# Twist node

Use the Twist node to automate work in Twist, and integrate Twist with other applications. n8n has built-in support for a wide range of Twist features, including creating conversations in a channel, as well as creating and deleting comments on a thread. 

On this page, you'll find a list of operations the Twist node supports and links to more resources.

## Get the User ID

To get the User ID for a user:

1. Open the **Team** tab.
2. Select a user's avatar.
3. Copy the string of characters located after `/u/` in your Twist URL. This string is the User ID. For example, if the URL is `https://twist.com/a/4qw45/people/u/475370` the User ID is `475370`.
