[New Node] n8n-nodes-thumbapi — Thumbnail Generation from a Title

Built with n8n
1

Hey :waving_hand:

Just published a community node I’ve been working on: n8n-nodes-thumbapi.

It wraps the ThumbAPI generate endpoint — send a title, get back a
platform-ready thumbnail (YouTube, Instagram, X / Twitter, blog covers,
LinkedIn, OG images). One drop-in node replaces the usual HTTP Request +
Code node setup.

Install

Settings → Community Nodes → Install → n8n-nodes-thumbapi

What’s nice about it

  • “Use Public Test Key” toggle — verify the integration end-to-end
    without signup or credit usage. Drop the node, flip the toggle, click
    Run, see a placeholder back in ~2 seconds. Useful for wiring a workflow
    before committing.
  • Binary output by default — the base64 image response is decoded
    automatically, so the output pipes straight into Drive / S3 / WordPress /
    Slack / YouTube without needing a Code node.
  • Inline dashboard notices — when you enable “Use Saved Photo” or
    “Use Saved Logo”, the node tells you exactly where to upload that asset
    with a clickable link.
  • Photo ember, logo embed, custom reference dataset support — all
    toggle-able in the node UI.

Handy node - the use case I immediately see is dropping this right after a title generation step in an AI content pipeline, so the thumbnail gets created automatically without any manual HTTP Request setup. The public test key toggle is a smart touch for quick prototyping before committing to a paid key.
