This is useful for scenarios where you want to analyze or display the people you follow on Substack, such as building a follower management tool or integrating followee data into other workflows.

Use Case Examples

  1. Retrieve full profile details of all followees to display in a dashboard.
  2. Get only the user IDs of followees to use in a targeted marketing campaign.

Output

JSON

Troubleshooting

  • If the node returns an error about unknown operation or resource, verify that the resource is set to 'Profile' and operation to 'Get Followees'.
  • If the API returns an error or empty data, check the validity of the Substack API credentials and ensure the authenticated user has followees.
  • If the limit parameter is set too high, the API might throttle or reject the request; try lowering the limit.
