Hi @oblique dragon , you need to complete Auth flow for each connection. However, seems like you've shared an Image of Twitter and Twitter media Toolkits not your Auth configs. I'm assuming you want to create a post with media, in this case, you need Authenticate with both the toolkits.
Flow: create Auth configs> connections> upload media> used media Ids to create the post.

sorry for being vague, yeah, i do want to create a post with media, and my question was why do i need to Authenticate for both toolkits, shouldn't twitter include twitter media?

Hey! Previously, Twitter’s v2 APIs didn’t allow media uploads, so we had to rely on the v1 APIs, which meant dealing with OAuth 1 for authentication. The good news is, Twitter recently rolled out support for media uploads directly in v2. We’re planning to add this to the toolkit soon, so you won’t need to use the old Twitter Media Toolkit anymore.

any ETA of the new media uploading tool in v2?

hey! the media functionality is now in the twitter app and media is now deprecated.
