You can follow specific hashtags on Twitter and see the tweets within the
|
|
Odoo Discuss channels of your choice. The tweets are retrieved periodically from Twitter.
|
|
An authenticated user can retweet the messages.
|
|
|
|
Setting up the App on Twitter's side
|
|
====================================
|
|
|
|
Twitter uses an "App" on its side which is opens a gate to which Odoo asks for
|
|
tweets, and through which a user can retweet.
|
|
To set up this app, go to http://apps.twitter.com/app/new and put in the values:
|
|
|
|
- Name: this is the name of the application on Twitter
|
|
|
|
- Website: this is the external url of your Odoo database, with "/web" added.
|
|
For example, if your Odoo instance is hosted at "http://www.example.com", you
|
|
should put "http://www.example.com/web" in this field.
|
|
|
|
- Callback URL: this is the address on which Twitter will respond. Following the
|
|
previous example you should write "http://www.example.com/web/twitter/callback".
|
|
|
|
Do not forget to accept the terms **Developer agreement** of use and click on
|
|
**Create your Twitter application** at the bottom of the page.
|
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
==============================
