Medium Node: "Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials?" after update

Hi everyone!

I am running into an error in my workflow and was hoping someone might be able to help me.

I am using the Medium node in n8n (self-hosted). The integration token is correct—I have verified it multiple times. The workflow used to work fine earlier, but after updating n8n, it suddenly stopped working.

I tested the same integration token in Make.com, and it works there without any issues.

I am getting the following error message:
Forbidden - perhaps check your credentials?

Information on my n8n setup

  • n8n version: 1.83.2 (Self-hosted)
  • Node type: n8n-nodes-base.medium (Version 1 - Latest)
  • Database: SQLite
  • Running n8n via: Docker
  • Operating system: Debian

Any help would be appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Hey, could you ctl a, ctl c on your entire workflow, and click the ‘</>’ button in the forums response and paste the workflow between the backticks that appear?

That would help give some more context on what is happening.

Do you mind sending a screenshot of the creds page as well (blue/remove half of keys tho)

Yes ofcourse!

Here is the workflow:

I am connecting to my Medium account through an integration token. This token was working fine earlier but then suddenly stopped working. It is still working on make.com though.

Here is a picture of the credentials page:

Additionally, I get the following error everytime. Seems like cloudflare is blocking my access to Medium through n8n.

Forgot to add picture of the error:

It’s not letting me copy/paste the error unfortunately.

Medium only has an access token? Interesting.

The error leads me to believe the URL the medium node is trying to access doesnt exist or is wrong.

Does creating a request via HTTP node work with the access token instead?
