Frequently Asked Questions
Video length limit?+
Standard accounts post up to 140 seconds; Premium accounts up to ~4 hours. The API returns MEDIA_TOO_LONG if exceeded.
Why did my media fail to attach?+
X requires media processing to finish before the post. The job polls processing status — retry the job if it timed out.
Best practices
- Keep clips under 140 seconds to work on any account tier.
- Front-load the hook — X truncates text after 280 characters.
