I still can't see this web part on our tenant, any news on where this is in terms of rollout? Most of the other web parts announced at the same time are now visible, but really want to be able to make use of this.

 

For those that do have it available, does it only let you embed a specific feed from 1 Twitter handle, or are you able to embed a Twitter 'List'? Our organisation has multiple brands with their own Twitter handles so we created a Twitter list to aggregate them into one feed, would be good to be able to embed this on our intranet homepage.

Hi Sean, This web part is still in development but due this month per the Office 365 Roadmap: SharePoint web part: Twitter Site members will now be able to showcase Twitter feeds and individual tweets right inside SharePoint pages and news. It simple to add the Twitter web part within the layout, and then plug in the desired Twitter feed, search criteria or individual tweets. Estimated Release: February CY2018 Feature ID: 21051 Added to Roadmap: 09/13/2017 Last modified : 02/13/2018 Hope the description helps you out. FYI I’m not sure anyone has this part yet outside Microsoft :-)

    Hi John Wynne and Sean Whyment,

     

    Did you get the Twitter web part yet?

    From what I can see on the road map; searching for 21051 gives me one update in the group:Fully released updates that are now generally available for applicable customers

     

    That should mean that it should be available for me, but I am unable to see it.

    I am hoping for your help :-)

    Thanks.

     

    Best regards,

      Hi Marlene, The Twitter web part has been available for a little while now. My tenant is in Targeted Release so I may see functionality not yet in production. Hopefully someone with a tenant in production can check to see if the Twitter web part is available. If you are not an admin you could ask to be put into Targeted Release for Selected Users. Hope this helps!

        Hi John Wynne,

        I have a question, I hope for your help answering. I actually found the twitter web part and configured it and it worked nicely :-) I found it on my private test site. The path for that site is XXXXX/teams/MaleneTEST/SitePages/Home.aspx so I was happy.

        Today I tried to add the web part to our Intranet. The path for the site is XXXXXX/sites/Intranet/SitePages/Home.aspx

        The web part is not visible on the intranet site, but it still is on my test site. Does the teams or sites in the url have any impact on the visibility of the web part? Or am I missing something? I have added twitter.com to the html security in the Intranet settings.

        Thanks in advance.

         

        Best regards,

         

        Malene
