Using the Twitter Component

Twitter is one of the components available from the palette on a related content pane. This component enables you to view, for example, the Twitter feed of your top accounts.

As a prerequisite you need a custom field, for example with data type "Text" and with the Field Label "Twitter". Add this to an object definition, for example the Account object.

To set up the Twitter feed:

  1. On the account record enter the Twitter handle that you want to follow.
  2. On the Related Content Pane Editor - New page, configure the Twitter component:
    1. Enter a Label name.
    2. Select the field that is the Twitter handle.
  3. Click Apply, then Save and Run.

When you launch your runtime related content pane and select your driving record, you can then see your Twitter feed.

Note:

You can change the Twitter feed on the related content pane at runtime if you add a single field, select the Twitter handle, and make it editable.
