How I Manage 50+ Accounts Across Platforms Using n8n

Hey everyone :wave:

I wanted to share a setup that’s been a game-changer for me: using n8n to help manage and automate tasks across 50+ accounts spread over platforms like Facebook, TikTok, Amazon, and more.


:dart: The Problem

Managing multiple accounts sounds simple until you run into:

  • Repetitive manual logins
  • Account blocks from suspicious activity
  • Getting flagged for using the same device/IP
  • Needing to scrape/update data daily at scale

I tried browser extensions, basic proxies, even headless automation — but things kept breaking, or accounts got flagged.


:gear: My Current Setup

Here’s what I’m doing now — fully automated with n8n:

  1. Each account runs in its own browser environment
    → Separate sessions, cookies, user agents, IPs
    → Prevents platforms from linking accounts
  2. n8n orchestrates all automation jobs
    → Triggers based on schedule, webhook, or data change
    → Sends tasks (like log in, update, scrape, monitor) to the correct environment
  3. Data is pulled & stored cleanly
    → I use Notion, Google Sheets, or internal dashboards
    → Error handling via n8n’s built-in retry + custom notifications

:lock: Identity Isolation (Without Overcomplicating It)

Each request in n8n is routed through a dedicated environment that simulates a real browser with its own fingerprint.
I’m not using Selenium or heavy VMs — just lightweight, controllable browser containers.

This keeps accounts safe, and lets me scale without juggling 100 Chrome profiles manually :sweat_smile:


:bulb: Tips

  • Delay and randomize task timing — helps mimic human behavior
  • Store session cookies securely for faster future runs
  • Add labels/tags in your workflows to keep track of which account does what
  • Monitor for behavioral anomalies (account A suddenly changes IP → alert)

:pushpin: Still Improving…

Right now I’m working on integrating captchas + 2FA handling via API to make the flow even more hands-free.


:speaking_head: Curious…

Has anyone else here built similar multi-account automation with n8n?
How do you handle browser isolation or anti-bot detection in your workflows?

Would love to hear your approach or tools you’ve used alongside n8n!

I’m working on something similar with 20+ ad accounts. I totally relate to the pain of managing logins and IP issues :sweat_smile:
Haven’t tried routing through isolated environments yet — sounds like a smart move.
Would love to see how you set that up with n8n!

Hi Vincatle, amazing setup — really inspiring.

I’m also working on multi-account automation, specifically posting via API to around 100 X (formerly Twitter) accounts. I’m facing some similar challenges to the ones you described.

In my case, all posts are fully automated through the API, but every 2 to 4 days I need to manually log into all those accounts — either due to session expiration, verification checks, or other security-related issues — and that’s become a major bottleneck.

I had a question about your setup: when you mention “managing the accounts,” which exact processes are automated beyond posting? Are you handling everything via API, or are you using a virtualized browser environment for logins or session handling?

You mentioned that each account runs in its own browser environment — is that mostly for login/session purposes, or are you also using that approach for tasks like scraping or session maintenance?

If you could explain a bit more about how the isolated environments work and how n8n orchestrates it all, I’d really appreciate it! I’m trying to move away from manually managing dozens of Chrome profiles, and your setup sounds like a much smarter alternative.

Thanks! I use virtualized browser containers mainly for login/session handling and scraping — API is great, but not always enough.

Each environment runs with isolated IPs, cookies, and fingerprint, and n8n handles orchestration (logins, tasks, retries, etc.).

If you’re looking to move away from Chrome profiles and want a more stable setup, feel free to DM me — happy to share details privately.

I’m curious — for the browser environments you’re running per account, are you spinning them up dynamically or keeping persistent sessions over time?
Also wondering how you handle 2FA or SMS verifications in cases where platforms randomly trigger them — is that part of your automation too?
Thanks for sharing this — it’s super helpful for those of us scaling past 10–20 accounts.
