Hi,
I’m brand new to creating with n8n and I am working with the Virtual AI Influencer template. I just set it up with my new X/Twitter credentials and executed the workflow a few times, but did not see the post to my X account. What might I be doing wrong?
It seems like my X account is connected correctly and the workflow shows successful output. It just doesn’t show up on my X account. I created both a new X account and also an X Developer account with a corresponding app. I was able to activate the app successfully and connect it to the n8n workflow. For the website URL field in my X Developer account, I just used https://bleie.app.n8n.cloud since I wasn’t sure what else to put. There is no error message.
Sorry this is such a beginner question. Thanks for the help in advance!
Here is the output from the last node:

Hi Nick,
Thanks so much for getting back to me! I learned that when I tested the workflow or tried to manually kick off the workflow, that it would not post to my X/Twitter account. However, after 6 hours passed, new posts started appearing on my X/Twitter account as you shared above. Is there any way for me to manually kick off this workflow, or test it so that I can get a post to instantly appear? How can I do this in the future so that I have a quicker feedback loop on my progress?
I know I could adjust the time down to a smaller interval, but I’m wanting instantaneous testing feedback, where I can force a post to appear right away. Any thoughts you have on this would be much appreciated, and thank you once again for your help!
Hmm. I think for testing purposes, try just disconnecting the ‘Scheduled Posting’ node (just click on the link and delete it, no need to delete the actual node) then try clicking on the ‘Test workflow’ button and verify that it works.
If it does, try reconnecting the Schedule node and see if it continues to work. I will have to look at it some more but it seems there may be some unexpected behaviour around the order in which you connected the triggers. Do let me know if that sorts out the issue for you!
Just so you know, the ‘test workflow’ button should also trigger the ‘Schedule’ button if that is the only trigger you have, so you may be able to get around using the manual trigger entirely.
