n8n Integration

Notipo works as a drop-in publishing engine inside n8n workflows. Instead of building dozens of nodes to handle markdown conversion, image caching, WordPress uploads, featured image generation, and SEO metadata — you call one API endpoint and Notipo handles everything.

Setup

Before using the API from n8n, connect Notipo to your Notion database and WordPress site. This is a one-time setup done through the Notipo dashboard or via API:

# 1. Register
POST /api/auth/register
  { email, password }

# 2. Log in and get your API key
POST /api/auth/login
  { email, password }
  → returns apiKey

# 3. Connect Notion
PUT /api/settings/notion
  { notionToken, databaseId }

# 4. Connect WordPress
PUT /api/settings/wordpress
  { siteUrl, username, password }

In n8n, create a Header Auth credential with the name X-API-Key and your API key as the value. Use this credential on all HTTP Request nodes that call Notipo.

Trigger a Sync

The simplest Notipo workflow in n8n — trigger an immediate Notion poll on a schedule:

Notipo already polls automatically every 5 minutes and listens for Notion webhooks, so you don't need this workflow for normal use. It's useful when you want to trigger a sync from another event — like when an Airtable row is updated or a form is submitted.

AI Agent Workflow

The most powerful pattern: use an AI agent to generate content, write it to Notion, then let Notipo handle the publishing pipeline to WordPress. The workflow keeps a human review step in Notion before anything goes live.

Notipo picks up the page when you change its status in Notion and handles the rest — Gutenberg conversion, image uploads, featured image generation, SEO metadata, and WordPress publishing.

For a fully automated flow with no human review, set the Notion page status to Post to Wordpress or Publish directly from n8n, then call POST /api/sync-now to trigger an immediate pickup instead of waiting for the next poll.

Monitor Jobs

After triggering a sync, check job status to confirm success or catch failures:

Each job includes a steps array showing what was completed and an error field on failure. The postTitle field identifies which post the job belongs to.

This workflow handles the full editorial pipeline — from a content brief in Airtable to a live WordPress post — with Notipo doing all the heavy lifting on the publishing side.
