Twitter api - is it possible to post a thread?

Question

I have a Twitter bot that posts short bits of text that are sometimes over the character limit for one tweet. When it is over the limit I would like to have the bot post the full text as several tweets organized as a thread. I don't see any documentation in their API docs for doing this. Any ideas for how to accomplish this?

My bot is written in PHP and uses this class: https://github.com/J7mbo/twitter-api-php

Answer 1

It may not (ever?) be available, per this thread: Is there any api update for tweet thread(storm) feature which recently released in twitter?

I've done several Google searches on the topic and have not found a single article that shows how to use the API to create multi-tweet threads. Similar searches in the API documentation turned up nothing. I have so many good ideas for how to make use of such a feature, which is probably why it doesn't exist...it also has too much potential for abuse.
