Step 1: Create an Account and Key

  1. Sign up or log in at twitterapi.io (or the provider’s current console URL).
  2. Open Dashboard / API Keys / Credentials.
  3. Generate a new API key and copy it.
Storing credentials:
pnpm corsair setup --plugin=twitterapiio api_key=your-api-key

If you enable webhooks from TwitterAPI.io to your application, configure the signing secret the service provides for verifying requests (for example headers such as x-twitterapiio-signature). Storing credentials:
