How To Setup And Create Your Social Media Automation Project & Campaign

This is the first and required step for using socialappfarm successfully. I.e

2. Creating a project so we can get our reporting,
3. Create Automation Campaign
4. Importing Accounts to our campaign

Chapter 1: Setting Up Your Proxy and Accounts

Since we’ll run many accounts, a proxy is essential for stability and safety.

Recommended Proxy Types

• Best: 4G/5G Mobile Proxy
• Good: ISP or Residential Proxy (cost-effective and reliable)

👉 Ratio: 1 proxy for every 1–3 accounts (max 4).
For 25 accounts, buy around 8 proxies.

Step 1: Adding or Importing Proxies

   • Host: 1.1.1.1
   • Port: 8080
   • Username: user
   • Password: pass
   • Tag: automation
   • Proxy Type: HTTP or Socks5
   • Proxy Change URL: (if you only have one proxy and its supports automatica rotation through url input the url)
3. For bulk import, create a proxy.txt file: username1:password1:1.1.1.1:8080:automation username2:password2:1.1.1.2:8080:automation

Step 4: Importing Accounts

For both TikTok and Instagram, repeat these steps:

Note: Only username is important when adding or Importing your account but socialappfarm can help you auto login if you include your password, it can also retrieve code from email if your email has imap access and also generate 2fa code if you include your 2fa key.

1. On the created campaign, click View Accounts → Import. (You can also add your account ony by one by clicking on Add New and fill in the account info)

1. Format your bulk import (CSV or TXT): username:password:email:emailpassword:biolink:bio:2fakey (Example below)
   • username1::::::
   • username2:pass2:::::2faKey2

1. Upload and import.
2. Then go to the Campaign again and click Accounts → Auto Assign by Proxy Tag, input your tag (e.g., automation), and confirm.
   Proxies will now be evenly distributed to all accounts.

Step 5: Logging Into Accounts

1. Open your campaign and click Connect Device
   • (Important : Connect from the campaign page, not the device list).

1. On the device stream page, click Start App, then log in manually.
2. Click the “+” icon → User Menu → Switch Device Campaign Account, select the next account, and repeat the login.

💡 Note: If you import usernames and passwords, SocialAppFarm will attempt auto-login during automation. If 2FA keys are imported, it will automatically handle two-factor authentication as well and email codes for imap enabled email
