Medium credentials#

You can use these credentials to authenticate the following nodes:

Medium API no longer supported

Medium has stopped supporting the Medium API. These credentials still appear within n8n, but you can't configure new integrations using them.

Prerequisites#

Supported authentication methods#

  • API access token
  • OAuth2

Refer to Medium's API documentation for more information about the service.

Using API access token#

To configure this credential, you'll need:

  • An API Access Token: Generate a token in Settings > Security and apps > Integration tokens. Use the integration token this generates as your n8n Access Token.

Refer to the Medium API Self-issued access tokens documentation for more information.

Using OAuth2#

To configure this credential, you'll need:

  • A Client ID
  • A Client Secret

To generate a Client ID and Client Secret, you'll need access to the Developers menu. From there, create a new application to generate the Client ID and Secret.

Use these settings for your new application:

  • Select OAuth 2 as the Authorization Protocol
  • Copy the OAuth Callback URL from n8n and use this as the Callback URL in Medium.
