopes that Twitter will preview that url, but have had no luck. Is there an easy sample to do this?

Hello there,

What do you mean by publishing a tweet with preview?

First example here

Hello there,

I can look into it further but I have not yet found anything in the documentation that would suggest how to configure this "preview".

This feature (if supported by API 1.1) will be done in next version.

Cheers,

It seems like you just need a url object to entities

The link you provide is the json returned by Twitter for a tweet.
The main question is to figure out how to "POST" a tweet similar to this.

You can find the documentation here : https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/tweets/post-and-engage/api-reference/post-statuses-update

But nothing mentions this feature.
I will speak with Twitter staff to see if the documentation has not been updated but as I mentioned I cannot make this a priority right now.

Did you ever have a chance to chat with Twitter? If it is easy, I might be able to do a pr

Hello there,

Unfortunately I did not yet have time to mention this limitation to twitter.

You can do so here : https://twittercommunity.com/

If you want to do a PR I will be more than happy to look at it.
Though would you please create it against Tweetinvi 5.0 which is now available in the master branch.

Thanks,
Linvi
