Or maybe a workaround is to treat the file just like some of the other modules meaning that when we add a new "scrap tweets from a file"
just add one action and then when the action start, then process the tweet ids one by one.
THe annoying part is the waiting when I add the action, for each account. So for example if I split my file in 10 parts with each 2500 tweets,
it will take at least 5minutes to add each actions, and I have to wait that before adding the other accounts' action. I am just looking for a way to do it fast. What is taking time here is the addition of the actions in the processor because even with the actions stopped, it takes time to add them.
I did try with different pc/server, not a hardware issue.

I was talking about first scenario because I have a file of tweet ids, could be urls too but I dont think it will change something. I don't necessary need to spread them equally (if it is random, it will be almost equal anyway).
What I would like is just to select multiple accounts, and choose only one file and the actions will be created in the processor. It doesn't need to be one big action (like the shared feature), I just want to avoid doitn it one by one which takes some time and I cant use all my accounts because it is so annoying I just use 5-10 and then just wait lol

But if you want to load in a text file of search terms to add multiple scrape actions, those can be distributed across accounts easily enough. If can confirm this is adequate would be a quick 2 minute updatefaxnet wrote:Hi Martin,
In twitterDub can you please add the ability the scrape profiles from tweets using multiple accounts? I have dozens of accoutns but when I want to scrape users that interacted with some tweets, I first need to split the file in the number of accounts I want to use to scrap and then add actions one per account I have. This is taking me too much time and it will really help if in the account selector it was possible to choose multiple accounts and and "share" the scraping among those, just like it is done right now for the follow action for example.
