Twitter Web Intents

Easily start a tweet with the Twitter "mailto" equivalent

Context

In Coda, you’re able to open hyperlinks with a button:

Like this →

Open Google

⁠

=OpenWindow("www.google.com")

Or like this →

Open YouTube

⁠

=OpenWindow("www.youtube.com")

But you can also use protocol handlers like mailto: to start an email draft if you have them setup in your browser for your default mail client:

=OpenWindow("mailto:support@coda.io")

⁠

Start an email

⁠

With Twitter

And while there isn’t a generic protocol handler for Twitter (e.g. tweet:Hello world), if you want to start a tweet w/ a button or link, you can do so using

Twitter web intents⁠

ー which are URLs that look something like...

Tweet → https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?text=...

Retweet → https://twitter.com/intent/tweet?tweet_id=...

Like → https://twitter.com/intent/like?tweet_id=...

Follow a user → https://twitter.com/intent/follow?user_id=...

start a tweet
