Direct answer
A Twitter/X webhook API workflow can be built on top of TweetStream by consuming WebSocket events and fanning out signed webhook requests.
Webhook fanout shape
Webhooks are a delivery pattern. TweetStream can be the source feed, while your service handles webhook fanout to internal or customer endpoints.
- Consume events once from TweetStream
- Normalize and filter payloads
- Sign outgoing webhook requests
- Retry with backoff and dead-letter failures
When to use each
Use WebSocket for the source-of-truth stream and webhooks for downstream systems that prefer request/response delivery.
Run this workflow with TweetStream
Raw APIs, polling, and custom scraping can also power this workflow. TweetStream puts fast delivery, delete and pin alerts, profile and follow signals, token and OCR enrichment, and WebSocket events in one feed.
