n8n is an open-source workflow automation tool. The official community node package, n8n-nodes-social-media-scheduler, lets you wire Social media studio into any n8n workflow — schedule posts, manage drafts and comments, triage your inbox, generate AI captions, images, and videos, pull analytics, and react to events in real time.

The two nodes

The package ships two nodes. Both authenticate with the same Social media studio API credential. The Trigger node manages its own webhook subscription automatically: it registers a subscription when the workflow is activated, removes it when deactivated, and verifies every incoming delivery with HMAC-SHA256 so you can trust the payload originated from Social media studio.

Authentication

Both nodes use a single API key credential.
1

Create an API key

In the Social media studio dashboard, go to Settings → API Keys and create a key. See Authentication for details.
2

Add the credential in n8n

In n8n, create a new Social media studio API credential and paste your key. The key is sent as the X-API-Key header on every request.
Self-hosting Social media studio? Override the credential’s Base URL to point at your own instance. The default is https://api.so-me.studio.
