Hi guys,
I have automated my X account (X OAuth 2) with my N8N workflow. Everything is working well and I post one image with each tweet.
I’m now trying to do an X post using TWO images as part of my workflow. But it looks like the media ID string cannot use two of them. Any idea or template to share on how to overcome this?
Thanks!
For posting multiple images on X/Twitter using the X OAuth 2 node, you’ll need to upload each image separately and combine their media IDs into an array. Here’s how:
1. Use the “Upload Media” node for each image to get their individual media IDs.
2. In the “Post” node, set the “Media IDs” field to an array containing both IDs, like this:
```json
[“media_id_1”, “media_id_2”]
```
Make sure to connect the media upload nodes before the post node in your workflow.
Are you using the Media ID or Media ID String?
Here is what I have done :
{{ [$(‘Uploading’).item.json.media_id_string, $(‘Uploading1’).item.json.media_id_string] }}
I’m pretty beginner thanks for your understanding
Hello!
Yes, I am using the X node ( X - Create tweet). What is the solution to post without the X node? An HTTP request?
Thx!
This is excellent. Thanks so much!
I had a system running X posts, through X. then i switched and tested some outside platforms. Way better for me. These are decent: GetXapi. Cheap. I like his docs on the Create Tweet api. I usually only post one image to X - but you can post multiple and video and the api does all the uploading FOR you.
Another api i mentioned before was twitterapi.io but I use GetXapi.com now. I believe proxy optional.
GetXapi requires an “auth_token” which is obtained by using their User Login api. I mean using it once; lasts a while.
**Attached is partial workflow section of: Content - Get your auth_token that you store in (Ggl Sheets) - GetXapi X Post
then… if / as needed Retry logic to obtain a new auth_token; Login - overwrite Ggl Sheet - loop back to try post again. Two retries (three total attempts) before the condition turns “False.” Maybe one Retry better. Your telegram, slack, or whathaveyou notifications can come off that failure, and off the Switch node. I like to get updates on the X posting; its so touchy.
