Setup Reference

Detailed reference for configuring your n8n workflows with Cue.

Finding Your IDs

With the Cue community node, you typically don't need to manually find IDs - the dropdowns show your profiles and accounts directly. But if you need IDs for expressions or the Code node:

Profile ID

Enable Developer Mode in Settings > API, then use Copy ID from the profile menu in Settings > Profiles.

Or fetch via API:

curl https://api.oncue.so/v1/profiles \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer cue_sk_your_key_here"

Social Account IDs

With Developer Mode enabled, use Copy ID from the account menu in Settings > Profiles.

Or list via API:

curl https://api.oncue.so/v1/social-accounts \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer cue_sk_your_key_here"

Creating an API Key

1. Log in to Cue
2. Go to Settings > API
3. Click New Key
4. Give it a descriptive name (e.g., "n8n production")
5. Copy the key immediately - you won't see it again

See Authentication for more details.

API Request Format

The Cue node handles request formatting automatically. For reference, the underlying API uses this format:

{
  "profileId": "prf_xxx",
  "platforms": {
    "sac_twitter_xxx": {
      "items": [{ "content": "Hello Twitter!" }]
    },
    "sac_linkedin_xxx": {
      "items": [{ "content": "Hello LinkedIn!" }]
    }
  },
  "scheduledAt": "2025-01-15T10:00:00Z"
}
