Authentication
This node uses the pyLoad API credential. In n8n, go to Credentials → New, pick
pyLoad API, and fill in:
- Base URL — the address of your instance, e.g.
http://pyload:8000(no trailing slash). - Username — your account username.
- Password — your account password.
The node signs in with your username/password automatically on each run.
Where to find it: See the service documentation: https://docs.pyload.net/
The credential's Test button verifies the connection before you save.
Usage
- Add the PyLoad node to a workflow (after a trigger such as When clicking 'Test workflow' or a Schedule Trigger).
- Select your pyLoad API credential.
- Pick an Operation and run the workflow — the response is returned as JSON for the next node.
Compatibility
Requires n8n 1.0 or newer. Built and linted with the official @n8n/node-cli, and
published to npm with a build-provenance attestation.
