<Update label="Sep 24, 2026" description="X API v2 and Livestream API">
### New features

- **OAuth 2.0 webhook signatures.** Webhook deliveries now include an `X-Twitter-Webhooks-Signature-OAuth2` header signed with your app's OAuth 2.0 client secret. You can also generate CRC `response_token` values with the same secret. The legacy `X-Twitter-Webhooks-Signature` header still works for OAuth 1.0 integrations. See [Signature headers](/x-api/webhooks/introduction#signature-headers).
- **Expiring X Activity API subscriptions.** Pass an optional `expires_at` timestamp when you create a subscription, and X deletes it automatically at that time. To change the expiration, send the same subscription again with a new `expires_at`. See [Subscription expiration](/x-api/activity/introduction#subscription-expiration).
- **Livestream API access form.** You can now request Livestream API access through a dedicated form. Livestream API source and broadcast endpoints are available by approval only. See [Livestream API access form](/forms/livestream-api-access).

### Updates

- **`is_moderator` on `broadcast.chat` events.** The [`broadcast.chat`](/x-api/activity/event-payloads#broadcast-chat) payload now shows whether the chat author is a moderator. The broadcast owner appears as `is_moderator: false` in their own broadcast.
- **Broadcast scopes in OAuth 1.0a token exchange.** Tokens you exchange from OAuth 1.0a now include `broadcast.read` for read access, and `broadcast.write` too for read and write access. See [Migrating OAuth 1.0a user tokens to OAuth 2.0](/fundamentals/authentication/oauth-2-0/oauth-1-0a-token-exchange).
- **`source` removed from `tweet.fields`.** X API v2 no longer supports the deprecated `source` field. Remove it from your `tweet.fields` requests. See [Post lookup fields](/x-api/posts/lookup/integrate).
