LATE

Schedule and manage social media posts across multiple platforms with LATE - the professional social media management platform supporting Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Threads

Actions18

Overview

This node integrates with the LATE social media management platform, allowing users to schedule and manage social media posts across multiple platforms such as Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Threads. Specifically, the "Delete Profile" operation under the "Profiles" resource enables users to remove a social media profile from their LATE account. This is useful for cleaning up unused or obsolete profiles, managing access, or reorganizing social media accounts within the platform.

Practical example: If you have connected several social media profiles to LATE but no longer want to manage one of them through the platform, you can use this node operation to delete that profile by specifying its unique identifier.

Properties

Name Meaning
Profile ID The unique identifier of the profile you want to delete. You can obtain this ID from the 'List Profiles' operation. This property is required.

Output

The output JSON will typically contain confirmation details about the deletion operation. This may include status messages or metadata confirming that the specified profile has been successfully deleted. The exact structure depends on the API response from LATE but generally confirms the success or failure of the deletion request.

No binary data output is expected from this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an active connection to the LATE API via an API key credential.
  • The node uses the base URL https://getlate.dev/api/v1 for API requests.
  • Proper authentication credentials must be configured in n8n to authorize API calls.

Troubleshooting

  • Common issues:

    • Providing an invalid or non-existent Profile ID will result in an error indicating that the profile could not be found.
    • Missing or incorrect API credentials will cause authentication failures.
    • Network connectivity issues may prevent the node from reaching the LATE API endpoint.

  • Error messages and resolutions:

    • "Profile not found": Verify that the Profile ID is correct and was obtained from a valid 'List Profiles' operation.
    • "Authentication failed": Check that the API key credential is correctly set up and has the necessary permissions.
    • Timeout or network errors: Ensure stable internet connectivity and that the LATE API service is operational.
