Hi there, if is here someone who is actively using CONTACT TOOL, I would need your help.
Since we probably have to switch to API emulation, there is one thing missing. It is not possible to send messages only to new followers, scraping accounts send the same users to FOLLOW SOURCES and CONTACT TOOL, regardless of whether we follow them.
My suggestion: Choose from which source people will be sent to CONTACT SOURCES and from which they will be sent to FOLLOW SOURCES.
CONTACT TOOL - ONLY SCRAPING USERS FROM MAIN ACC
FOLLOW SOURCES - every else sources
I hope you understand what I mean.
I personally use the option to send messages only to new followers - my message concept is based on thanking me for following me and giving him a discount and so on.
And I don’t want messages to be sent to people who haven’t followed me yet.
The more people send them this suggestion, the sooner they add this new ability to send a message.
The contact tool has an area specifically designed to watch for new followers and generate messages to be sent to those followers at your specifications. I’m not sure what you’re asking that would be different.
Ultimately if you don’t want the scraper sending results to the contact tool of a main if the user doesn’t currently follow you wouldn’t it just be simpler and easier to use the built-in feature in the contact tool?
Sending messages using “USE EXTRACTED USERS” does not provide the ability and filter to send messages only to people following you … it sends messages to all who have been scraped from sources.
I have always used the built-in option “SEND MESSAGES TO NEW FOLLOWERS”, but since EB is no longer working as it should and I keep getting blocks. Therefore, I want to switch to API settings and use scraping users via slave account.
Hey bro! Aren’t you getting the errors “cannot find send message button” on EB and “sorry too many request” on API whenever you send DMs? Care to give some tips? A lot of us are having issues sending DMs right now.
Okay, so I misunderstood you then. I thought you did not have problems sending DM when you said you have no problem sending message with API or with EB.
I use SLAVE ACCOUNTS to extract users to CONTACT TOOL (MAIN ACC), the option “USE EXTRACTED USERS” does not have the ability to send messages only to people who follow you … it sends it to everyone whose scraped from the sources I used. This means that if I only want to send to my followers, I need to scraping MAIN ACCOUNT.
Okey, i never used this “USE EXTRACTED USERS” tool. Please could you exactly point out what you’re trying to do with your slaves and your main ?
Ex : F/U on slaves -> New followers -> Send DM to new followers only -> They go to the main to follow.
(This is the basic idea of M/S)
In order to find a work-around, we need to know exactly what are your steps, because i’m not sure many people use this feature aswell. If you want to have "the ability to send message only to people who follow you", you should go to “SEND MESSAGES TO NEW FOLLOWERS” instead

= I want to change all my accounts from EB to full API activity, because of more real activity + there work DMs correctly. I am using slave accounts to scraping users to follow… but if i want to use this “slave account” to sending users to “CONTACT TOOL” it will be mixed because of different sources than MAIN (followers).
If i want to scrape users for DMs and Follow right now, i have to make 2 slave accounts.
SLAVE = scraping to “FOLLOW SOURCES”
SLAVE = scrapig to “CONTACT TOOL”
I can’t use only 1 slave because it will be mixed from different sources…
Example: Main: Obama - 3000followers
Want to send messages only to followers: so i scrape FOLLOWERS of OBAMA account… extracting users to CONTACT TOOL
BUT, if i add more sources for following “EXTRACT TO FOLLOW SOURCES”, there will be a problem… that messages are also sending to users who they don’t follow me yet.

Can’t use this option when i am using slave account for scrape users to “SEND TO CONTACT TOOL”.
These scraped users are automatically sending from “USE EXTRACTED USERS” to “SEND MESSAGES”… do you understand now???
SEND MESSAGES TO NEW FOLLOWERS = i was using this tool whole the time, if there is no reason… i will not change it LMAO
I think you’re trying to do 2 functions in once, it might be complicated indeed. Did you try to connect twice the account in J ? Like, you got 2 slots for the same accounts/proxy. One will be able to send messages using “USE EXTRACTED USERS” and the other one will use the “SEND MESSAGES TO NEW FOLLOWERS”.
Maybe it can be a temporary solution for you, if you only have 1 main to manage
That is reason why i made this topic… just send e-mail to Jarvee for this update…
I don’t want to make 2 slave accounts for 1 MAIN lol… i am managing 20+ clients
