Actions18

Overview

The node integrates with the LATE social media management platform, enabling users to schedule and manage posts across multiple social networks such as Twitter/X, Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, TikTok, YouTube, and Threads. Specifically, the "Delete" operation under the "Social Accounts" resource allows users to disconnect a linked social media account from their LATE profile. This action removes the account linkage within LATE but does not delete the actual social media account on the respective platform.

This node is beneficial for users who want to manage their connected social accounts programmatically, for example:

  • Removing outdated or unused social media accounts from their LATE dashboard.
  • Automating cleanup of social accounts when managing multiple profiles.
  • Integrating account disconnection into broader workflow automations.

Properties

Name Meaning
Account ID The unique identifier of the social media account to disconnect. This ID can be obtained from the 'List' operation. Disconnecting removes the account from your LATE profile but does not delete the actual social media account. This property is required.

Output

The node outputs JSON data representing the result of the delete operation. Typically, this will include confirmation that the specified social media account has been disconnected from the user's LATE profile. The exact structure depends on the API response but generally includes status information and possibly metadata about the disconnected account.

No binary data output is indicated in the source code.

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 all requests.
  • Proper authentication credentials must be configured in n8n to authorize API calls.

Troubleshooting

  • Invalid Account ID: If the provided Account ID does not exist or is incorrect, the API may return an error indicating the account was not found. Verify the Account ID by using the 'List' operation before attempting deletion.
  • Authentication Errors: Missing or invalid API credentials will cause authorization failures. Ensure the API key credential is correctly set up and has sufficient permissions.
  • Network Issues: Connectivity problems to the LATE API endpoint can cause request failures. Check network access and proxy settings if applicable.
  • API Rate Limits: Excessive requests might trigger rate limiting. Implement retries with backoff or reduce request frequency.
