Quick replies

Quick replies let businesses prompt people with the best ways to reply to a Direct Message, whether by choosing from a list of options or guiding users to enter specific text values.

Read the original Twitter docs

Types of quick replies

1. Options List: List of up to 20 predefined options presented for a user to choose from.
2. Location: Present an interactive map to the user to request their location.
3. Text Input: A text field with custom label to guide a user’s text input.

Options List

The options list behaves similarly to other buttons on other messaging platforms. It can be used for start or transition type buttons (link buttons are not supported).

Twitter supports an optional description field not common to other messaging channels.
