Behavior

The amp-twitter component allows you to embed a Tweet or Moment.

Here's an example of a basic embedded Tweet:

<amp-twitter
  width="375"
  height="472"
  layout="responsive"
  data-tweetid="885634330868850689"
>
</amp-twitter>

Standalone use outside valid AMP documents

Bento allows you to use AMP components in non-AMP pages without needing to commit to fully valid AMP. You can take these components and place them in implementations with frameworks and CMSs that don't support AMP. Read more in our guide Use AMP components in non-AMP pages.

To find the standalone version of amp-twitter, see bento-twitter.

Appearance

Twitter does not currently provide an API that yields fixed aspect ratio for embedded Tweets or Moments. Currently, AMP automatically proportionally scales the Tweet or Moment to fit the provided size, but this may yield less than ideal appearance. You might need to manually tweak the provided width and height. Also, you can use the media attribute to select the aspect ratio based on the screen width.

Placeholders & fallbacks

An element marked with a placeholder attribute displays while the content for the Tweet or Moment is loading or initializing. Placeholders are hidden once the AMP component's content displays. An element marked with a fallback attribute displays if amp-twitter isn't supported by the browser or if the Tweet or Moment doesn't exist or has been deleted.

Visit the Placeholders & fallbacks guide to learn more about how placeholders and fallbacks interact for the amp-twitter component.

Example: Specifying a placeholder

<amp-twitter
  width="375"
  height="472"
  layout="responsive"
  data-tweetid="638793490521001985"
>
  <blockquote placeholder>
    <p>
      I only needed to change some CSS.
