X (Twitter) channel

Direct messages on X, in your support inbox

Customers often move from a public post to a direct message when they need help with an account or an order. Connect your X account and those DMs arrive in Frosvo for your team to answer.

Why bring X (Twitter) into a shared inbox

Answering DMs from the X app ties support to whoever holds the login. In a shared inbox the conversation has an owner, the history stays with the customer, and replies come from your brand account without sharing its password.

How X (Twitter) works in Frosvo

  • Account Activity webhook

    Frosvo receives DMs through X's Account Activity API, using your app's keys with Direct Messages permission.

  • Room to explain

    Replies up to 10,000 characters.

  • Team workflow

    Assignment, notes, tags and saved replies, like every other channel.
