The n8n node puts seven PostQueen operations on your canvas, from scheduling a post to generating a video with AI. It talks to the same public API as the CLI and MCP, so everything a workflow schedules lands on the same calendar you already review.
One content source, every channel: an n8n workflow fans a post out through PostQueen

​
Install

The node requires n8n running on Node.js 20.15 or newer.
  1. Open Settings.
  2. Choose Community Nodes.
  3. Click Install.
  4. Enter n8n-nodes-postqueen as the npm package name.
  5. Click Install again to confirm.

​
Credentials

Two fields and the node is talking to your account: Create a new PostQueen API credential in n8n, paste your key, and set the host if you self-host. n8n validates the credential against a live endpoint when you save, so a typo shows up immediately.
Self-hosting? The Host value must end with /api, for example https://postqueen.example.com/api. Without that suffix the node cannot reach your instance’s API.

​
Check it before you build anything

Drop a PostQueen node into a blank workflow, choose Get Channels, and execute the node on its own.
Your connected channels come back as JSON with their ids. Doing this first separates a credential problem from a workflow problem, which is much harder to tell apart later.
The key or the host. Check the key is pasted in full, and if you self-host, that Host ends with /api. Without that suffix the request lands on the web interface rather than the API, which fails without explaining itself.
Community nodes need n8n restarted before they show up. If it is still missing after a restart, check whether your n8n allows community nodes at all, since some hosted plans restrict them.
Check the date. Nothing validates that it is in the future, so a past date is accepted and goes out on the next pass. Send ISO 8601 in UTC.

​
Operations

Seven operations cover everything the node can do:

​
Fields on Generate Video

Need the list of voices? Run Video Function with the function name loadVoices and the identifier of the video type you plan to use, such as image-text-slides. Both fields are required on that operation.
There is no PostQueen trigger node. Triggers come from n8n itself: a Schedule trigger, an RSS feed, or a webhook. Form submissions work too. Any of them can start a workflow that ends with a new post on your calendar.

​
Workflow ideas

Blog on autopilot. An RSS trigger watches your blog, an AI node writes a caption for each new article, and Create Post schedules it to every channel you have connected. You publish the article and walk away: she carries it out to every feed while you write the next one.
An RSS trigger, an AI caption, then Create Post: your blog promotes itself
A video channel that grows overnight. A daily Schedule trigger runs Generate Video with your prompt, as veo3 or image-text-slides, vertical or horizontal. Add a voiceover if you want one. Create Post then queues the finished video to your channel, so a new upload is waiting every morning whether you opened your laptop or not. Video generation is not something the postqueen CLI offers, so this node is where you reach for it without writing code.
A daily schedule, Generate Video, then Create Post: a channel that fills itself overnight
One clip, three short-form feeds. A new video lands in Drive, Dropbox or S3, Upload File brings it in, and a single Create Post schedules it to TikTok, Instagram and YouTube together.
Upload first and pass the returned path into the post. Those three networks only accept media from trusted domains, so linking a raw external URL will not work.
A new video file, Upload File, then one Create Post for TikTok, Reels and Shorts
Queue guard. Every Monday, Get Posts pulls the next seven days of your calendar. If the queue looks thin, a Slack message tells you before your followers notice a gap.
Monday check: if the week ahead looks empty, a Slack message reaches you first
A launch announced from a spreadsheet. A row lands in the sheet your team already fills in, and Create Post turns it into the announcement across every channel. Nobody opens PostQueen.
A new sheet row describing a product launch becoming a scheduled PostQueen announcement
Bring the good ones back. A Friday Schedule trigger picks a post that did well, and Create Post puts it back on the calendar for a quieter slot next week.
A weekly schedule trigger feeding a past post back into PostQueen for another slot
She runs on your terms. Leave her alone and she is a true autopilot: whatever lands on the calendar goes out on time without another word from you.
Want a closer look first? Everything is visible on the calendar before it publishes, and setting Create Post to draft saves the post without scheduling it, so it stays there until you publish it.
