Does anyone have an example of implementing the twitter api in particular, to authenticate a user? (meaning not just the user tied to the twitter api dev account, but rather any user).
I believe there are 2 ways to do this but the main way is to send a user to [twitter.com](http://twitter.com) to log in which sends back a token. [OAuth 2.0 Bearer Token | Docs | Twitter Developer Platform](https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/authentication/oauth-2-0/)
Thanks in advance

AFAIK this doesn’t work in thunkable yet. Have you found a way? Please do share it with us, I’d love to know about it as I’ve always wanted different authentication options.

Dear @codeswept ,
Please note that @vishruth is the other account of @vishruth-ram who usually gives unrelated or untested comments.
