I was wondering if there was a way to get this to update twitter when a node was made with Feed API
I have FeedAPI set to make stories and it works upon creating a story manually but if i use Feed API it does not update twitter.

Have you tried creating a Twitter action... and then creating a post content trigger? I'm not sure if that trigger fires when the API is used. Maybe it doesn't which is why this doesn't work. I am trying to solve the same problem... but may just end up using twitterfeed.
Actually, I just did this and it seems to work.
Now, I wonder if I will get a double posting is I post locally. Yes... it does. I had to turn of the twitter setup... and still it defaults to post when I blog as admin... but, I will be doing most all blogging with the API so not a big deal.
