Hi !
I try to post new X (Twitter) Posts with medias and I have an issue with X oauth authentification.
I have succesfully connected my X API v2 credentials with n8n but when I try with X API v1.1 credentials (aka X oauth API), I can’t input my credentials and therefore try uploading a media on X.

When “Connect my account” is selected, the following error occurs :

oauth error 401
oauth error 401321×119 7.18 KB

It seems weird to not being able to put my credentials before connexion and I didn’t have any problem with X oauth2 API.

For references, this post shows it worked in january: How to automate Tweet publication (Text + Image) on X from n8n!

Thanks for your advices

  • n8n version:
  • Database (default: SQLite):
  • n8n EXECUTIONS_PROCESS setting (default: own, main):
  • Running n8n via (Docker, npm, n8n cloud, desktop app):
  • Operating system:

For the v1 API, please use an HTTP request node and a generic OAuth2 credential. I’ve followed that tutorial myself and found it to be accurate.
