Source parameter

[daniel.wi...@gmail.com]

I'd like to set the source parameter in tweets. It seems only some
values will work, with others defaulting to web. How can I add my own
app-name to the list of valid parameters?

You can add source parameter in tweet by requesting to add source value and where it should be linked. Once it is accepted by twitter then they will add source value and its link in their database.

 

You should be able to upload your tweet with source=<you app> and it will appear on all tweets updated through your app.

What's the expected timeline for this process? Submitted a request
yesterday, and so far testing has shown that it's not been accepted
yet. our app name is 'smart.fm'.

Also, how will we hear about the outcome of the application.. direct
message from twitter? e-mail? just test until it works?

Thanks
Gee

Gee,
You will receive an email with our decision. The timeline varies by our workload because we do manually look at and consider each request. You should expect to hear from use within a few days of your request. Thank you for your patience.
