Operations

Template

Operation Description
List Return a lightweight summary of all available templates
Get Fetch the full definition of a single template by ID

Render

Operation Description
Render by Template ID Render a PNG from a saved template + field data
Render Inline Render a PNG from a full inline template JSON + field data

Both render operations return the PNG as an n8n binary item — pipe it into a Write Binary File, Send Email, or HTTP Request node.

Field Data is a JSON object mapping template field keys to values:

{ "heading": "Hello World", "imageUrl": "https://example.com/photo.jpg" }

Batch

Operation Description
Submit Upload a CSV and template ID to start an async bulk render job
Status Poll a job for progress (status, total, done, files)
Download File Download a single rendered PNG from a completed job

CSV format — first row must be headers matching template field keys:

heading,caption,imageUrl
"Title 1","Subtitle 1","https://..."
"Title 2","Subtitle 2","https://..."

Batch polling pattern — use n8n's built-in Wait node in a loop:

  1. Batch → Submit → get id
  2. Wait (e.g. 10 seconds)
  3. Batch → Status → check status
  4. IF status !== "done" → go back to step 2
  5. Batch → Download File for each entry in files
