403 Error when trying to submit a template

Describe the problem/error/question

trying to submit a template but always got an error saying

There was a problem creating the workflow: FetchError: [POST] “https://api.n8n.io/api/workflows”: Failed to fetch

tried to clear cache, re log in and error stays the same, i can still see my other published workflows and update my profile, and delete my template, but submitting workflow just does not work

What is the error message (if any)?

There was a problem creating the workflow: FetchError: [POST] “https://api.n8n.io/api/workflows”: Failed to fetch

This was answered here: Can´t upload my n8n template

I removed all suspicious template variables and anything else that could contribute to the error - the workflow is quite big but stripped from all the ‘suspicious’ parts.
Yet I’m still getting this issue. Just want to clarify - can the template description field also cause issues just like the workflow field?

Also when I visit my public profile at https://creators.n8n.io/cometai, it appears as not existing after 48h since last update. Is this an issue, too?

Resolved this. My issue was that I had some template variable examples and markdown links in my workflow description field, not the workflow field itself.

Don’t know which precisely fixed it, but getting rid of both made the request go through.

Hey, glad to hear you solved it! Yes - the template description falls under the same scrutiny as the workflow JSON.

Your profile will show up online once you have at least one template approved and published.
