The n8n X (Twitter) integration connects seamlessly to X's API, enabling bidirectional data flow and action triggering without coding expertise.
Key Technical Capabilities:

- Triggers: Automatically initiate workflows based on mentions, hashtags, or DMs
- Actions: Post tweets, reply to mentions, send direct messages, follow users
