Meta title and meta description with N8N

    Hi there,

    WIth N8N, is this possible to retrieve meta description and title from a N8N’s node and update a post with a HTTP’s request’s node ?

    I’ve tried with this :

    {"meta": {
    "rank_math_description": "{{ $json['META DESCRIPTION'] }}",
    "rank_math_title": "{{ $json['META TITLE'] }}"
    }
    }

    In the N8N HTTP Request node, I’ve tried with the JSON and the “field below” method, but no success.

    The connexion with my WordPress is OK because the update of slug, featured image and title is ok. It’s just the meta I can’t succeed to update.

    I can’t use a WordPress node beacause I have to enter the URL dynamically, so I have to use a HTTP request node

    Have you some ideas for resolving this scenario ?

    Have a nice day !

    Hello @fantou,
     
    Thank you so much for getting in touch.
     
    At the moment, Rank Math’s REST API doesn’t support updating metadata like meta title and description via external tools such as n8n. To achieve this, you’ll need to create a custom REST API endpoint in WordPress that can handle and save Rank Math metadata using WordPress functions like update_post_meta($post_id, 'rank_math_title', 'VALUE').

    Hello @rankmathsupport ,

    Thanks for your reply. But with Make/Integromat, I’ve succeed to update meta-data with the WordPress’s node.

    So in this case, it does not work because I’m using a “http request”‘s node ? Or is it that N8N is not compatible like Make ?

    Hello @fantou,
     
    The problem is that the keys from our plugin and not registered immediately. That’s why when people want to update them with the REST API, they need to first register them, which can be the case here.
     
    To register the keys for the API, something similar to this can be followed: https://gist.github.com/junaidtk/278ef494704c0694a27e7e5031f364c3
