Manage LinkedIn accounts through Horizon Data Wave API

Actions8

Overview

This node enables managing LinkedIn posts through the Horizon Data Wave API. Specifically, for the Post resource and Create Post operation, it allows users to create new LinkedIn posts with customizable content, visibility settings, and comment permissions.

Common scenarios where this node is beneficial include:

  • Automating LinkedIn content publishing workflows.
  • Scheduling posts with specific audience targeting.
  • Controlling who can comment on posts to manage engagement.

Practical example:

  • A marketing automation workflow that creates a LinkedIn post visible to all users with comments allowed only from connections.

Properties

Name Meaning
Text The main text content of the LinkedIn post to be created.
Visibility Who can see the post. Options: "Anyone" (public) or "Connections Only".
Comment Scope Who can comment on the post. Options: "All", "Connections Only", or "None".
Timeout Maximum time in seconds to wait for the API response before timing out (default 300s).

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the response from the Horizon Data Wave API after creating the post. This typically includes details about the newly created LinkedIn post such as its unique identifier, status, and metadata returned by the API.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the Horizon Data Wave API via an API key credential configured in n8n.
  • The API key must have permissions to manage LinkedIn accounts and create posts.
  • Network access to https://api.horizondatawave.ai is required.

Troubleshooting

  • Error: No credentials provided!
    Ensure that the API key credential for Horizon Data Wave API is properly set up and connected in n8n.

  • Error: Account ID is missing in credentials!
    Verify that the credential contains a valid account ID associated with the LinkedIn account.

  • Timeouts or slow responses
    Adjust the "Timeout" property to allow more time for the API to respond if network latency is high.

  • API errors related to permissions or invalid parameters
    Double-check the values for "Visibility" and "Comment Scope" to ensure they conform to allowed options. Also verify that the "Text" field is not empty.
