Tweet from authenticated logged in twitter user

I have a web app where people can log in through Twitter and by doing so authenticate the app to tweet on their behalf, I want to do this.

But the problem is that I cannot find any endpoints in the twitter API that would facilitate this,

I'm able to tweet from my own app using the Twitter npm package but I can't find a parameter to pass something like a user ID to tweet from a different twitter account using my App.

Do you maybe need the OAUTH token and secret to do this?

The solution is to have people sign in on your web page and get their tokenSecret and token from the login, put those in the place where the access_token_key and access_token_secret usually go when tweeting and send a regular statuses/update/ POST request.
