Anyone willing to share with me their Pixelfed flow for posting?

Describe the problem/error/question

I think I have the credentials working since my credential appears to have connected. However, I’ve tried to get my post to work but hit the following error.
I’m reposting since I don’t think I did the past of the node correctly.

What is the error message (if any)?

NodeApiError: The service was not able to process your request at Object.execute (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/n8n-nodes-base/dist/nodes/HttpRequest/V3/HttpRequestV3.node.js:1620:35) at processTicksAndRejections (node:internal/process/task_queues:95:5) at Workflow.runNode (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/n8n-workflow/dist/Workflow.js:728:19) at /usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/n8n-core/dist/WorkflowExecute.js:664:53 at /usr/local/lib/node_modules/n8n/node_modules/n8n-core/dist/WorkflowExecute.js:1073:20

Please share your workflow

Information on your n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.42.1
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app): Docker
  • Operating system: Synology

Their API docs are a little hard to find, but it seems this is it.

I notice two things:

  1. The Authorization: Bearer {token} definition uses capitals, and youre not. Perhaps they’re case-sensitive?
  2. The media_ids[] array is defined as required if you’re not creating a reply to another post. Can you post to pixelfed without providing an image?

Hope this helps!

Thank you! Your update was key to me understanding things a bit better and I was able to get my flow working so I can scrape my Mastedon instance update over to Pixelfed. Now trying to understand how to use Webhooks to trigger the flow.
