Description
Who’s it for Social media managers, creators, and brand accounts that rely on retweets for reach but want an automated, hands-off cleanup after campaigns to keep profiles tidy and on-brand. What it does / How it works On a schedule, the workflow resolves your handle to a user ID, fetches recent tweets, filters retweets only , and safely unretweets them using batching and delays to respect rate limits. A dedicated CONFIG (Set Fields) node centralizes variables (e.g., target_username , max_results , batch_delay_minutes ) so you can adjust behavior without touching logic. API endpoints used GET /2/users/by/username/{username} – resolve handle → user ID GET /2/users/{id}/tweets?tweet.fields=created_at,referenced_tweets – fetch recent tweets (identify retweets via referenced_tweets.type === "retweeted" ) DELETE /2/users/{id}/retweets/{tweet_id} – unretweet Example response payloads GET /2/users/by/username/{username} { "data": { "id": "2244994945", "name": "Twitter Dev", "username": "TwitterDev" } } GET /2/users/{id}/tweets (truncated) { "data": [ { "id": "1760000000000000000", "text": "RT @someone: …", "referenced_tweets": [{ "type": "retweeted", "id": "1759999999999999999" }], "created_at": "2025-01-15T09:10:11.000Z" } ], "meta": { "result_count": 20 } } DELETE /2/users/{id}/retweets/{tweet_id} { "data": { "retweeted": false } } Use cases Brand hygiene: Auto-unretweet promos after 48–72h. Campaign cadence: Remove event retweets once the event ends. Feed freshness: Clear low-priority retweets on a rolling basis. How to set up Open CONFIG (Set Fields) and replace placeholders: target_username = "your_handle" max_results = 100 (per fetch) batch_delay_minutes = 2 (throttle between batches) Connect X/Twitter credentials in n8n (no keys hard-coded in HTTP nodes). Run once with small values, verify logs, then enable the schedule. Optional enhancements: add a dead-letter path (Error Trigger → Set → Sheets/Email/Slack) and a notification node (e.g., Slack) for execution feedback.
