Twitter Skill will search the tweets of all Twitter users specified by the configuration for the phrase used by the end-user. End-users can request more tweets, or go back, or ask to view one of them again. Tweets with images are displayed when the user views them. If there are links in the tweet, they are clickable but removed when reading.

Prerequisites
For you to take advantage of the Twitter skill, your user interface must support cards or be able to capture and interpret @commands and make use of the variables included in the response JSON. This is built into the default theme but would require custom frontend development if you are using custom UI. If card support is not supported, you should set the Max Number Of Tweets To Return setting to 1 so the Digital Person will just read the first tweet rather than asking for which you want to view.
