Filter accounts from list

Post by nsxbl28 »

Good morning!

I have a list with 1000 Twitter accounts and I want to get a text file with these filtered. For example, which of these accounts have more than 2000 followings, or which of them are verified.

What I have tried:
0) In the Scraper tab
1) Custom Search -> "A User Id or Url" (I don't see what other Options could be)
2) Scrape profiles field -> Filepath with the users' username/url (I have tried both)
3) Filter set: whatever conditions set. For instance, "Only verified"
4) Click "Scrape Profiles"

What I get is an exact copy of the input file. What am I doing wrong?

By the way, in Instadub I can select multiple accounts to scrape, but not in Twitterdub. Is there a reason why I can't share the same scrape action on multiple accounts to speed up the process?

Thanks!

Hello Martin,

I am receiving an error when I try what I told you in my previous message, after installing the testing version on a new computer (so there aren't interferences with the normal version). The error that I get is "Referencia a objeto no establecida como instancia de un objeto", which in English is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object". I have tried to do another Scrape action, like scrapping the followings of some random account and it works, so the problem should be in the concrete action of filtering accounts from the list. Do you know what could be the problem? Thanks!

I copy/paste the log:
