How to use Twitter API to tweet to a specific audience. (ie. their new community feature)

Question

We use the Twitter API to post to our Twitter feed. Under the audience selection there is the option to choose "Everyone" or to choose a different audience, including "communities" that you are a part of. How do I post to twitter under one of those communities and not to the general feed when using the API?'

Looking at this, I am not seeing any parameter for it. https://developer.twitter.com/en/docs/twitter-api/tweets/manage-tweets/api-reference/post-tweets

See these images for more of an understanding of the options available in the tweet. It must be a single added parameter to the POST payload....if they offer this as an option. (I would think they would).

Any ideas?

Thank you for your response Andy. Do you know if it is on the road map? – brando May 21 '22 at 17:54
Yes, but since the Communities feature is relatively new, it is not top of the list at the moment. – Andy Piper May 22 '22 at 22:20
