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 programmatically. This is useful for automating content publishing on LinkedIn profiles or company pages.

Common scenarios include:

  • Scheduling and posting updates or announcements automatically.
  • Posting marketing content or job openings without manual intervention.
  • Controlling post visibility and comment permissions dynamically based on audience targeting.

Example: Automatically create a LinkedIn post with specific text visible to all connections, allowing comments only from connections.

Properties

Name Meaning
Text The main content of the LinkedIn post (string).
Visibility Who can see the post. Options: "Anyone" (public), "Connections Only" (only your network).
Comment Scope Who can comment on the post. Options: "All", "Connections Only", "None".
Timeout Request timeout in seconds (number).

Output

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

If multiple posts are created in batch mode, the output will be an array of such JSON objects.

No binary data output is produced by this operation.

Dependencies

  • Requires an API key credential for the Horizon Data Wave LinkedIn Management API.
  • The node uses the Horizon Data Wave API endpoint https://api.horizondatawave.ai/api/linkedin/management/post.
  • Proper account ID must be present in the credentials.
  • Network connectivity to the Horizon Data Wave API service is required.

Troubleshooting

  • No credentials provided!
    Ensure that the API key credential is configured correctly in n8n before running the node.

  • Account ID is missing in credentials!
    Verify that the credential contains a valid account ID associated with your Horizon Data Wave account.

  • API errors with HTTP status codes
    The node surfaces detailed error messages including HTTP status, API error headers, request IDs, and execution times. Common issues might be invalid parameters, insufficient permissions, or rate limiting.

  • Timeouts
    Adjust the "Timeout" property if requests take longer than expected.

  • Continue On Fail
    If enabled, the node will return error details in the output instead of stopping execution, which helps in debugging workflows.
