Help needed: Uploading image from OpenAI to Microfeed cms

[stevie]

Hi everyone,

I’m trying to upload an image generated by OpenAI to microfeed using n8n.
The problem is that OpenAI returns the image as binary data, but microfeed requires a URL for the image.

Output from OpenAI

Input Required for microfeed API

Post using HTTP node

{
  "title": "Test Image",
  "status": "published",
  "attachment": {
    "category": "image",
    "url": "???",
    "mime_type": "image/png",
  }
}

I’m stuck trying to figure out how to convert or host the binary image so that I can pass a valid URL to microfeed.

Any ideas or guidance would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance

Information on your n8n setup

• n8n version: 1.88
• Running n8n via n8n cloud,

Hi @stevie,

I use a code node to update the file name. It works when sending the image via email. Should also work for your upload.

Best,
