Turn a source into X Premium posts
Prepare a sourced long post for X Premium and a short-post alternative. Choose manual publication or an official API workflow after checking the account, format and separate usage costs.
Official sources: 5 · Hands-on test not recorded
What you will make
One long-post draft, three short-post alternatives and a reviewed publication queue
Illustrative result
A product release becomes an evidence-led long post plus three separate posts about the problem, the change and its limits.
What you need
- Your own article or release notes, with working source links
- An X account; a subscription that supports longer posts for that format
- ChatGPT; an authorized developer app only if you choose API publication

Repeat this workflow with automation
Optional publication through the official API
Automate evidence sorting, draft creation and queue preparation. Publish only through an authorized official API integration; use the native composer when the chosen long-post format is not supported by that integration.
Before connecting automation
- Register your developer app, authorize the posting account and confirm write permissions and current format support.
- Set an API spending limit and store credentials in the integration secret store, never in prompts or the publication queue.
- Deduplicate by account, draft version and content hash; save the returned post ID before advancing a series.
Fields to keep in your publication queue
Channel and account · Source URL and checked date · Draft version and content hash · Reviewer and approval scope · Publish time and timezone · Status and published URL · Observed results
When to stop and review
- Stop on a changed draft, expired authorization, rejected format, rate limit or exhausted budget.
- If publication times out without a post ID, reconcile the account and queue before retrying; do not blindly repost.
