Scheduled Auto-replies to Targeted Tweets Using X (Twitter) API

What it does

This workflow automates your X (Twitter) engagement by acting as an auto-responder. It runs on a schedule, searches for new tweets based on a specific query (like a hashtag, keyword, or mention), and automatically sends a reply.

How it works

Schedule Trigger: Runs the workflow automatically at your chosen interval (e.g., every 15 minutes). Search Tweets (HTTP): Uses the X (Twitter) API v2 to find recent tweets matching your search query. Error & Success Handling: If the search is successful, it proceeds to prepare a reply. It includes error handling for common issues like Rate Limits or if No Tweets are found. Send Reply (HTTP): Posts the reply to the tweet. Duplicate Check: Includes logic to check if a reply has already been sent to avoid spamming.

How to set up

Credentials: You must have an X (Twitter) Developer Account (v2). Add your credentials to n8n. Search Node: In the "Search Tweets" node, update the query parameter with your own search terms (e.g., #n8n or from:username). Reply Node: In the "Prepare Reply" node, customize the text you want to send. Activate: Set your desired schedule in the "Schedule Trigger" node and activate the workflow.

Requirements

An active n8n instance. An X (Twitter) Developer Account with Elevated (v2) access. X (Twitter) API v2 credentials.

How to customize the workflow

Change Schedule:** Modify the "Schedule Trigger" to run more or less frequently. Dynamic Replies:** Enhance the "Prepare Reply" node with an AI node (like OpenAI) to generate unique replies instead of static text. Add Filters:** Add an "IF" node after "Search Tweets" to filter out tweets you don't want to reply to.
