Google Sheets Twitter Reader

Google Sheets are a convenient way to share, collaborate and manage Twitter content. Chameleon’s Google Sheets Twitter Reader allows users to list Tweets on a Google Sheet. Users can use the Google Sheet to customize the order of the Tweets or edit the list. The Google Sheet is then read and made available for playout as Tweets.

To start, build a regular Google Spreadsheet and enter the Twitter URLs for the content you wish to include and mange. Each Tab will represent a different Twitter Playlist. In this example the Playlist will be titled “Test Tweets”.

Users can create an unlimited number of Tabs/Playlists

Open

Once the URL of the Google Sheet is loaded into the Google Sheet Twitter Reader, the reader will map the Google Sheet into the Twitter Module and make it available as a Twitter Playlist.

Reminder that the name of the Playlist will correspond to the name of the Tab(s) on the Google Sheet. Select the Playlist from the Choose Playlist drop-down. The Twitter URLs on the Google Sheet will be available for playout.

Open

As users edit or reorder the list of Tweets on the Google Sheet, the Playlist will automatically sync and match the changes.
