How to Integrate the MarketingBlocks API with n8n

✅ Step 1: Get Your Bearer Token

Before starting, you'll need a valid API token:

• Visit: https://app.marketingblocks.ai/api-token/

• Copy the generated token that begins with mab_...

---

✅ Step 2: Create a New Workflow in n8n

1. Open your n8n editor.

2. Click the “+” icon to add a new node.

3. Select HTTP Request as the node type.

✅ Step 3: Configure HTTP Request Node

Fill in the following details to call the MarketingBlocks API:

• HTTP Method: GET / POST / etc. (depending on the endpoint you're calling)

• URL: Example: https://app.marketingblocks.ai/api/v1/social-sparks/create-post or https://app.marketingblocks.ai/api/v1/social-sparks/get-channels

• Authentication:

  • Choose: None (since we’ll use custom headers)

• Headers: Add a header with:

  Key: Authorization
  Value: Bearer mab_xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

• Response Format: JSON

• Request Body (for POST requests): Switch Body Content Type to JSON and fill out parameters based on the endpoint.

---

✅ Step 4: Test the Connection

Click “Execute Node” to test the request. If everything is set up correctly, you’ll receive a response from the API.

---

✅ Optional: Reuse Token Across Multiple Requests

If you're building a more complex workflow:

1. Store your token in an Environment Variable or a Set node.

2. Use {{ $json["your_token_field"] }} in the Authorization header field.

✅ Rate Limiting Notice

• The API is rate-limited to 100 requests per second per token.

• Avoid loops or large parallel runs that exceed this limit.
