UmbracoCms.Plugins.Tweets

Twitter/X feed display plugin for Umbraco 13 (net8.0) and Umbraco 17 (net10.0). Fetches tweets via Twitter API v2, caches them locally in SQL Server, and renders styled tweet cards in Razor views or the backoffice dashboard.

Features

  • Fetches tweets using Twitter API v2 Bearer Token (OAuth 2.0)
  • Caches tweets in a local CachedTweets SQL table (avoids rate limits on page load)
  • Configurable maximum tweets count and refresh interval
  • Backoffice dashboard with tweet feed preview and manual refresh trigger
  • View component for embedding the feed in Razor views
  • Umbraco 17 dashboard (Lit 3) and Umbraco 13 dashboard (AngularJS)

Configuration

Add to appsettings.json:

{
  "UmbracoCms": {
    "Tweets": {
      "BearerToken": "YOUR_TWITTER_API_V2_BEARER_TOKEN",
      "TwitterHandle": "YourHandle",
      "MaxTweets": 10,
      "RefreshIntervalMinutes": 60,
      "CacheEnabled": true
    }
  }
}

Important: Keep the Bearer Token out of source control. Use environment variables or appsettings.Production.json (excluded from git) in production.

Embedding the Feed

@* Default (uses MaxTweets from config) *@
@await Component.InvokeAsync("Tweets")

@* Limit to 5 tweets on a sidebar *@
@await Component.InvokeAsync("Tweets", new { maxItems = 5 })

API Endpoints

Method Path Description
GET /umbraco/api/tweets/feed Return cached tweets
POST /umbraco/api/tweets/refresh Trigger a live API refresh

Database Table

CachedTweets — stores tweet content, author info, engagement metrics, and cache timestamp. Run migrations or context.Database.EnsureCreated() on startup.

Notes on Twitter API v2

  • A Twitter/X Developer account and App are required.
  • The free tier allows read access to public tweets for owned accounts.
  • The plugin handles the case where BearerToken or TwitterHandle is not configured by logging a warning and returning the current cache without error.
