Adding an X Channel to Swat.io

Written by Florian Triller-Windisch

This guide explains how to add an X account as a channel to your Swat.io workspace.

Info: In order to access the workspace settings or to add a new channel in Swat.io, you need permissions as "workspace manager". In case you don't have this permission, please reach out to a workspace manager or Swat.io Admin in your organization.

Add a channel

To add an X channel to Swat.io, follow these steps:

  1. Open the general "Workspace Settings" in the bottom left by clicking on your account name;

  2. There you will find the "Channels" section;

  3. In the upper right, click the "Add Channel" button;

  4. Scroll down in the "Main Channels" section and select "X";

  5. In the following pop-up, you will be asked to agree to the terms of service of Swat.io and X.

A dialog window from X will open, asking you to grant Swat.io access to your account. Confirm by clicking "Authorize app".
